Prayer against Covid 19

Let us therefore come boldly to the throne of grace, that we may obtain mercy, and find grace to help in time of need. (Hebrews 4:16) ……You will also declare a thing, And it will be established for you; So light will shine on your ways. (Job 22:28)

We stand before your throne of grace, today seeking for your mercy and grace to help us in time of need.  This is our hour of need Father.  

We step into the coming week of 23^rd March to 30^th March 2020, by faith in the name of Jesus.  We shake the wickedness out of the week.  We speak to the womb of the week and the womb of every day of that week in the name of Jesus. We abort every wicked scheme and activity of the enemy planted into that week.

We declare that it will not be a week of sorrow and death, over the nation of Kenya, and, the nations of the world.  We declare that it will be a week of good news.  A week of recoveries of those who have been inflicted in the name of Jesus. We declare that it will be a week of life and not death in the name of Jesus. We declare that it will be a week of miraculous healing of people the world over in the name of Jesus.

We declare that it will be a turnaround week for the nation of Kenya and not a week of crisis in the name of Jesus. We declare that it will be a week of breakthroughs against this disease in the name of Jesus. We declare it will be a week of insights by the medics on how to control and manage the disease in the name of Jesus. We declare it will be a week where the disease will be disgraced in the name of Jesus. We declare it will be a week that will see the death of Covid 19 in the name of Jesus.

We declare it will be a week of victory against the sickness in the name of Jesus. We declare it will be a week of rejoicing with no more infections in the nation of Kenya in the name of Jesus.

We continue to stand before your throne of Grace and ask for your mercy for each and every day of the week in the name of Jesus.  For your mercies are new every morning.

We lay a hold of our nation and the people in this nation.  We plead for your mercy in the midst of your wrath.  For the sake of your name, and for the sake of the purposes you have vested in the lives of Kenyans, have mercy Lord, have mercy. Let not a single Kenyans life be lost with this sickness we pray

We have no other God but you, you have done what no man can do, you will do what no man can do.  Our eyes are upon you O Rock of Ages, our help in ages past our hope for years to come, our present help in time of trouble. In Jesus name.

Weapons Of Our Warfare

WEAPONS OF OUR WARFARE

 The bible admonishes us that the weapons of our warfare are not carnal but they are mighty to the pulling down of strongholds.

When praying we need to pray smart, i.e specific measurable, attainable, being Realistically, With a time frame.

An understanding of the weaponry at our disposal will enable us to fight more effectively and become over comers.  An understanding of the weapons we have at our disposal, will enable us to apply them strategically against the enemy of our souls

 Many countries spend billions of their money to train their soldiers and equip them to understand the weapons that they can employ against the enemy in whatever situation.  In fact the security budget is the largest in any given country and is given top priority.  A lot of research goes into security and new weapons are always being developed and tested, so that the army may remain relevant 

 Likewise as believers we should always seek to read and research on the weapons that we can use against the devil and his demons.  An understanding of the weapons of our warfare will enable us to deploy them more effectively and we become snipers in the hand of our master and saviour.  

 Today we will examine the first weapon which is :

1.                 The blood of Jesus

 “I’ve heard that” I can almost hear you say!!! But truly, a deeper understanding of what the blood is and what it did for us will enable any one to become more effective in their prayer life.  Many times we do not clearly understand what kind of victory the blood bought for us, and we only use it lightly.

It is by far one of the most powerful weapon we have in our armory of weapon

 When Jesus died on Calvary, Golgotha, and his blood touched the earth, several things happened,

• there was an earthquake,
• the graves opened,
• the curtain at the temple tore into two,
• there was darkness on the earth for 3 hours. 

It was a defining moment in time, in all history.  The defeat of Satan was being finalized. 

 You see this was the second time Satan was being defeated by the blood. In revelation 12, we read of Satan being cast out of heaven and before he was cast out there was war in heaven where Michael the archangel and his army fought the devil, and cast him out.  The bible says they overcame him by the blood of the lamb and by the word of their testimony. ( a thousand amens!!!)

 

From then on Satan hated the seed of the woman, and he relentlessly pursues man because of the defeat he suffered, in heaven,(Genesis 12) read it please!!!!, it is simply delicious!!!.  

 We are in a battle standing in a position of victory, because the weapon we are using has already defeated our enemy and will continue to defeat him every time he comes into contact with it.

 That is why when even under extraneous circumstances someone can call on the name of the Lord and the blood of Jesus and the demons and Satan have no choice but to move. 

