1 This mrning I want t cntinue with the subject matter BUILDING AN EFFECTIVE PRAYER LIFE In the last 2 weeks we cvered the fllwing 1. Yur attitude twards prayer determines its effectiveness 2. Make prayers f faith. 3. Prayers funded n the revelatin f the father heart f Gd Matthew 6:9 "In this manner, therefre, pray: Our Father in heaven, Hallwed be Yur name. 10 Yur kingdm cme. Yur will be dne On earth as it is in heaven. 11 Give us this day ur daily bread. 12 And frgive us ur debts, As we frgive ur debtrs. 13 And d nt lead us int temptatin, But deliver us frm the evil ne. Fr Yurs is the kingdm and the pwer and the glry frever. Amen. Did yu knw that in the same way that we all have different shapes physically, we als have different shapes spiritually. When yu g t the gym and yu nly exercise ne part f yur bdy muscles, yu will realize that yu will be effective as lng as its nly thse muscles yu will need. In ther wrds yur strength will be ut f balance. A lt f peple have unbalanced prayer lives, as a result their lives are unbalanced unless yu are aware f the different types f prayers, yu will nly exercise the nes yu are aware f. This mrning I want t take yu thrugh the different types f prayers. When yu g thrugh the Lrd s Prayer, yu will realize that there are different types f prayers that Jesus alluded t. The Lrd s Prayer is meant t be a mdel f thse prayers. Let s get int them 4. Embrace all types f prayers Ephesians 6:18 Pray in the Spirit at all times, with every kind f prayer and petitin. T this end, stay alert with all perseverance in yur prayers fr all the saints. 1 Timthy 2:1 First f all, then, I urge that supplicatins, prayers, intercessins, and thanksgivings be made fr all peple. 1 Building an effective prayer life Prt 3: Michael Manyuni 18 March 2018
2 4.1 Prayers f wrship Many times we are nt aware that we idlize urselves but Gd called us t wrship Him. Prayers f wrship rightly places wrship where wrship belngs. A prayer f wrship fcuses n wh Gd is the nature and character f Gd. When we wrship, we are saying that Gd has wrth, that he is wrthy. Wrship means t declare wrth, t attribute wrth. We speak, r sing, abut hw gd and pwerful Gd is. Wrship attracts the presence f Gd int yur prayer life Gd cmes where He is welcme, where He is revered and where He is acknwledged, In the Lrd s prayer, right n the nset Jesus says start by wrshiping the Father Hallwed be Yur name That term hallwed simply means t render r prnunce hly - "Let thy name be celebrated, and venerated, and esteemed as hly everywhere, and receive f all men prper hnurs When Gd is present, it becmes easy t present yur requests The bible has s many examples f wrds we can use in ur prayers f wrship 1 Samuel 2:2There is n ne hly like the Lrd; there is n ne besides yu; there is n Rck like ur Gd. Psalm 111: Praise f Wrks and Deeds Praise the LORD. I will extl the LORD with all my heart in the cuncil f the upright and in the assembly. Great are the wrks f the LORD; they are pndered by all wh delight in them. Glrius and majestic are his deeds, and his righteusness endures frever. He has caused his wnders t be remembered; the LORD is gracius and cmpassinate. He prvides fd fr thse wh fear him; he remembers his cvenant frever. Ephesians 3:20 Nw t him wh is able t d immeasurably mre than all we ask r imagine, accrding t his pwer that is at wrk within us, t him be glry in the church and in Christ Jesus thrughut all generatins, fr ever and ever! Amen. Psalm 63:3-4 Because yur lve is better than life, my lips will glrify yu. I will praise yu as lng as I live, and in yur name I will lift up my hands. Smetime we fail t wrship during ur times f prayer because ur vcabulary is limited cnsider the fllwing ways f addressing Gd in wrship Yu are the great I am, the Lin f the tribe f Judah The lily f the valley, the bright mrning star The ancient f days, the unchanging Gd 2 Building an effective prayer life Prt 3: Michael Manyuni 18 March 2018
