In Jesus’ Name we have life (visualize the flow of life into you as living water Jn. 4:10, 14).

Father, I confess our (i.e. self, immediate family, household, etc) sins, so  clean with the blood (to cover the multitude of sins, 1Pet. 4: 7-8, keep the commandment without spot, 1Tim.6:14 and edify ourselves in love, Eph.4:15; 1Jn.5:16).

 

In Jesus’ Name we have life (visualize the flow of life into you as living water Jn. 4:10, 14).

 

I set my will and determine to apply completely and operate diligently (Ps. 119:112) the principles of perfection doing all God reveals to me to do (Phil.2:13): acknowledging  and inquiring of the Lord in my thinking by frequently {at least once every conscious hour (Mt.24:42)} asking the Holy Spirit with thanksgiving (Col.4:2) for mercy unto eternal life to be faithful to do all things with love (1Cor.16:14); by watchful praying in tongues to wash feet (Jn.13:14): forgive, confess and cleanse our sins (1Jn.1:9); ask for life (1Jn.5:16) and pray in tongues (Jude 20-21; 1Cor.14:18) for us to bind the devil (Mt.11:12; 12:29) in the air (Eph.2:2), enforce the kingdom: righteousness, peace and joy in the Holy Spirit (Rom.14:17), at least once every six hours, at every opportunity and during temptations as led by the Spirit (Gen.24:27), as I think (Phil.4:8) and act on the word (Phil.4:9); so praying  without ceasing (in my heart) in all honesty and humility, without fear, boldly and diligently by the mercy and grace of God.

 

Pray fervently in tongues for a short while (10-15 seconds) to release mercy and grace to bring to pass all you have just confessed. Meditate (think on and say in your heart) the confession as you pray in tongues.

 

Father, I confess our (i.e. self, immediate family, household, etc) sins, so clean with the blood (to cover the multitude of sins, 1Pet. 4: 7-8, keep the commandment without spot, 1Tim.6:14 and edify ourselves in love, Eph.4:15; 1Jn.5:16).

 

In Jesus’ Name we have life (visualize the flow of life into you as living water Jn. 4:10, 14).

 

I submit my will firstly to God through His word, and also through my conscience with reverence (without God I cannot survive spiritually: Jn. 1:1). Secondly, I submit to those in authority over me (spiritual fathers and mothers, pastors, husband, parents, boss,  etc) with reverence (without them I cannot survive physically and progress spiritually: Eph. 6: 1-3) and thirdly, to those I am in authority over (flock, wife, children, servants, etc.) with meekness (without them I cannot progress spiritually or physically: Eph. 4: 16) when what they say is in line with the word of God and will of God but it is inconvenient for my pride and  feelings making  me lower (Phil.2:7) than I think or know I am. I esteem my colleagues as better than myself and maintain an attitude of reverence to those above and meekness to those below me in authority, as well as towards all men, even when I think or know I am right and they are wrong.

 

Pray fervently in tongues for a short while (10-15 seconds) to release mercy and grace to bring to pass all you have just confessed. Meditate (think on and say in your heart) the confession as you pray in tongues.

 

Monitor your attitude through out the day. Exercise your heart in honesty by speaking the truth to yourself in your heart and humility by submitting your will to do this truth (Acts 24:16, 2Cor.4:2, Ps.15:2).

 

Before going to pray to receive the life of God and pray in the Spirit with all types of prayer it is vital to pray for humility, the seven spirits of God (Isa.11:2) and for a heart that loves God. Do this by praying the following prayers:

Father, I confess our (i.e. self, immediate family, household, etc) sins, so clean with the blood (to cover the multitude of sins, 1Pet. 4: 7-8, keep the commandment without spot, 1Tim.6:14 and edify ourselves in love, Eph.4:15; 1Jn.5:16).

 

In Jesus’ Name we have life (visualize the flow of life into you as living water Jn. 4:10, 14).

