Why do we need to take praying very seriously

[Patrice Yemmene]

My Beloved,

When you begin to pray and begin to take prayer seriously,  every domain of your life begins to enter into the favor of God.  Your finances become Kingdom finances.  Your health becomes Kingdom health.  Your children become Kingdom children.  There is peace inside that nothing can take away. 

You turn to the right and you turn into blessing.  You turn to the left and you turn into blessing.  You turn to the back and you turn into blessing.  You turn ahead and you turn into blessing.  You go down – into blessing.  You jump up – into blessing because, the God to whom you pray comes and envelopes you with Himself.

The one who prays confesses, “I cannot do it!  I am not able to do it!  All of my strength is the strength of the flesh.  It will fail!  All my strength is the power of the flesh. It will fail hopelessly!  I must lay hold on God!  I must lay hold on God, because until God steps in there is no victory.”

It is not possible for a prayerless man to succeed.  A prayerless man is a mocker of God.  He may be very gifted, very, very talented, but somewhere, somehow, he will fail some serious challenges.

Prayer is where the relationship with God is built and cemented.  When you have built a very solid foundation, all the storms cannot shatter it.  And all that the devil plans against you becomes an open door for greater blessings.  You are blessed.  You are just blessed.  Naturally zero, but in God your betters in the world, cannot see the back of your head. 

God has covenanted to work with the praying one!  He has said, “Ask and you will receive; seek and you will find; knock and the door will be opened to you” (Matthew 7:7).  These are the supreme commitments of God.  He says, “Hitherto you have asked nothing in my name.  Ask and you will receive that your joy may be full” (John 16:24).

“Ask and you will receive!”  God says, “You ask!”  That is all.  It is My duty to give.” God says, “You ask.  Ask and keep asking and you will receive and keep receiving.  Ask and it will be given to you!”  He says, “He will do even greater things than these, because I am going to the Father”  (John 14:12b). 

Are you asking those greater things?
