- 0:32Speaker 1: Whils I was speaking in prayer, even the man Gabriel,
- 0:36Speaker 1: whom I had seen in a vision at the beginning
- 0:39Speaker 1: being caused to fly swiftly touched me about the time
- 0:43Speaker 1: of the evening, and he informed me, talked with me
- 0:47Speaker 1: and said, oh, Daniel, I am calmfort I am now
- 0:52Speaker 1: comfort to give this skill and understanding whiles I was speaking,
- 0:58Speaker 1: skill and understanding. That is the solution to what my petition.
- 1:08Speaker 1: Welcome to Fate Feed episode one hundred and ninety four.
- 1:11Speaker 1: Speaking in prayer. Speaking in prayer prayer is one of
- 1:18Speaker 1: the formidable ways of acknowledging the divine presence of God.
- 1:22Speaker 1: As a believer. God loves to answer prayer. But you
- 1:26Speaker 1: must have this understanding if you want to preserve the
- 1:31Speaker 1: sacredness of what prayer. Because prayer is not just a
- 1:37Speaker 1: means to an end. It is the end of the
- 1:39Speaker 1: means that it is the final bullstop of every problem
- 1:43Speaker 1: that requires what a solution. Prayer does not. Fellow prayer
- 1:48Speaker 1: never fails the effectual what prayer of a righteous man
- 1:52Speaker 1: is what makes tremendous power available. So the question is
- 1:57Speaker 1: are you speaking in prayer or are you speaking prayer?
- 2:01Speaker 1: Speaking prayer is external is an external activity, but speaking
- 2:06Speaker 1: in prayer is an internal affair. The Bible tells us
- 2:09Speaker 1: in second Samwhel seventh, verse twenty seven that for thou, o,
- 2:13Speaker 1: Lord of those, God of Israel, has revealed to thy servant,
- 2:18Speaker 1: now Ma that word revelation. He says, I will build.
- 2:21Speaker 1: And how so the word of God came by revelation,
- 2:23Speaker 1: and nous it's therefore because of the revelation. Listening to
- 2:27Speaker 1: this this is very powerful, because of the revelation that
- 2:31Speaker 1: of this God's world, he says, Thy Sabant, that's I
- 2:34Speaker 1: have found in my heart to pray this prayer onto
- 2:39Speaker 1: the found heart toward pray, that is speaking, that is
- 2:45Speaker 1: speaking in prayer. So you cannot talk about speaking in
- 2:48Speaker 1: prayer without talking about the heart. He said, Thy Sabant
- 2:51Speaker 1: has found in his heart, in his heart, in his heart.
- 2:56Speaker 1: So it's speci of his revelation of God's word that
- 2:59Speaker 1: makes you find in your heart those words that you're
- 3:03Speaker 1: meant to speak in prayer. Speaking in prayer is the
- 3:07Speaker 1: actual communication. What makes it as is revelation. That's what's
- 3:12Speaker 1: sustain that's the proparer Daniel. If you read the beginning
- 3:15Speaker 1: of that chapter, the Bible says, Daniel understood by the books.
- 3:19Speaker 1: There's two in the first year of the rain, I
- 3:22Speaker 1: Daniel understood by books, of course, the number of years
- 3:27Speaker 1: where the word of the Lord. Now you see the
- 3:28Speaker 1: word of the Lord, revelation came to Jeremid, the prophet
- 3:31Speaker 1: that what he with accomplish mently is the dissolution of Jerusalem.
- 3:35Speaker 1: And I set my face now by this revelation, by
- 3:38Speaker 1: this understanding. So that's why prophecies are important. The essence
- 3:42Speaker 1: of prophecies is to give believers, is to give you
- 3:45Speaker 1: an eye something to fight for when it comes to
- 3:50Speaker 1: the manifestation of what God's will upon the face of
- 3:54Speaker 1: the earth. Yeah, So speaking in prayer, you must know demands, confession, declaration,
- 4:02Speaker 1: and proclamation of the truth of God's world. Now watch this,
- 4:06Speaker 1: the confession of God's world is where mercy is found.