 

I choose to fear God (Pr.1:29) so I humble myself by submitting to the will of God even when I don’t feel like it (Phil.2:8) especially in prayer knowing the certainty of His judgement if I disobey (Heb.2:2) and the security of His mercy when I obey (Pro. 28:13; Jas. 2:13); so I have the humility of the mind of Christ ( Phil. 2:5).

 

Meditate: Think for a short while on what you have just said with a determination to practice it.

 

Pray in tongues for a short while as above and as you pray, say in your heart and determine to practice what you have just confessed, mentally acknowledging with thanksgiving (Col.4:2) the presence of the three Persons of the God-Head in the air around you (Psalms 16:8). Time: About 1 minute.

In Jesus’ Name we have life (visualize the flow of life into you as living water Jn. 4:10, 14).

 

Father, please give me the spirit of wisdom and revelation (Eph. 1:17) in the present complete knowledge and spiritual understanding (Col.1:9-11) of You to grow into the perfection and fullness of Christ (Eph. 4:11-15), to walk in love (Phil.1:9; Eph.4:15; 5:2), to watch and pray always (Lk. 21:36): to make me as wise as a serpent, as harmless as a dove (Matt.10:16) and as bold as a lion (Pro.28:1) and give me the ability of the mind of Christ (1Cor.2:16) in Jesus Name.

I love God with all my heart: will, mind, emotions and strength (Mk.12:30); and I love my brethren as Christ loves them (Jn.13:34): washing their feet (Jn.13:14-15) by forgiving,  confessing and so cleansing their sins (Jn.20:23; 1Jn.1:9), asking life for them (1Jn.5:16) and praying for them in tongues frequently (1Cor.14:18; Jude 20) at least once every six hours (2Sam. 6:13, Mk.13:35)  and at every opportunity and in every temptation to cover for every hour through out the day, to help them repent to will and do of God’s good pleasure (Phil.2:13, Heb. 13:21).

WORSHIP

 

Step 3a:  LIFE AND POWER SCRIPTURES

The life of God is the spiritual substance inside God that makes Him God (Jn.5:26). It is also called living water (Jn.4:10, Rev.22:1). It contains His attributes: power, love, wisdom etc. It is important before we do in-depth praying in the Spirit to ensure that the abundance of our heart (Lk.6:45) is full of the life and power of God (Eph.5:18), Jn.6:63). This is similar to filling the tank of your car with petrol to ensure you can complete the trip.

Step 3b:  Making your prayer request.

HOMES AND FAMILIES

1. To cause the foundation of our homes to endure the refining by fire; enabling us as husbands, wives and children to come out purified as golden vessels, meet for the Master’s use, prepared unto every good work.

 

2. To grant husbands and wives the ability to discern the present mind of God for their homes and to exercise the decisiveness and firmness to follow through with the perfect will of God.

 

3. To break the hold of the spirits of DIVINATION, ERROR and ENCHANTMENT unleashed upon our homes, our spouses, our children and concerning the issue of marriage.

 

4. To establish the kingdom of God in our homes, in our spouses and children and concerning the issue of marriage, so that in all our lives God’s perfect will is done.

5. To cause pregnant women in our sanctuary to bring forth, normal, live, healthy babies without any complications, so that in this sanctuary, Scripture Pasture Christian Centre, we shall not cast away our young and neither will any be barren.

6. To cause husbands and wives to have knowledge, understanding and wisdom on how to build their homes on the revealed knowledge of the word of God to effectively ensure that the gates of hell do not prevail against them. To effectively take our homes by force, establishing the kingdom of God: righteousness, peace and joy in the Holy Spirit in our homes.

 

7. To bind the hearts of the husband, wife and children in love, empowering us to walk in divine love one toward another in our families.

 

8. To cast out every demonic oppression, force and effects, especially spirits of infirmity, premature death, evil incidents and accidents, plague and lack which the enemy has unleashed against our homes. To cast out spirits of barrenness (spiritual or physical) where applicable that have been sent to attach themselves to our homes.

