Speaker 1: Good morning in morning family, got blessed. Welcome back to
0:07
Speaker 1: the morning DeVos. You bro Sam Lopez aka DJ sam
0:10
Speaker 1: Rock so Win is with a z dot org live
0:13
Speaker 1: do so win is with a z dot org and
0:15
Speaker 1: streaming on some social media platforms that allow the stream
0:18
Speaker 1: to go through, amen, because not all the platforms automatically
0:22
Speaker 1: allow the stream to go through. Some you have to
0:24
Speaker 1: pay for like X you have to be a premium
0:27
Speaker 1: member now to live stream, and some other networks don't
0:32
Speaker 1: allow it live streams to go through. But I'm grateful
0:36
Speaker 1: for the ones that allowed me to go through and
0:37
Speaker 1: for the groups that allowed me to share these morning
0:40
Speaker 1: DeVos on your groups. So let me shout a couple
0:43
Speaker 1: daily encouragement shout out to you for allowing us to
0:47
Speaker 1: share on your group. How about this one Team Jesus,
0:51
Speaker 1: thank you so much for sharing. Also, born again Christians
0:55
Speaker 1: go ye into all the world and preach the good
0:58
Speaker 1: news that group. Thank you so much much. And for
1:00
Speaker 1: the other people and groups that are sharing this out,
1:03
Speaker 1: thank you so much. Again. I'm grateful because I know
1:06
Speaker 1: the algorithm is not in our favor as believers, because
1:10
Speaker 1: the algorithm is more geared into drama and all that
1:14
Speaker 1: other stuff that people are attracted to. Amen. But I
1:18
Speaker 1: always know that good vibes attract good people, bad vibes
1:22
Speaker 1: attract bad people. Right, So we pray a lot over
1:28
Speaker 1: here on the Morning Devo. If you haven't noticed, Amen,
1:31
Speaker 1: But today we're going to talk about unhindered prayer, in
1:34
Speaker 1: other words, unrestricted prayers. Wouldn't you want your prayers to
1:39
Speaker 1: go unhindered, unrestricted and go straight to the ears of
1:43
Speaker 1: the Lord, Amen, So that way God could hear our
1:46
Speaker 1: prayers and answer to the prayer according to his purpose
1:50
Speaker 1: and his plan, which is one hundred percent accurate, one
1:53
Speaker 1: hundred percent perfect. Amen. But sometimes that you know, according
1:58
Speaker 1: to the scriptures that sometimes when we pray, depending on
2:02
Speaker 1: where we are and our walk, depending on where we
2:05
Speaker 1: are in our faith, do you understand that sometimes our
2:09
Speaker 1: prayers get hindered, they get restricted, they get delayed. You
2:15
Speaker 1: might be thinking that there's no way God hears every time. Amen.
2:19
Speaker 1: Not necessarily true according to the scriptures, and today unhindered
2:23
Speaker 1: prayer on the Morning Devote. If you have any questions, comments, concerns,
2:27
Speaker 1: or prayer requests, please don't hesitate to leave it on
2:30
Speaker 1: a live chat. Also, let me just read you my
2:33
Speaker 1: statement here. While God hears his children, we know that
2:38
Speaker 1: the Bible also teaches that certain attitudes, actions, or spiritual
2:45
Speaker 1: conditions can affect the effectiveness of our prayers. It's not
2:52
Speaker 1: that God doesn't hear, is that sometimes our prayers will
2:56
Speaker 1: get hindered. So today we're gonna learn and we're going
3:01
Speaker 1: to share a scripture that will make sure that we
3:09
Speaker 1: know how to get our prayers unhindered, unrestricted, no delays
3:13
Speaker 1: in our prayer life Psalms, chapter sixty six, verse number eighteen.
3:18
Speaker 1: We're gonna start there, and then we're going to take
3:20
Speaker 1: a little little time to devote some time right into
3:23
Speaker 1: the word of God, in the Word of God, and
3:25
Speaker 1: then apply what we know a man and move forward
3:28
Speaker 1: and take it from there. God is faithful to his word.
3:30
Speaker 1: A man. Is not a time or place or a
3:33
Speaker 1: situation that God cannot do something in our lives and man.
