Welcome to the month of September 2020: Our Month of Prayer

 

He told them a parable to this end that men ought always to pray and not to faint. Luke 18:1. The heaven, even the heavens, are the LORD’S: but the earth hath He given to the children of men. Ps.115:16

Divine appointment greetings family, with mixed feelings in my heart, I welcome you to the Month of September 2020 our Month of Prayer. The Lord gave me this word for the month since last year. As I began to meditate on it again, He made me understand that this month, He wants us to exercise our authority in the place of prayer more than ever before. He said as much as He has all power and wants to intervene in the affairs of the earth to bring some sanity, He cannot breach His word since He has given authority on earth to men. Thus He is calling us to exercise in our office of the priesthood like never before. [Rev.1:5-6]

While I feel excited at God’s call for us to pray because since He has specifically asked for it, He would enable us to fulfill it and will also answer us speedily. I also feel heavy in my heart knowing that some would be using this opportunity to further the devil’s objective to their detriment.

While we are at this, let me use this opportunity to quickly point out that the call to prayer is only for genuine saints who have been redeemed by the blood of the Lamb of God - Jesus Christ and are continuing in His word. [Jn.8:31-32] This call is not for the unity Church. The Lord Jesus Christ said He did not come to bring this kind of worldly peace but a sword. The sword that the Lord brought divides between light and darkness; the holy and the profane, righteousness and unrighteousness. He said His peace He leaves with us; not as the world gives. Thus this call for the unity of all religions towards attaining a one world religion is demonic and absolutely unscriptural as it pertains to the saints of God. The true Church of Jesus Christ will not be part of it. Not even the occultic activities of so called men of God in different denominations will make a true disciple of Jesus Christ participate in it.

Therefore this call is to the true body of Christ as opposed to the harlot feigning the body of Christ; to arise in prayer to expose the deception of these last days and free God’s children to become His servants indeed in the place of prayer and the ministry of the word. It is a very sad thing that these days where there is a great need for the truth, there is a famine of the word around the world. Many are speaking from their deceived and depraved state claiming God is speaking to them when God has not spoken. Some have resorted to using magic wands in Church telling people to focus on it instead of the Lord Jesus Christ who died for us. So many people are experiencing depression and heart failure today because the sheep is not being fed the truth. Sadly, in spite of the unscriptural extended days of corporate fasting and prayers many are still in doubts and confusion asking themselves endless questions and are not getting answers. Many children and young persons have now resorted to seeking substitutes of new age religion and the occult and are now in deep sorrow and regret because of the numerous adversities this lifestyle is exerting on them.

However I have good news from God for you. He has called us to learn the art of praying and getting answers from heaven and also practice it.

Some years ago, we were having a discussion at home one day when one of my brothers asked how we can pray and be sure of the answers before we got off our knees. So we looked at the scriptures for answers and we decided to practice it the next day. The Lord was so faithful to His word that we all got speedy answers that day. Since them, I have endeavored to practice this art of praying and it has gotten better for me by the day.

Therefore, this month, we shall be looking at a theme I call: Praying to the only God who truly answers. I am referring to the God of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob; the God and Father of our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ. We shall by God’s grace, learn what prayer is, why we pray, who we ought to pray to, the different levels of addressing God in prayer; how to pray and get answers from the God who made heaven and earth.  See Jn.8:31-32; Jer.33:3; Lk.18:1-7; Lk.11:1-13 and Mt.6:9-16. Also see the examples of Ana and Simeon who spent years praying for the Messiah to be born. They were rewarded with the answer to their prayer in their life time. 

If you are reading this blog and are not yet saved, please you can start your journey with the Lord today by saying the following prayer out loud in faith and you will be born again:

Heavenly Father,

Have mercy on me a sinner. Today, I believe that Jesus died for me and you raised Him from the dead for my Justification. I therefore declare that Jesus Christ is my Saviour and Lord and from today, I renounce the fatherhood of Satan and embrace Jesus Christ as my Saviour and Lord. Thank you for this father in Jesus’ name! Amen.