- 4:11Speaker 1: Confession is what is where mercy is obtained. Declaration is
- 4:16Speaker 1: where faith is exercised, declaration of what the truth of
- 4:22Speaker 1: God's world is where your faith. And the last one,
- 4:25Speaker 1: which is proclamation, is where grace is revealed. That's why
- 4:31Speaker 1: we come boldly, He brusht we come boldly what to
- 4:35Speaker 1: the throne of grace to obtain mercy, so that we
- 4:40Speaker 1: will find what help to give in the time of need.
- 4:44Speaker 1: Now understand that statement. Even when you are in lack,
- 4:48Speaker 1: there is a grace to give in lack. So it
- 4:52Speaker 1: still boils down to your heart. Even when you come
- 4:56Speaker 1: boldly to the it still boils down to you. If
- 4:59Speaker 1: you must see and proclaim. Look, you must have this hat,
- 5:02Speaker 1: this disposition. What God is trying to say is that
- 5:06Speaker 1: the easiest way to receive is to give. If your
- 5:09Speaker 1: heart is set like this, there is no prayer. You
- 5:12Speaker 1: won't pray that you won't see the answer. For efficients
- 5:16Speaker 1: chapter five, reading from verse seventeen, he says, wherefore, be
- 5:20Speaker 1: not onwise, but understand what the will of the Lord is.
- 5:24Speaker 1: Now let's continue. So what's this will of the Lord?
- 5:26Speaker 1: He says, And be not drunk with wine. So the
- 5:29Speaker 1: will of the Lord is that we are not drunk
- 5:31Speaker 1: with wine where it says, but it says we should
- 5:33Speaker 1: be filled with the Holy Spirit. Of course, is the
- 5:37Speaker 1: spirit that prepares our hearts ready for prayer in our says,
- 5:41Speaker 1: And how do we get filled? He says, speaking to yourselves. Now,
- 5:45Speaker 1: listen to this. It is not talking about the brethren.
- 5:47Speaker 1: It's talking about you. Are speaking to yourself, and this
- 5:50Speaker 1: is speaking in prayer. This is it. This is the answer,
- 5:53Speaker 1: it says, speaking to yourselves in psalms. Remove that now,
- 5:58Speaker 1: speaking in psalms, speaking in hymns, speaking in spiritual songs,
- 6:07Speaker 1: singing and making melody where we're we're in your heart
- 6:13Speaker 1: onto the Lord, you see. So speaking in psalms, these
- 6:18Speaker 1: are all part of prayer. Because prayer is a spiritual
- 6:21Speaker 1: it's a sacrifice. You don't says what that. All these
- 6:24Speaker 1: things must be done within the confinement of your heart,
- 6:27Speaker 1: the borders of what your hearts. Like I said earlier,
- 6:30Speaker 1: this is not an external affair. This is an eternal affair.
- 6:34Speaker 1: So all these things that makes you to be feeled
- 6:37Speaker 1: are what inside prayer are part of prayer. Whether you're
- 6:40Speaker 1: speaking in psalms or God has delivered me from the
- 6:42Speaker 1: strivings of the people. Either in the secret place of
- 6:45Speaker 1: the moss, I shall abide on the shadow of the Almighty.
- 6:47Speaker 1: Bless the Lord or my soul and all that is
- 6:49Speaker 1: within me. Bless his holy name. I will look up
- 6:50Speaker 1: to the hus from west, connect my health, my head comfort.
- 6:53Speaker 1: All the psalms you those are prayer. All the hymns
- 6:57Speaker 1: that you sing, All the spiritual songs, songs inspired by tongues,
- 7:02Speaker 1: songs inspired by the spirit, they are all all the
- 7:05Speaker 1: melody sounds, including chance, the awards, speaking in prayers, the awards.