3:39
Speaker 1: His will is perfect, his plan is perfect, His word
3:42
Speaker 1: is true all the time. And man, so when we pray,
3:45
Speaker 1: we're not praying to the ceiling, we're not praying to
3:48
Speaker 1: the sky. We're not praying to an unknown God. We're
3:51
Speaker 1: praying to a known God, a real God. A God
3:53
Speaker 1: who responds, a God who believes in us before we
3:57
Speaker 1: believed in him. Amen. It's an amazing situation, right, Amazing God,
4:01
Speaker 1: amazing purpose, amazing plan. Amen. God is all of that,
4:05
Speaker 1: and that's something you know. It would take a billion
4:09
Speaker 1: gazillion eternities for me to describe the goodness of God
4:12
Speaker 1: because he's that good. Amen. Good morning, my bro brother
4:16
Speaker 1: e God blessed. Amen. Good morning, and thank you so
4:20
Speaker 1: much for coming through to the morning Devo. Stay in
4:23
Speaker 1: the chat. Let me see if I could If you
4:26
Speaker 1: still want to join, let me know. I was trying
4:28
Speaker 1: to figure out how to get you in here. Amen.
4:33
Speaker 1: I don't know if I could do that now after
4:36
Speaker 1: we started streaming. Let me see, Amen, technology probably will
4:40
Speaker 1: allow me to do it. Let's see. Let me know
4:47
Speaker 1: if you want to be on camera. If you want
4:49
Speaker 1: to be on camera, I can send you a link
4:51
Speaker 1: to get on the live stream. Or if you want
4:54
Speaker 1: to do audio, if you want to just audio only,
4:58
Speaker 1: there should be a way to do that as well.
5:00
Speaker 1: Hey man, I came to the studio a little late,
5:03
Speaker 1: so I didn't have that figured out. My bad. So
5:07
Speaker 1: let's go for it. Let's pray first. After we pray,
5:09
Speaker 1: we'll share this out for like sixty seconds, and then
5:11
Speaker 1: on the other side of those sixty seconds we'll come back.
5:14
Speaker 1: We'll get into our scripture Psalms sixty six, verse number eighteen. Father,
5:21
Speaker 1: thank you so much for hearing this prayer right now.
5:23
Speaker 1: I pray Lord God that this prayer right now will
5:26
Speaker 1: go unhindered, and then we'll go straight to your ears,
5:29
Speaker 1: and that you, Low God, will respond in your perfect timing,
5:32
Speaker 1: your perfect will, which is your word over our lives,
5:35
Speaker 1: every single situation that you know about, Lord God, which
5:39
Speaker 1: you know it all. I pray, Lord God, that you
5:42
Speaker 1: will continue to be glorified, That you will continue to
5:45
Speaker 1: be trusted and magnified. That you will continue to be
5:48
Speaker 1: high and lifted up in our hearts and our minds,
5:51
Speaker 1: and our actions and our attitudes and our deeds and
5:54
Speaker 1: our relationships. That Lord God, you will be the center
5:58
Speaker 1: of it all. God, a hedge of powerful, hedge of
6:01
Speaker 1: protection over our hearts and minds, physically, emotionally, and spiritually.
6:06
Speaker 1: I pray Lord God, that you will move heaven and
6:09
Speaker 1: earth like you always do, according to your will for
6:11
Speaker 1: all your children. Every single place that we find ourselves,
6:15
Speaker 1: you are there. I pray that over myself, my wife,
6:18
Speaker 1: our children, our grandchildren, my brothers, my sister, their families
6:22
Speaker 1: as well. I pray, Lord God, for every single person
6:24
Speaker 1: on the other side of the screen, and on the
6:26
Speaker 1: other side of this might pray a hedge of protection,
6:29
Speaker 1: Holy Spirit, that you will move and guide and guard
6:32
Speaker 1: us as well. I set forth arquen angels to annihilate
6:36
Speaker 1: the tactics of the enemy for every single person that's connected.
6:40
Speaker 1: I pray that by faith, knowing that you hear our
6:43
Speaker 1: prayers and you answer our prayers according to your will,
6:47
Speaker 1: So not our will, but your will, Lord Jesus, that
6:50
Speaker 1: you will have your place in our hearts, and we
6:53
Speaker 1: will set aside this time. So I have unhindered prayer
6:57
Speaker 1: in Jesus Holy Name, with thanksgiving our prayers by faith.
