THE EFFICACY OF PRAYER FELLOWSHIP
2 Corinthians 13:14 KJV
“The grace of the Lord Jesus Christ, and the love of God, and the communion of the Holy Ghost, be with you all. Amen”.
The entire God’s House of Refuge family world wide wishes our beloved Lead Pastor – Dr. Dara Ezekiel Atang, a Happy Golden Jubilee… 50 and Favoured. We thank God for your life and join the world to celebrate you today.
To today’s word: there is a reason Jesus never prayed much in public. There are reasons why He didn’t seem to spend too much time in dealing with situations that confronted Him. He would speak to the wind and the sea in few words; “Peace, be still”. He would speak to a very mad man of many years, a man who had legions of demons in him; the demons would not even let him sleep in a house but in a tomb, and all he would say to the thousands of demons is “come out of him”. He spoke in one word “Talitha cumi” and a dead girl come back to life, and all He had to say to the four days old corpse of Lazarus was “come forth”. What manner of man?
The secret of all these is traced to His prayer fellowship with the Father, Jesus had a private life of prayer fellowship on a consistent basis. He would rise a great while before day, and move into a solitary place to fellowship with the Father, sometimes He would pray all night. As a matter of fact, Mount Olives was a regular place for Him, that was a regular meeting point between Him and the father. (Mark 1:35; Luke 6:12; Luke 22:39).
If you touch God privately, He will touch you publicly. If you meet with Him in secret, He will show up for you in the open. When you engage Him intimately, He will be intricately intertwined into your life and affairs on a constant basis. Prayer fellowship is communion between you and the Holy Spirit, and it can happen all day without ceasing. Receive grace for intimate fellowship with the Holy Spirit in Jesus Name.
Action Points
i. Refuse to live life without a consistent prayer fellowship with God from today in Jesus Name.
ii. Subscribe to the help of the Holy Spirit today. Talk to Him as someone who is closer to you than your clothes and He will help you.
Prayer
-Lord, I thank you for this word in Jesus Name.
-Sweet Holy Spirit, please reveal yourself to me in Jesus Name.
-Precious Holy Spirit, please admit me as a student in your school of prayer in Jesus Name.
Nugget
If you meet with God in secret, He will show up for you in the open, and when you engage Him intimately in prayers, He will be intricately intertwined into your life and affairs on a constant basis.
