Bible Texts: Eph.6:18, Lk.18:1, Mk.9:29, Lk.10:19, Heb.11:11:2, Jn.3:3-5, Heb.11:6, Ps.24:1-2, Heb.10:35, Jn.10:10, 2Tim.2:15, 2Cor.5:17
Praying always with all prayer and supplication in the Spirit and watching thereunto with all perseverance and supplication for all saints (Eph.6:18)
Yesterday, we began to look at prayer as a weapon of warfare God has given to the husbandman to prevail over the circumstances of life, and to empower him to succeed in his assignments as the good and godly man, husband and father. This is because praying as a lifestyle is the husbandman’s greatest spiritual attitude of victory and influence (Lk.18:1).
But how do I pray effectively as I run this race of becoming the good and godly husbandman?
To pray effectively, you must have the foundation of God’s word.
Study to show thyself approved as a workman unto God that needeth not to be ashamed, rightly dividing the word of truth (2Tim.2:15)
When you pray, you must pray with the word of God, which is the way, the truth and the life. This is why you must take personal responsibility to study the word of God, with the Person of the Holy Spirit helping you, so that you know the mind of God and pray according to His perfect will on every aspect of your life as the man, husband and father.
Another important demand from you that will make you access the power of God for a victorious life through the prayer platform is walking in the fear and admonition of the Lord. After you are born again, you must ensure you do only those things that will please God and bring honour to Him (Jn.3:3-5, Ps.24:1-2, 2Cor.5:17).
Finally, you must walk by faith in God and be hopeful in His word as you engage the prayer weapon (Heb.10:35, Heb.11:2). God answers prayers when you call but you must believe that He answers and His is faithful (Heb.11:6).
You must understand and be aware that there is a fierce battle raging against the husbandman. Satan, sin and the world are contending against the husbandman’s design to becoming good and godly (Jn.10:10). But the empowerment of the Holy Ghost which comes from the prayer altar has given the husbandman victory. Praise God!
The power of God is what you need to do the perfect will of God as the good and godly man, husband and father (Philp.2:13). And without God helping you, you will struggle to please the Lord Jesus Christ. This is why you must pray without ceasing and praying always in all supplications.
Hallelujah!