7:00
Speaker 1: And those who agree with say amen to the amen.
7:03

Speaker 1: So thank you so much for coming over there as well.
9:43
Speaker 1: So let me get this ready, put this on the
9:45
Speaker 1: screen and let's read this out. Because our prayers don't
9:49
Speaker 1: have to be hindered. Our prayers don't have to be restricted.
9:51
Speaker 1: Our prayers could go straight to the Lord's ears. Amen,
9:55
Speaker 1: doing the right thing according to the scripture, not according
9:57
Speaker 1: to our method, not according to a tradition, none of that.
10:00
Speaker 1: It's according to the Word of God. And you already
10:03
Speaker 1: know if you've been following me at any amount of time.
10:05
Speaker 1: I try to stick to the script I try to
10:07
Speaker 1: stick to the scriptures, not try to make anything fancy,
10:10
Speaker 1: force anything, make anything up, try to be you know,
10:14
Speaker 1: drop the mic preacher on online or anything like that.
10:18
Speaker 1: The scripture is way more than enough. The scripture has
10:21
Speaker 1: all the salts, The scripture has the truth. Amen. The
10:25
Speaker 1: scripture is the truth. The scripture has power all the time.
10:28
Speaker 1: But the man, well, I see you, good morning, God,
10:30
Speaker 1: bless you. Welcome back to the morning deep with my
10:32
Speaker 1: bro and my friends. So let me get this on
10:34
Speaker 1: screen and hopefully that's soue. Okay, there you go. Boom,
10:38
Speaker 1: unhindered prayer, Amen, fiery dove on the screen right now.
10:44
Speaker 1: We're gonna do this, Amen, and we're gonna do this well.
10:47
Speaker 1: Because our attitudes, our position in life could affect our prayers, Amen,
10:57
Speaker 1: our spiritual condition, you know, Od hears us. But the word,
11:02
Speaker 1: his word teaches that if we have certain attitudes, if
11:05
Speaker 1: we take certain actions, or if we do certain things,
11:09
Speaker 1: the prayers might not go through the way we think
11:13
Speaker 1: it will go through. My brother puts up Matthew, chapter
11:16
Speaker 1: twenty one and verse twenty two. Thank you for the scripture,
11:19
Speaker 1: my bro. Amen, and Manuel says, the prayers are the
11:22
Speaker 1: righteous avail ath much. Yes it does, Yes, it does.
11:26
Speaker 1: And when we pray, we're praying to the living, holy, righteous,
11:30
Speaker 1: loving God, Amen of having and Earth. So I'm sixty
11:34
Speaker 1: six and eighteen says if I had cherished sin in
11:37
Speaker 1: my heart, the Lord will not would not have listened. So,
11:43
Speaker 1: in other words, if I cherish sin, I habitually sin,
11:50
Speaker 1: I know I'm sinning, and then I'm gonna go to
11:52
Speaker 1: the Lord in prayer. Amen, when I'm doing this as
11:56
Speaker 1: a habit, when I'm not having the fear of the Lord,
11:59
Speaker 1: when i'm just and disobedience, when I'm just in the flesh,
12:02
Speaker 1: when i just want to do what i want to do.
12:04
Speaker 1: And you have certain deals with God. Supposedly, the salmon says,
12:10
Speaker 1: if I had cherished sin in my heart, the Lord
12:15
Speaker 1: would not have listened. But not listen to his requests
12:19
Speaker 1: but not listen to his prayer. When not listen, that's
12:22
Speaker 1: a scary place to be. Man. Imagine you're like going
12:27
Speaker 1: through something and you know who to go to, the Lord, right,
12:31
Speaker 1: but you also know that your actions, your attitude, your
12:35
Speaker 1: life is not lining up. It's a scary thing that
12:40
Speaker 1: we could pray and then not hear a response, or
12:45
Speaker 1: that we pray and know because of our own actions
12:48
Speaker 1: that our prayers are going uphindered, the layed restricted the
12:54
Speaker 1: word of God. Man, I can't make this up. God's
12:57
Speaker 1: word is God's work. So I'm always like this, It's
13:00
Speaker 1: in a scripture. Let's deal with it, amen, Let's not
13:03
Speaker 1: back off. Let's not make an excuses. Amen, let's not
13:10
Speaker 1: avoid the word. A lot of people avoid the scriptures
13:13
Speaker 1: because sometimes scriptures like this is like an ouch moment,
13:16
Speaker 1: like ooh that hurts, Ooh, that's tough. But listen, God's
13:20
Speaker 1: word is not there for us to be punished. God's
13:23
Speaker 1: word is there for us to be set free. God
13:26
Speaker 1: puts up boundaries not to restrict us from having fun,
13:30
Speaker 1: but he puts up boundaries to protect us, gid us.