3 The creatr f the heavens and the earth Yur lve endures frever, yur mercies are new every mrning Yu are quick t frgive and slw t get angry, full f mercy and grace Wrship pens wide the windws f heaven and the king f glry cmes int yur space. Wrship is a weapn that attracts the heavenly hsts t cme and fight fr yu 4.2 Prayers f cnfessin S many times we fall ff the bat, we experience sins f cmmissin and sins f missin. We are human beings wh are prne t sin what happens when we miss the mark (sin). Des it mean we lse ur place in Gd r what. That is why prayers f cnfessin are very imprtant - Gd has called us t cme t Him, seeking His frgiveness. In the Lrd s prayer Jesus taught t us pray in this manner 12 And frgive us ur debts, As we frgive ur debtrs Sin separates us frm Gd; He is perfect and cannt tlerate the presence f sin. 1Jhn 1:8 If we say that we have n sin, we deceive urselves, and the truth is nt in us. 9 If we cnfess ur sins, He is faithful and just t frgive us ur sins and t cleanse us frm all unrighteusness. 10 If we say that we have nt sinned, we make Him a liar, and His wrd is nt in us. Because sin separates us frm Gd, sin becmes the stumbling blck t an effective prayer. Sin empwers the enemy by bringing accusatins against us Zechariah 3:1 Then he shwed me Jshua the high priest standing befre the Angel f the LORD, and Satan standing at his right hand t ppse him. 2 And the LORD said t Satan, "The LORD rebuke yu, Satan! The LORD wh has chsen Jerusalem rebuke yu! Is this nt a brand plucked frm the fire?" 3 Nw Jshua was clthed with filthy garments, and was standing befre the Angel. 4 Then He answered and spke t thse wh std befre Him, saying, "Take away the filthy garments frm him." And t him He said, "See, I have remved yur iniquity frm yu, and I will clthe yu with rich rbes." 5 And I said, "Let them put a clean turban n his head." S they put a clean turban n his head, and they put the clthes n him. And the Angel f the LORD std by. Cnsider the fllwing issues - Arrgance (pride, haughtiness, cntrlling) Hatred, (racism, jealusy, evil acts) Idlatry, (Anything that is mre imprtant than Gd t yu.) Adultery/lust (prngraphy is included) The primary Greek wrd fr cnfess is hmlge which basically means t say the same thing and then agree, admit, acknwledge. 3 Building an effective prayer life Prt 3: Michael Manyuni 18 March 2018
4 When the spirit f Gd cmes and cnvicts yu f sin when yu chse t cnfess, yu are simply saying the same as the spirit is saying, yu are in agreement with the cnvictin. Hw d yu make effective prayers f cnfessin? It is imprtant fr yu t knw that Gd lves yu s much and wants a healthy relatinship with yu. Frm His place f lve, Gd affrds us every pprtunity t cnfess ur sins and t be instantly frgiven Effective prayers f cnfessin result frm: A heart f humility and brkenness Gd wants t see true and meaningful repentance James 4:6 But He gives mre grace. Therefre He says: "Gd resists the prud, But gives grace t the humble." Be specific abut the issue - nt generic frms f cnfessins. Tell Gd what yu did. Prverbs 28:13 He wh cvers his sins will nt prsper, But whever cnfesses and frsakes them will have mercy. Acknwledge that yu have sinned Psalms 51: 1 Have mercy upn me, O Gd, Accrding t Yur lvingkindness; Accrding t the multitude f Yur tender mercies, Blt ut my transgressins. 2 Wash me thrughly frm my iniquity, And cleanse me frm my sin. 3 Fr I acknwledge my transgressins, And my sin is always befre me. 4 Against Yu, Yu nly, have I sinned, And dne this evil in Yur sight-that Yu may be fund just when Yu speak, And blameless when Yu judge. Be willing t frgive thers Matthew 6:12 And frgive us ur debts, As we frgive ur debtrs. Mark 11:25 "And whenever yu stand praying, if yu have anything against anyne, frgive him, that yur Father in heaven may als frgive yu yur trespasses. 26 "But if yu d nt frgive, neither will yur Father in heaven frgive yur trespasses." Believe and receive Gd s frgiveness many times we fail t mve frward because we fail t receive Gd s frgiveness 4 Building an effective prayer life Prt 3: Michael Manyuni 18 March 2018
5 Isaiah 43:25 I, even I, am he wh blts ut yur transgressins, fr my wn sake, and remembers yur sins n mre. 26 Review the past fr me, let us argue the matter tgether; state the case fr yur inncence. Isaiah 1:18 Cme nw, let us settle the matter, says the LORD. Thugh yur sins are like scarlet, they shall be as white as snw; thugh they are red as crimsn, they shall be like wl. Ephesians 1:7 In him we have redemptin thrugh his bld, the frgiveness f sins, in accrdance with the riches f Gd s grace 5 Building an effective prayer life Prt 3: Michael Manyuni 18 March 2018
