Fiveamprayer, we will review kingdom prayer.  We must keep in mind that the ways of Elohim are where we should focus, instead on the acts of Adonai.  Those who have an understanding of His ways are in a intimate relationship with Him.  We see this with Moses who knew His ways and the children of Israel knew of the acts of Elohim.  That is what we are desiring a closer relationship with our Father and King.  Study and learn of His ways.  The greatest tragedy in our lives is not knowing our purpose.  Purpose is the original intent of the object or person from creation.  A life without purpose is operating outside of Yahweh's intent, to our struggle and confusion.  It is only Yahweh's purpose will stand even over the plans of man.  When the purpose is not known of a thing, it can be misused.

Intercessory prayer is not a ministry that is listed in the Bible.  There was prayer of intercession for others and self but was not to be left to a hand full in the congregation.  This intercession was mostly shown in scripture as a holding fast to Adonai for an answer. Found in many churches the prayer meeting is the lowest in attendance.  Yet we have direction for Yeshua that we are to pray without ceasing.  That when He gave the instruction to the disciples saying, 'when you pray...'  We have here that prayer is not an option but an expectation.  Why the low number of attendance in the prayer meeting?  Have many lost faith in the power of prayer?  He is the All-Powerful One, certainly He does not need my prayers?  Can my prayers really change His mind?  Fiveamprayer, our prayers change us, not Him!  He has set His word above His name and because He is the King of the Universe, even He must obey what He has spoken.  He made us to have dominion here on the Earth.  Our prayer is for His intercession on our behalf.  That if we would be willing vessels for His kingdom to come on Earth as it is in heaven.  The pattern we have with Yeshua, the disciples found that He got up early in the morning before sunrise.  Which would be about 2-3 am in the morning to pray.  Many have noted that they are woken up early in the morning around this same time.  This is Yahweh waking you up to meet with Him in prayer.  The power of prayer we have exhibited by Yeshua was from the time spent in prayer, He was then equipped to go in to the town to heal and deliver.  Will we spend the hours in prayer to be able to heal others in a few moments?  We have to be prepared for ministry.  We must know His way and find that good and right way in His presence.  Spend time alone with Him, to rest, to listen and find what He would give you to do.  To hear more of this teaching click here.