- 7:12Speaker 1: So when the Bible is saying praying always being filled,
- 7:15Speaker 1: because by prayer is how people the major way say
- 7:17Speaker 1: we're being filled. The dispute where I say praying always,
- 7:19Speaker 1: These are part of this as the integrities of it.
- 7:24Speaker 1: In other worlds, you cannot be a praying person and
- 7:27Speaker 1: you do not know the Sun, you don't know Sam.
- 7:29Speaker 1: You cannot be a praying person and you can't sing him.
- 7:32Speaker 1: You cannot be a pray prayer. You don't sing spiritual.
- 7:34Speaker 1: So you can be a praying person and you don't
- 7:36Speaker 1: know how to make melody in your heart onto the Lord.
- 7:38Speaker 1: Because prayer is communication that is where that is why
- 7:41Speaker 1: the communication is not effective. Yes, okay, now let's go
- 7:45Speaker 1: back to James Fife where he says, what the effectual
- 7:47Speaker 1: prayer before the effect your prayer. You see that it
- 7:50Speaker 1: says confess your fault. That confession there, it's a prayer.
- 7:54Speaker 1: Prayer activity is part of it. It is what makes
- 7:57Speaker 1: it effectual. Right because confession of God's what has gone
- 8:03Speaker 1: into that confession is not just confessing your faults, also
- 8:06Speaker 1: revealing God's truth about that your faults. That's where the
- 8:11Speaker 1: that's what the essence of the confession. Then you now
- 8:14Speaker 1: go into declaration. That's what the Bible says in June
- 8:16Speaker 1: twenty wards, build up your most holy faith, praying what
- 8:19Speaker 1: in the holy goes, because that is then we now
- 8:22Speaker 1: come over to proclamation where Efficient tells us we should
- 8:26Speaker 1: be filled with this spirit. And he now says this
- 8:29Speaker 1: significance of being filled the spirit is that you are
- 8:32Speaker 1: giving thanks always. So he says, after you are doing
- 8:35Speaker 1: this speaking in prayer, says, the result is that you
- 8:39Speaker 1: are giving thanks all ways efficiance Tares twenty giving thanks
- 8:43Speaker 1: always for all things, all things onto God the Father
- 8:46Speaker 1: in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, giving thanks.
- 8:49Speaker 1: That is your heart's disposition towards the speaking. So Daniel
- 8:54Speaker 1: was saying, while I was speaking in prayer, what happened?
- 8:57Speaker 1: Solution came? It says, I have come to give you skill.
- 9:01Speaker 1: That means sometimes God's answer to you is that he
- 9:05Speaker 1: brings you to the place where you will be skillful. Yes,
- 9:09Speaker 1: because being skillful is different from being knowledge. Remember that
- 9:13Speaker 1: said I understood by the books. I read the books
- 9:15Speaker 1: knowledge of knowledge. But now he said, I'm bringing to
- 9:18Speaker 1: the place where you'll be skillful. So it's not enough
- 9:21Speaker 1: to have all the knowledge. It is important that you
- 9:23Speaker 1: are skillful. That's why the Bible tells us in Hebrews
- 9:26Speaker 1: that what we should be skillful with the world of righteousnes. Yes.
- 9:30Speaker 1: He talked about it in oppositiation by paraphrasing it like
- 9:33Speaker 1: we as believers, we need to be skillful with the
- 9:36Speaker 1: world of righteousness. Very important. Yes, so speaking in prayer
- 9:41Speaker 1: is very important. It's very easy if your heart is
- 9:45Speaker 1: set right. And the only person that can set your
- 9:48Speaker 1: heart a right is the Spirit of God. That is
- 9:51Speaker 1: why the Holy Spirit comes into your heart after you
- 9:54Speaker 1: have received Jesus as Lord. He comes in and prepares
- 9:57Speaker 1: your heart for what and effect actual prayer life. I
