LIGHT WORD

LightWord: “And blessed is she that believed: for there shall be a performance of those things which were told her from the Lord.” Luke 1:45 Matthew 9 gives us an account of the healing of two blind men by Jesus. Notice that He did not ask them for the genesis of their issues. Many of us have the idea that we can somehow arouse God's sympathy by telling Him, and everyone else, the history of our suffering. I want you to notice that Jesus was interested in only one thing their faith . He asked: "Believe ye that I am able to do this?" (verse 28). If they did not believe, they would die in their blindness. In verse 29, He told the blind men: "According to your faith, be it unto you." And that was it! Say this to yourself: Father thank You because I believe and You will always help my unbelief in Jesus' name. Amen!

LightWord: “But let him ask in faith, not wavering.” James 1:6 After you have identified what you desire. Also, you've found the appropriate promise that covers that desires from the Word of God. Now, you are ready to ask. Here is the next thing you should know: ask in faith. Why so? Because God deals with us on the basis of faith. Without faith it is impossible to please God. (Heb.11:6) When Jesus was physically on earth, He succeeded in healing and delivering people only if they believed that He could do it. If they did not believe, then they did not get anything. Say this to yourself: Father thank You because I believe I receive that which I desire of You according to Your will in Jesus' name. Amen!

LightWord: “And in that day ye shall ask me nothing. Verily, verily, I say unto you, Whatsoever ye shall ask the Father in my name, he will give it you.” John 16:23 Whatever we desire can be ours if we ask in the name of Jesus. And He has given us the assurance that whatever we ask in His name we can have. It is a power of attorney — a power to act in another person's name. When we pray this way, it is as if Jesus Himself is doing the praying. Additionally, Jesus is the mediator between man and God ( 1 Timothy 2:5 ). He is the sole authorized attorney for all believers. No other attorney is permitted in the court of heaven. Say this to yourself: Father in the name of Jesus, I ask for (make mention of it) and I receive it by faith in Jesus' name. Amen!

LightWord: “That at the name of Jesus every knee should bow, of things in heaven, and things in earth, and things under the earth;” Philippians 2:10 Jesus' name is above every name. Here is the secret, no name will do for a substitute. Believers are not accepted on the basis of their own names or any other. We cannot come in our own recognition. We do not have a standing with God separate and apart from the standing we have in Jesus. Scripture above says, "everything in heaven, on earth, and in hell." All things we would ordinarily ask for in prayer are included here . Say this to yourself: Father in the name of Jesus, by the power in Your name let everything answers to my command in Jesus' name. Amen!

LightWord: “All things were made by him; and without him was not any thing made that was made.” John 1:3 All things were made by Him, as we are told from the Scripture above. He has the monopoly of the heavenly bank . Note that it is not for the sake of Jesus you ask. You ask for your own sake, but in Jesus' name. There is an added reason why the Father would act in the name of Jesus. The Father has decreed that at the name of Jesus every knee should bow. ( Philippians 2:10 ). Notice that verse 9 says "His name is above every name."  Say this to yourself: Father in the name of Jesus I pray and receive all that I desire according to Your will in Jesus' name. Amen!

LightWord: “Wherefore God also hath highly exalted him, and given him a name which is above every name:” Philippians 2:9 One of the major things among others that project power into our prayers is praying in the name of Jesus. All prayer must be made in the name of Jesus . This is like a signature that gets the whole of heaven attends to your prayer. Praying in the name of Jesus does not only gets heaven's attention to your prayers but even the earth and the hell gives way. Jesus owns the account you intend to draw from. Say this to yourself: Thank You Father for the great opportunity to pray in the name of Your Son Jesus that it might effect power to my prayers, be glorified in Jesus' name. Amen!

LightWord: “...your Father who sees in secret will reward you openly.” Matthew 6:6 NKJV Anyone who knows how to ask God give me, should also know how to say Thy kingdom come! Praying in this manner, Scripture says you don't have to worry about anything else, for it shall be an additional. Matthew 6:33 God answers personal prayer but He rewards Kingdom advancement prayers. Praying for His will to be done. Praying for the growth, improvement, advancement, and enlargement of His Church and His Kingdom are kinds of prayers that moves God's heart. Say this to yourself: Father, let Your Spirit always lead, guide and triggers me to prioritize my prayers on Your kingdom first in Jesus' name. Amen!