13:32
Speaker 1: He's a loving father. He doesn't want us to get
13:35
Speaker 1: all crazy out there, right, and then get hurt. And
13:38
Speaker 1: then what happens. A lot of times when people get hurt,
13:41
Speaker 1: they blame God for the hurt. What happens a lot
13:44
Speaker 1: of times when people lose loved ones, they blame God
13:47
Speaker 1: for losing that loved one. What happens. And when people say, oh,
13:50
Speaker 1: the grace of God, and then you'll experience the grace
13:54
Speaker 1: in your neighbors, not experience and the grace right. God's
13:58
Speaker 1: grace is for everyone. Whosoever calls on the name of
14:00
Speaker 1: the Lord shall be safe, save from what saved from
14:04
Speaker 1: the wrath of God, the doe penalty that is old
14:09
Speaker 1: to us. But God took our place, The Lord Jesus
14:12
Speaker 1: took our place on that cross and forgave us for
14:16
Speaker 1: our sins, Amen, and our trespasses. Good morning, says the
14:20
Speaker 1: joy us. Good morning, God, bless you. Amen, welcome back
14:23
Speaker 1: to the morning. Devo, my system, my friend. So God
14:27
Speaker 1: hears us absolutely. But we don't want to be asking
14:32
Speaker 1: God for things right when we know that our actions,
14:35
Speaker 1: our heart, our posture, our life is in all kinds
14:39
Speaker 1: of crazy sin. And how about this scripture? A double
14:44
Speaker 1: minded person, double minded man is unstable in all his
14:48
Speaker 1: ways right and God I'm charaphrasing, if I remember this correctly,
14:54
Speaker 1: and God will not hear. In other words, our praise
14:57
Speaker 1: will go hindered. The Christian prayers are powerful, like Manuel
15:02
Speaker 1: said earlier, the prayers of the righteous, those who are
15:07
Speaker 1: on right standing with God. Amen. It's powerful because we're
15:12
Speaker 1: praying and it's unhindered. Manwell says, if we are praying
15:18
Speaker 1: for his if what we are praying is in line,
15:23
Speaker 1: excuse me. With God's will, God answers us. Amen. It's
15:28
Speaker 1: not our will. It's about God's will over our life.
15:31
Speaker 1: So listen, I'm gonna give you a couple of reasons
15:35
Speaker 1: why your prayers might not be being heard, or might
15:40
Speaker 1: be delayed, or might be restricted. Amen. Not making this up.
15:44
Speaker 1: You could go to the scriptures that I'm going to cite.
15:47
Speaker 1: I'm gonna cite the scriptures, but because of time, Amen,
15:50
Speaker 1: I can't go through all the scriptures. But I just
15:53
Speaker 1: want you to think this through, Amen, And so that
15:56
Speaker 1: way we won't have any reason to believe otherwise. Amen.
16:00
Speaker 1: Eric says, words carry power life and death. Be very
16:03
Speaker 1: wise how you choose, yes, Amen, our actions, our attitudes,
16:09
Speaker 1: our lifestyle. Amen. Has to align with the word of God, unforced.
16:14
Speaker 1: Once you know God, you gonna want to be like him.
16:17
Speaker 1: Once you know the Lord, you're gonna want to be
16:18
Speaker 1: like him. Once you fill with Holy Spirit, your desires
16:21
Speaker 1: are going to change. Amen. You're not gonna have the
16:24
Speaker 1: same desires that you had before Holy Spirit started living
16:28
Speaker 1: inside of you. Amen, in inside of me. Number one,
16:32
Speaker 1: unconfessed sin. That's a big problem. Persistent unrepented sin I'm
16:39
Speaker 1: talking about, Okay, Samuel saying we can't send them more.