 What the blood of Jesus does

• It cleanses us from sin, confess your sins and ask for the cleansing of the blood
• It becomes a covering to us as we approach the throne room of the Lord for Mercy ( it is not by our works but by the blood of Christ)
• The blood speaks ( it has a voice) of a better promise to us
• It bloats out ( wipes out) ordinances(curses, stuff) written/ spoken over our lives
• The blood gives us a new relationship with God in that we now become his sons and heirs of his kingdom.
• The blood makes us have a covenant relationship with Christ.  All that he has is ours and all that we have is his.
• The blood overcame satan in heaven, when he was cast out, here on earth by the death of Christ on the cross.  So whenever we use it, Satan is reminded of his defeat.    

  No matter how stubborn an issue has been or no matter how long it has been in existence, the blood of Jesus when applied to that issue or situation can bring a complete turnaround.

 How can I say that, look at what the blood of animals did when Israel was delivered from Egypt.  They had been in bondage for over 400 years, ( I am yet to met/hear  a person  who is 200 years), but with a divine promise (covenant ) and the blood of the Passover, God delivered them overnight, with wealth, riches, favour, freedom, etc.  What then can the blood of Christ which is divine with the a divine covenant of God for Salvation do?  Is there any thing too hard for the Lord

 Further look at what God did when the walls of Jericho came down, the people had just been circumcised, blood had just been poured evoking a covenant of circumcision and walls which had stood for years, strong, unshakeable, immovable, fell down in one go.  Is there any thing too hard for the Lord.

 When Solomon in his dedication of the temple to the Lord slaughtered thousands of animals.  Historians say that the blood that flowed  that day was like a river, and it ran for days. That blood (of animals ) caused God to visit Solomon that night and ask him what he wanted God to do for him.

 We could go on and on, the blood of animals did so much in the old testament, can you imagine the divine, pure, unadulterated, holy blood of the lamb Jesus!!!! It is the ultimate weapon.

Keys To Successful Prayer: understand your spirituality

One of the ways I find that helps me to keep focused on who God is and who Satan is, is by the way I pray. On point, aggresive, focused, repeated prayers, clothed with the word of God which act as a sword to the enemy. The weapons of our warfare are not carnal but they are mighty to the pulling down of strongholds.......

The bible clearly encourages us that our war is not physical but spiritual, "for we wrestle not against flesh and blood but against powers, rulers, principalities........ ephesians 6: 11

The following keys will aid you in leading a successful prayer life. 

1.  Know you are a spritual being.

This may seem obvious but it is not.  We need to consiously develop our spiritual man and begin to see ourselves more as spiritual beings than physical beings.  Once we perceive our spirituality, then we will begin to act more like spiritual people.  Man is made up of body, soul and spirit.  

• The body is what we see physically: the home of the soul and the spirit
  
• The soul is where the emotions of man reside
  
• The spirit is where the life of God or the breath of God resides.
  

When we get born again the spirit of man indwells in our spirit    

This is the part we give the least of our attention and it is the most important.  It is the part of us that will live forever.  The spirit is a being with facilities like our physical bodies. ephesians 6 says put on the full armour of the lord, the helmet of salvation(head), the breastplate of righteousness(chest), the belt of truth (loins), the preparation of the gospel on our feet, take up the shield of faith and the sword of the spirit(hands), garment of praise(body)isaiah 61:3)

One of the tactics of the devil is to let us view our spiritual man as an obscure and unclear thing which only the pastor and God seem to understand.!!

Your spirit man is like your physical man with ears, eyes, feet, body, hands, mouth, head, etc.

Internalise this one point and your prayer life will take an upward turn for the better.  You will be able to perceive and understand that the devil is also spiritual, and God is spiritual, and thus you must employ the weapons that are spiritual to defeat him( the devil).

Many things that manifest in our physical bodies begun way back in the spirit, but because we pay little or no attention to it, the progression to our physical is then made possible.   Victory must first be attained in the spiritul realm then be made manifest in the physical.  

In every level of our life whether we are seeking for healing for our bodies, solutions to problems that plague us, we must first conquer in the spirit before we see results in the physical     

We could live here on this for a  time, but for now we will leave it at that when you pray begin to visualize yourself as a spiritual person, close your eyes and see what you are saying.

As you put on the full armour of God in your prayer see yourself in your inner eye putting it on your spiritual man.  Your words are life and are being listened to in the spiritual realms, by both God and the devil 

       

Prayer points  that I pray continuously to activate my spiritual man are:

•  open my spiritual eyes and ears that I may see, (ephesians 1: 19 open the eyes of my understanding that I may know the hope of my calling)  
  
• let every deaf and dumb spirit blocking my eyes and ears, die now in Jesus name
  
• I operate a 20/20 vision in my spirit man in the name of Jesus
• My ear will hear clearly and distinctly the voice of God in the name of Jesus 
• Arise Oh God! and scatter every evil spirit that is blocking my vision  and my hearing in the name of Jesus  

Next we look at understanding our weapons
