Prayer is one of the most misunderstood concepts in many religious practices across the world. Yet, it is also the most important spiritual activity on earth.
Prayer is not just communicating with God. It is not just asking God for what you want. It is a means—a means of getting things done in the spirit!
On earth, man CANNOT do anything without God, and God WILL NOT do anything without man. So, there is always a partnership between heaven and earth. That's where prayer comes in.
Here’s something important—what happens on earth depends on man because God has given him dominion over the earth, and He doesn’t interfere with that.
Look at what the Bible says:
"The heaven, even the heavens, are the Lord’s: but the earth hath He given to the children of men." —Psalm 115:16 (KJV).
Also, in Genesis 1:26;
"And God said 'Let us make man in our image, after our likeness: and let them have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the fowl of the air, and over the cattle, and over all the earth, and over every creeping thing that creepeth upon the earth.'"
So, the dominion of man over the earth is unquestionable, which means the intervention of God will require man. That’s why prayer is not an option for you but a necessity. It is not a religious activity but a spiritual connectivity.
Now you understand that God needs you in order to intervene on earth. And nothing can happen on earth without your cooperation with God. So, prayer is crucial for your success on earth.
Here’s another important point: without prayer, you cannot accomplish your purpose on earth. You cannot exercise your spiritual authority. So, prayer is as important as your breath. It is as important as your life.
Let me take you deeper. When you pray, you tap into spiritual energy and make grace available.
Prayer makes you connect to your divine source—your Heavenly Father—the Father of all creation, in whom all power in heaven and earth belongs.
There is no other authority higher than the authority of our God. And when you pray, you connect to that authority. So, every other authority, including the ones on earth, must submit to God’s authority. Prayer makes you connect to that authority.
When you pray, you see things in the realm of the spirit. You control and manage things. You also discern things. You know what is to happen and how to navigate life and situations. Prayer makes you a true ambassador of your heavenly Father on earth.
Through prayer, you can also create things and receive great ideas that will liberate the world.
I love what David said—he said, “Let the words of my mouth and the meditation of my heart be acceptable unto You, O Lord, my salvation.” That is what I call prayer: the words of your mouth and the meditation of your heart. Prayer starts with the words that are in your mouth and the meditations that are in your heart.
This is very important to understand about prayer. If you stop praying with your mouth, don’t stop praying in your heart. That is why the Bible says, “Pray at all seasons. Pray always.”
This is because it is important to keep praying if you want to win in the battles of life.