16:42
Speaker 1: I'm not saying that. As a matter of fact. The
16:44
Speaker 1: Bible says, if I say I don't have sin, I'm
16:47
Speaker 1: a liar and God is not in me. Persistent unrepented
16:51
Speaker 1: sin blocks our fellowship with God. And what does it do?
16:57
Speaker 1: It hinders, it restricts our prayer. Isaiah fifty nine and
17:02
Speaker 1: two says, your iniquities have separated you from God. God
17:07
Speaker 1: doesn't separate from us. We separate from Him because of
17:10
Speaker 1: our iniquities, because our sin. Amen, when you're a born
17:15
Speaker 1: again believer, and this is a thought, we have Holy
17:18
Speaker 1: Spirit living inside of us, right. I don't think when
17:21
Speaker 1: we sin, holy Spirit leaves. It's all you're sinning now.
17:24
Speaker 1: So I'm out, and then when we repent, he comes back,
17:27
Speaker 1: and then when you sin again, he leaves. And I
17:30
Speaker 1: don't think that's the situation. I think he lives and
17:32
Speaker 1: dwells with the living, breathing Temple of God living on
17:37
Speaker 1: this earth, and he's with us to the very end.
17:40
Speaker 1: He will never leave us nor forsake. As the scripture says, right,
17:43
Speaker 1: your iniquities have separated you from your God, so that
17:48
Speaker 1: he will not hear Isaiah the prophet fifty nine and
17:51
Speaker 1: two and men, that's a warning. I want God to
17:55
Speaker 1: hear my heavy prayer. You know I pray a lot,
17:58
Speaker 1: So why wouldn't I want God to hear my prayers?
18:02
Speaker 1: Because I want to act crazy, because I want to sin,
18:04
Speaker 1: because I want to have a hidden agenda, or I
18:08
Speaker 1: want to double life. What benefit would I be to anybody,
18:12
Speaker 1: my family, my friends if I'm living a double life
18:15
Speaker 1: and then acting like my prayers are being heard. You
18:19
Speaker 1: see a lot of that on TV. You see a
18:21
Speaker 1: lot of that on the internet with these preachers and
18:24
Speaker 1: evangelists and all these people that have this so called
18:27
Speaker 1: annoying thing and that they get this revelation that not
18:30
Speaker 1: everybody else gets. Right, You've seen them out there, Oh, God,
18:34
Speaker 1: gaming of revelation, and I pray you get the same revelation.
18:37
Speaker 1: And he told me God, God told me this, and
18:40
Speaker 1: God told me that you ever see those people online?
18:43
Speaker 1: I feel the Holy Spirit. God told me to tell you.
18:46
Speaker 1: And then it's outside of the will of God, outside
18:49
Speaker 1: of the word of God. You gotta be mindful. You
18:50
Speaker 1: got to be careful with that. Amen. Bro puts up
18:54
Speaker 1: Philippian chapter four, six and seven. Amen, thank you for
18:57
Speaker 1: the scripture. That's a good scripture. Site. Do not be
19:00
Speaker 1: anxious about anything. I believe that's the scripture, right, or
19:03
Speaker 1: we could do all things through Christ. One of those. Amen,
19:06
Speaker 1: I don't have the scripture in front of me. His
19:08
Speaker 1: iniquities was the problem. Right, of course, God has no problems.
19:15
Speaker 1: God is perfect. The Lord is perfect, y'ah ways perfect
19:18
Speaker 1: ya shiaha much she is perfect. Amen. Wonderful counselor right
19:22
Speaker 1: Prince of peace, Almighty God. He's an omnipresent internal being.
19:28
Speaker 1: God doesn't look at our calendar and said, Okay, I'll
19:31
Speaker 1: answer that prayer next week on Thursday. He doesn't look
19:33
Speaker 1: at our calendar. God sits outside of our time. God
19:37
Speaker 1: sits outside of our calendar. God sits outside of our spaces.
