How to pray big answers
Two recent ones the LORD gave me
Dear elect of GOD.
Once again…
At the risk of repeating myself, may I ask you this question?
Are you aware of the invincible power in your hand?
Your unstoppable potential to change lives.
To set people free.
Consistently.
Profoundly.
Forever.
Including even the power to affect the destiny of nations?
All by YOUR ‘sapling’ prayers to GOD.
So for a few seconds let’s imagine this scenario…
What if...
What you pray for already exists?
Imagine.
That would be cool eh :)
Because then you’d only need to visit our Father’s vast, limitless ‘heavenly’ store and collect what you request.*
And carry it back down here to earth.
Kind of ;)
Anyhow, hold that thought.
Let’s read on…
“Now faith is the assurance that what we hope for will come about and the certainty that what we cannot see exists.
Hebrews 11:1 ISV
Ponder the implications of what is opened to us in this breathtaking portion of manna.
It appears…
What we cannot see exists.
What we hope for will come about.
Certainty is available in prayer.
However,
Without entering dangerous ‘scripture as talisman’ or ‘name it and claim it style faith teaching’ territory…
It’s my conviction this verse in the ISV, does hand us a VERY potent key to praying through and receiving BIG ANSWERS from our Father in heaven.
That said.
A few days ago I was on the phone speaking with a precious subscriber…
And shared that for the past ten months (maybe more) the LORD had led me to specifically pray for the salvation of Jews in Jerusalem itself.
I’d gotten rolling simply enough…
Every. Single. Day.
And after praying wispy ‘sapling’ type prayers to begin with. (Prayers with hardly any power. Weak ‘low faith’… almost unbelieving type prayers tbh).
Yet.
Slowly, imperceptibly,
Little by little. Day by day. Faith began springing up in my heart.
Until suddenly two weeks ago…
WHAM!
The LORD stunned me with His answer.
500 Jews born again in ONE meeting—in Jerusalem!
Now they have eternal life.
These Jews have FINALLY met their beloved, longed for Messiah! Praise GOD :) Revival among Jews... in Jerusalem in 2023?
One day. One city—Jerusalem. One saviour.
And a single massive answer.
However guess what…
For a couple of days before, I mentioned to the LORD that I'd no idea how my prayers for these Jews in Jerusalem were going.
Or if anything was happening at all.
Yet in answer, two tiny days later…
KAPOW!
GOD answers and honestly, I’m still blown away.
All glory goes to Father, Son and Holy Spirit.
Was I the only one praying for this?
Of course not— And this kind of breakthrough, is vital to Gods End Time Plan. So there's no doubt He’s got a whole team of prayer warriors on it all over.
He directs us all.
Anyway...
Here is the video report of what has just happened!
Fantastic encouragement eh!
Anyhow.
The other big prayer answer came in February (which alters the future of this nation)... when the LORD removed Nicola Sturgeon from her office.
…In DIRECT ANSWER TO PRAYER.
This scripture captures all perfectly…
“You have been weighed in the balance and found wanting.”
Daniel 5:27 ESV.
For as you probably know…
Nicola Sturgeon was the First Minister of Scotland. A woman who dominated Scottish politics for more than a decade. Utterly unassailable in power.
No matter…
Prayer went up— and 7 days later,
KAZAMM!
She was gone.
Prayer went up—GOD acted in His sovereignty.
And all the glory is His alone!
So if His handwriting appears on the walls of your office, there’s no escape!
“They drank wine and praised the gods of gold and silver, bronze, iron, wood, and stone.
Immediately the fingers of a human hand appeared and wrote on the plaster of the wall of the king's palace, opposite the lampstand. And the king saw the hand as it wrote.
Then the king's colour changed, and his thoughts alarmed him; his limbs gave way, and his knees knocked together.”
… That very night Belshazzar the Chaldean king was killed. 31 And Darius the Mede received the kingdom, being about sixty-two years old.”
Daniel 5: 4-6, 30. ESV.
Review how the LORD directed the prayer He gave me here.
Was I the only one praying for this ‘Queen of Scotland’ to be removed?
No.
Of course not…
GOD has His people in place all over.
And as His saints, we’re given great authority in Christ overcomer.
So that high above us all, in the seat of real power…
The King of Kings and LORD of LORDS hears prayer and acts.
Why?
He is holy.
He will not be mocked.
Nor His word…
“So God created man in his own image, in the image of God he created him; male and female he created them.”
Genesis 1:27 ESV
Pray BOLDLY. Keep going. Your answer is on its way.
Trust Him only and act accordingly.
Bless you saint.
Dave.
This was a God-inspired post. Thank you, Dave.
