TOPIC: CONTENT OF POWERFUL PRAYER

SCRIPTURE: 16 Confess your faults one to another, and pray one for another, that ye may be healed. The effectual fervent prayer of a righteous man availeth much.
17 Elias was a man subject to like passions as we are, and he prayed earnestly that it might not rain: and it rained not on the earth by the space of three years and six months.
18 And he prayed again, and the heaven gave rain, and the earth brought forth her fruit - James 5:16-18

MEMORY VERSE: Luke 4:1-2

DIGGING DEEP: Prayer is powerful in itself because it is an avenue for interacting with the all powerful God.
A powerful prayer is not an intellectually or emotionally crafted or developed prayer. It is one that moves from our lips like a rocket out of the earth's space into the very presence of God and reverberates back to us with answers.
The pursuit of God is never complete without prayer been involved. Prayer is powerful because it is like fuel that keeps our Spiritual engine running. Any believer that is low on prayer is low in power and is noneffective. Prayer turns you into a hot coal and nothing and not even the devil can not dare come around you or touch you anyhow.
Prayer is powerful because it builds in you capacity to wade off temptation. Jesus had just rounded off a long season of prayer and fasting when the devil appeared and all of his tricks and darts was destroy by just a command. This was possible because any prayer warrior is a commander and the more we pray the more powerful our command becomes. This is because prayer builds fire and authority into our words, so that when it is released it melts any stranger around.
Prayer is an an act of watching to keep your life and godly deposit intact from satanic marauding invaders. A watch to squash satans plot to snatch your divine inheritance from you (1 Peter 4:7).
Let's take a look at some contents of powerful prayer amongst others as revealed from our anchor Scripture:
1. Faults are absent from it: Powerful prayer is made from a heart that is not concealing any form of fault against another person. If you don't forgive, you are simply wasting your time praying. To be able to pray and heaven respond, forgiveness must be present. You must not allow unforgiveness to drag you from your answers.
2. Righteousness: For prayer to be powerful it must come from one who has a right standing with God. The more solid you are in the Lord, the quicker your access to Him and the more powerful your prayer (Proverbs 15:29). 
3. Fervent: Powerful prayer is fervent. That is, it is full of fire. Fervent prayer is to stretch out, to boil and to be full of zeal. It is a type of prayer that will stretch you out of your comfort zone and cause your heart to be full of zeal for God and your spirit to boil. Hence powerful prayer is one which has the capacity to increase your spiritual temperature.
4. Earnest: Powerful prayer is one that has great spiritual gravity; serious purpose and intent.  It is full of all earnestness, reality and actuality (as opposed to jesting or feigned appearance). It has high level fixed determination and eagerness.
 Finally, prayer without intent and earnestness is praying and playing. This is why many are praying and their heart is thinking many other things it is a focusless prayer and so can't drive home or produce answers.
I prayer for you today that the energy of God will take over your heart and your mouth so that your prayers will begin to yield fruits in Jesus' name.

PRAYER: O Lord, thank you for these keys for powerful prayer. I decree and declare that my prayer begins to carry the fire of the Lord in Jesus' name.