19:42
Speaker 1: His thoughts are not like our thoughts. His ways are
19:45
Speaker 1: not like our ways. He's high and lifted up way
19:47
Speaker 1: above Amen. He's the highest of heights. God is good.
19:53
Speaker 1: So unconfessed sin will cause your prayers to be like
19:57
Speaker 1: hitting ceilings right and dropping down because you have unconfessed prayer. Now,
20:02
Speaker 1: I'm not saying if you're in sin, don't pray for
20:04
Speaker 1: somebody who needs prayer. I believe God, in his sovereignty
20:09
Speaker 1: a man with his grace, he will allow us to
20:13
Speaker 1: petition for someone else, right supplication, praying for others in
20:18
Speaker 1: their need of prayer because we have a connection with God.
20:21
Speaker 1: Sometimes we're praying for people who have no connection with God.
20:25
Speaker 1: And God, because of his grace, you know, somehow he
20:30
Speaker 1: responds to the prayer and they get their prayers answered
20:33
Speaker 1: and they don't even know God. It's crazy, right, But
20:37
Speaker 1: the prayers are the righteous availth much the prayers that
20:40
Speaker 1: we put out there into the atmosphere. We're not praying
20:43
Speaker 1: to the universe. The universe don't speak back and man,
20:46
Speaker 1: we're praying to the God of the universe. We're praying
20:49
Speaker 1: to the God who created the universe. We're praying to
20:51
Speaker 1: the God who responds. We're not praying to an unknown God.
20:55
Speaker 1: We're not doing any type of hocus pocus. We're praying
20:59
Speaker 1: to a living, holy, righteous, loving, omnipresent, omniscient God who
21:05
Speaker 1: knows every single thing about us. And regardless of what
21:09
Speaker 1: he knows that's going on in our heart, we have
21:11
Speaker 1: a transformed heart, a transformed mind, a renewed heart. We
21:14
Speaker 1: have a new day, a new start. Every single day
21:16
Speaker 1: a man and his mercies are new, and his grace
21:20
Speaker 1: is there daily, Amen, daily, not just like oh, when
21:26
Speaker 1: I'm at church, when I'm at service, when I'm in
21:29
Speaker 1: fellowship and with other believers. Now, he's with you from
21:32
Speaker 1: the time you wake up to the time you go
21:34
Speaker 1: to sleep. He's with you every step of the way.
21:38
Speaker 1: So that's number one, unconfessin. That's a big problem, Amen.
21:42
Speaker 1: If you want your prayer life to be elevated, how
21:47
Speaker 1: about this number two? Unforgiveness Holding on to unforgiveness in
21:52
Speaker 1: your heart towards others. That's going to mess up your
21:56
Speaker 1: relationship with God. It will hinder your relationship. God is
22:00
Speaker 1: not going to leave you, like I said earlier, but
22:03
Speaker 1: you'll start noticing man I'm not hearing from God. Remember
22:07
Speaker 1: the prophet Samuel was raised from the dead by Saul,
22:13
Speaker 1: the king of Israel at the time, and he used
22:17
Speaker 1: a witch to raise a man of God, or wake
22:21
Speaker 1: a man of God from the grave. Send the scriptures.
22:25
Speaker 1: A man is there, we have to deal with it.
22:27
Speaker 1: So some people rely on others to hear from God,
22:32
Speaker 1: and I guess you know, that's the only way they
22:35
Speaker 1: can hear from God. I got to speak to Eric,
22:37
Speaker 1: I got to speak to Joanne, I got to speak
22:39
Speaker 1: to Joyce, I got to speak to Manuel. To hear
22:41
Speaker 1: from the Lord. Or people say, can you pray for me? Amen?
22:45
Speaker 1: And their believers, You're looking at them like, I'll pray
22:47
Speaker 1: for you. I'll pray with you, but you know you
22:49
Speaker 1: could actually pray yourself. People get distracted a lot. I
22:54
Speaker 1: get distracted a lot sometimes, Amen. So if I'm not careful,
22:58
Speaker 1: my prayer life is going to be random. But I
23:00
Speaker 1: like to be intentional with my prayers. I like to
23:03
Speaker 1: be specific with my prayers. I know God knows all things,
23:06
Speaker 1: So knowing that God knows all things, I don't have
23:08
Speaker 1: to be perfect in my prayer. I need to be specific.
