Pray In the Stream

Therefore He is also able to save to the uttermost those who come to God through Him, since He always lives to make intercession for them.

 

For such a High Priest was fitting for us, who is holy, harmless, undefiled....and has become higher than the heavens. Hebrews 7:25, 26

When we pray, it is fitting that we pray in the stream of His wisdom.

It is imperative that we pray by the Word and through the Holy Spirit so we are indeed praying the will and purpose of heaven. 

How do we pray His way? He is currently, right now, praying for us. 

There is a stream of prayer from heaven which we have been invited to join our hearts to. How do we do this?

Rejoice always, pray without ceasing, in everything give thanks; 

for this is the will of God in Christ Jesus for you. 

Do not quench the Spirit. 

1 Thessalonians 5:16-19

There is a cloud and rain, a wellspring and stream, provided for us, to join with Him, in our prayers. 

He would not command us to pray without ceasing if this was an impossible task. He has provided the resources.

We hide the Word of God within our hearts and we pray by the unction of the Holy Spirit. 

He has provided all the provisions we will ever need to pray His way. To pray in agreement with His will. 

His kingdom come and His will be done!

Cloud and rain- Isaiah 55:10

Wellspring- Isaiah 12:3

Stream- Revelation 22:1-4

Praying in the stream will cause us to pray with ease. Effortless. He has made a way for us to address the courts of heaven. 

We have been given legal and certified standing as if we are attorneys within the courts of heaven. 

We take our "Bar Exam" by reading His Word, Hiding His Word in our hearts.

We depend upon the Holy Spirit to guide and facilitate our prayers. This means we pray His way, we pray His royal Word and we pray by unction of the Holy Spirit. 

Though we pray with our understanding, though we pray what is on our hearts and minds, we don't pray by our limited intellect.

We most certainly don't pray our emotions, our panic, our worry, our own limited expectations- we pray in faith.

We don't pray the news-we pray His Good News.

As we sing and worship, giving thanksgiving, our hearts are freed to see things from His perspective.

This is why the Word admonishes us to enter His gates with thanksgiving. Enter His Courts with praise- to join the River from His Throne.

We pray with His understanding by praying in the stream. The stream provides His vast supply of wealth, health and superior knowledge and wisdom.  

He created all things for His pleasure, therefore prayer itself is wondrous and filled with Living Waters.  These waters flow to and from heaven's vast storehouse of joy and reconciliation. 

Our prayers are unctioned by delight through a generous Holy Spirit.

What is the conclusion then? I will pray with the spirit, and I will also pray with understanding. 

I will sing with the spirit and I will also sing with the understanding. 

1 Corinthians 14:15 

Beloved, if you ask, He will teach you how to pray His way. The disciples asked and now we have the beautiful "Our Father" known as The Lord's Prayer. 

This prayer has saved lives over the centuries. However, this is not the end all of prayers, this was just the beginning.

Messiah will show you the way to pray in the stream. The joy filled stream which flows from the depths of Messiah, right now. It's never ending.