9. As we pray for mercy, grace and help for our homes to enable us to close every loophole and to be divinely protected from every onslaught of the evil one. That the Lord will grant us mercy, grace and help to enable us to fulfill the vision for which God has set up our homes.

10. For God to cause our children to grow up in the nurture and admonition of the Lord, and to grant the parents knowledge, understanding, wisdom and instruction to bring up their children; not provoking them to wrath; causing our children to be taught of the Lord and great to be their peace.

11. For God to grant the children also knowledge understanding wisdom and instruction to honour and to relate to their parents so it is well with them and they live long.

12. That the Lord will have mercy on us to put away strange gods that are amongst us and be clean; changing our garments by the mercy of God; enabling us to be properly attired for the feast of fat things.

 

Step 4:  Prayer in the Spirit with all types of prayer (1 Timothy 2:1-4; Ephesians 6:18; Hebrews 5:7) (35-40 minutes.)*

 

In Jesus’ Name we have life.

Holy Spirit, please pour afresh on me the spirit of grace, travail and compassion enabling me to pray with all types of prayer in the Spirit as I pray now. Dear Lord Jesus, in this regard, please release Your grace; dear Heavenly Father, please release Your mercies, as I pray now in Jesus’ name.  (It is vital to acknowledge the three Persons of the Godhead, in this way so your prayer will not be dull and mechanical, but refreshing.)

 

Proceed to pray with all types of prayer in the Spirit.

 

Step 5: Binding the Devil (Matthew 12:29) (1min)*

At the end of all the praying in the Spirit, we replenish our hearts with the life of God.  This is like refilling the tank of a car with petrol after a long journey.

 

Then pray:

Father, I confess our (i.e. self, immediate family, household, etc) sins, so  clean with the blood (to cover the multitude of sins, 1Pet. 4: 7-8, keep the commandment without spot, 1Tim.6:14 and edify ourselves in love, Eph.4:15; 1Jn.5:16).

 

In Jesus’ Name we have life (visualize the flow of life into you as living water Jn. 4:10, 14).

Father, give life to our spirits now and that in a measure that is more than enough to bind the devil, loose the angels, confess the word and pray in the Spirit concerning this prayer request in Jesus’ Name. Amen.

 

In Jesus’ Name we have life.

Wicked spirits in the heavenlies and in the earth that we have overcome during this time of prayer, we destroy your works, resist and bind you in Jesus’ Name. Amen.

 

In Jesus’ Name we have life.

Evil spirits in the earth that may be oppressing or attacking the souls, bodies and circumstances of ourselves (self, members of immediate family and household) and the specific people we have prayed for, we cast you out, destroy your works, resist and bind you in Jesus’ Name. Amen.

 

Step 6:  Loosing the Angels in the Understanding (Matthew 18:18)  (1 minute)*

 

Pray and say:

In Jesus’ Name we have life.

We loose the angels of God with the seven spirits of God: the spirit of the fear of God, of knowledge, understanding, wisdom and revelation, counsel, might and the spirit of love to go forth now in the name of Jesus to occupy the air and so enforce and execute God’s perfect will concerning our prayers in Jesus’ Name. Amen.

 

Step 7:  Confession of Faith to Bring the Answer into Physical Manifestation (Mark  11:23; Romans 10:10) (1min)*

 

In Jesus’ Name we have life.

God’s perfect will concerning our prayers is established and in full physical manifestation in Jesus’ Name. Amen.

 

In Jesus’ Name we have life.

All the people and groups of people God is using to answer our prayers have the mind and ability of Christ, are meek and lowly in heart, redeeming the time and are temperate and protected from death in this regard in Jesus’ Name. Amen.

 

Pray in tongues for a short while (about 1 minute)  and as you pray, say in your heart and determine to practice what you have just confessed, mentally acknowledging with thanksgiving (Col.4:2) the presence of the three Persons of the God-Head in the air around you (Psalms 16:8).