23:11
Speaker 1: God knows Amen. Eric says, facts prayer protected my home
23:17
Speaker 1: this week. And thanks to God for using my sister
23:19
Speaker 1: Uni in his way or for his blessed purposes. Amen. Amen.
23:25
Speaker 1: The prayers are the righteous about much. We don't have
23:28
Speaker 1: to be perfect when we pray. We just have to
23:30
Speaker 1: be aligned when we pray. We have to be a heart,
23:33
Speaker 1: have a heart of humility, be humbled when we pray. Amen,
23:37
Speaker 1: and know that we're praying to a living God who
23:39
Speaker 1: knows all things. Amen. Manwell says, we come before God
23:44
Speaker 1: in spirit and in truth. Yes, spirit never fails. The
23:48
Speaker 1: spirit doesn't weaken. The spirit is always willing. It's the
23:51
Speaker 1: flesh that's weak. And God knows our weak flesh. He
23:54
Speaker 1: knows us. Amen. So don't be afraid to pray. Don't
23:59
Speaker 1: go oh not praying. A man pray about all things
24:02
Speaker 1: and God will answer porting to his purpose. But we
24:05
Speaker 1: were trying to get our prayers unhindered. We're trying to
24:07
Speaker 1: get our prayers a man heard from the Lord, right,
24:10
Speaker 1: So don't hold on to unforgiveness. That won't be a
24:15
Speaker 1: good day for anybody. Amen. Don't do it. And let
24:22
Speaker 1: me get back to my notes here. So I said
24:24
Speaker 1: number one was what unconfessed sin. Number two is unforgiveness.
24:31
Speaker 1: Mark eleven twenty five says, And when you stand praying,
24:35
Speaker 1: if you hold anything against anyone, forgive them like enough
24:40
Speaker 1: is enough, Just forgive them. You don't have to if
24:43
Speaker 1: you can't find them, or if you can't face them,
24:46
Speaker 1: just forgive them in your heart. God knows our heart.
24:50
Speaker 1: Our heart has been transformed. He knows our heart so
24:55
Speaker 1: that your Father in heaven may forgive you your sins.
25:00
Speaker 1: So when I forget somebody, Amen, I'm breaking out of
25:04
Speaker 1: the prison of pride. I'm breaking out of the prison
25:07
Speaker 1: of unforgiveness. And at the same time God has forgiven
25:11
Speaker 1: me for my stuff. Perfect God, perfect situations. Right, we
25:16
Speaker 1: can get in our own way at times and hinder
25:19
Speaker 1: His blessings from our prayers. You're right, Eric, You're right.
25:24
Speaker 1: We could get in our way, our own way sometimes. Amen.
25:27
Speaker 1: God's like, listen, just acts and you will be given
25:30
Speaker 1: seeking you fine knocking the door be open according to
25:33
Speaker 1: God's perfect timing. And sometimes we just rush the situation,
25:37
Speaker 1: forced the situation, and we try to make people side
25:42
Speaker 1: with us even when they don't want to side with us.
25:45
Speaker 1: We cannot fake out God, Yes, we can't. Fake. God
25:48
Speaker 1: cannot fake him out. He knows everything. Amen, so you
25:50
Speaker 1: might as well come clean and confess. And I'll leave
25:54
Speaker 1: you to this with this one. Matthew six twelve. Forgive
25:56
Speaker 1: us our debts, as we also have forgiven our debtors.
26:01
Speaker 1: Matthew six and twelve. And that was the Lord speaking.
26:05
Speaker 1: But listen, I'm out of time. There's a lot here,
26:07
Speaker 1: a man. Maybe next time we'll get into it. But man,
26:10
Speaker 1: unhindered prayer is possible. Unrestricted prayer can happen today in
26:15
Speaker 1: your life. Change your attitude, go to the Lord, ask
26:18
Speaker 1: them to forgive you, and then keep on forgiving people,
26:20
Speaker 1: keep on praying for people, keep on studying the word,
26:23
Speaker 1: keep on applying the word, and watch what God does
26:26
Speaker 1: in your life and in my life. So thank you
26:27
Speaker 1: so much, Amen for hanging out with me, Manuel says
26:31
