Your Answered Prayer - The Priority of Prayer

the believers walk of faith is paid for by bill Winston ministries partners and viewers ethnics on the believers walketh behaves talking about prayer and he's talking about someone who needs prayer and he's talking about how prayer is answered that it's not gonna be answered just because you're a child of God it's not gonna be answered because of that is you're gonna be answered first because you met the biblical rules about which prayer has to be offered and that you understand your covenant that you have right to answered prayer mark 11 and starting reading here at verse 15 and they come to Jerusalem and Jesus went into the temple and began to cast out them that sold and bought in the temple and overthrew the tables of the moneychangers and the seats of them that sold doves and would not suffer that any man should carry any vessel through the temple and he taught saying unto them is it not written my house shall be called of all nations the House of Prayer but you've made it a den of thieves now that's interesting because sometimes I go to mark 11:24 not me and mark 11 we go to mark 11:23 24 so forth and so on but up here to me is the foundation of all of that working here he says something that that the house of God shall be called a house of prayer so we are gonna call this for the next few lessons we're gonna call it the priority of Prayer there are two levels there are two realms that realm the spirit and the realm of the natural for things to be done in the natural they're gonna in the kingdom they're gonna have to be first done in the spirit you're gonna have to there's some body is gonna have to pray and get that done in the spirit even if you're getting people born again there has to be prayer to birth them first in the spirit and I think the church I suggested one time that we have a prayer tower and our prayer tower be down at the Sears building I don't know what they call it now but it'd be way up high you know I just want to put it way up high now I know you can you can pray in a closet but I wanted way of because I my vision was to have churches to all participate and have different shifts and that prayer would go forward 24/7 if you if you remember well you probably don't because I watched you know some western movies if in the western movies down at the end of the street there's always a church house and I think it was there to keep down the evil in the city and if the evil is gonna be kept down in Chicago it's gonna be the church that's gonna do it say so so we've got to this thing plucked up by the road we've got to go to the root of some of these problems and the church is the world's only hope and the reason why is because the church can deal with Satan in the spirit that Jesus said that we're seated far above all principalities in powers and might let's go over the Ephesians please any fees in Chapter six he says here starting at verse 10 finally my brother and be strong in the Lord and in the power of his might put on the whole armour of God that you may be able to stand against the wives of the devil for we wrestle not against what flesh and blood but against what principalities and powers and rulers of the darkness of this world against wicked spirits in high places wherefore take unto you the whole armour of God that you may be able to withstand in the evil day and having done all to stand what do you do stand there for having a Lawrence girded about with truth and having on the breastplate of righteousness and your feet shod with the preparation of the gospel of peace and above all take up the what shield of faith that's where faith comes in wherewith you shall be able to quench all the fiery darts of the wicked and take the helmet of salvation and the sword of the Spirit which is the what we're of God praying always with all prayer and supplication in the spirit and watching thereunto with all perseverance and supplication for All Saints let's just stop right there but look at that praying always verse 18 put it up there in the amplified translation pray at all times on every occasion in every season in the spirit with all manner of prayer than entreaty all manner of Prayer who's telling you there are different types of Prayer and there are different types some of them one intercessory prayer this is where you are behind the scenes really getting things done I tell people sometimes I said you know I believe that when Jesus starts rewarding people you know for things that done in the earth I think at the front of line there gonna be a lot of women that you know up in age or whatever in their prayer closet praying for people like me and praying for people like uni you never saw but they're gonna be at this front of the line getting some of the biggest rewards and that's because they understood the importance in the priority of Prayer they they knew that nothing happened without it and and so they were interested in prayer so that was intercessory prayers money I mean I have money but you could spend an hour before God praying for this church praying for people to get saved praying for so forth it's fun your contribution can be prayer and if you pray right you'll have some money you have some money God rewards the righteous the next ton of prayer is petition prayer is petition prayers asking for something and all that's in the Bible as well and mark 11:24 were two other things you desire when you pray believe you receive them you shall have them over in Philippians chapter 4 in verse 6 I'd be careful for nothing but in all things by prayer and what supplication with what Thanksgiving let your requests be made known what unto God and the peace of God which passes all understanding shall guard your hearts and minds through Christ Jesus the priority of Prayer that if you want to receive something from God it's got to pray it you've got to believe you received it when you pray another one is agreement trevor agreement and it says of matthew matthew chapter 18 and verse 19 and he says to them that if the two of you shall agree on earth as touching anything that you shall ask it shall be done for them of my father which is in heaven it didn't say it Mike no see youuuu I can't hear you it didn't say it might see God Psalm 111 God is a covenant-keeping god he'll be ever mindful of his covenant this this this whole covenant thing look at Luke chapter 11 verse 1 this homecoming a thing watch watch this and it came to pass that as he was praying in a certain place when he sees one of his disciples Saturday and Lord teach us to pray as John taught his disciples so John taught his disciples how to pray no one of yous having all that success when you pray say so right there it's not a silent prayer there's no such thing as a silent prayer well pastor I've been praying I just praying silently no yeah you haven't been praying you've been fooling yourself is what you've been doing our Father which art in heaven hallowed be thy name thy kingdom come Thy we'll be done in heaven sword in the earth give us this day our daily bread and forgive us our sins as we forgive everyone that is indented to us and lead us not to temptation but deliver us from evil and he said to them which of you shall have a friend and shall go into him at midnight and saying to him friend lend me three loaves now did some people think this is a whole nother story here he's talking about prayer and a friend of mine is come and in his journey it's come to me and I have nothing to set before and he from within shall answer and say trouble me not the door is now shut and my children are with me in bed I cannot rise and give thee I said to you though he will not rise and give him because he is his friend but because of his importunity he will rise and give him as many as he needed let's go to that verse in the amplified he says friend yet because of his shameless persistence and insistence he will get up glory to God and give him as much as he needs did not something know he's not talking you know about some relative come by and one a borrowed you know twenty dollars he's talking about prayer and he's talking about someone who needs prayer and he's talking about how prayer is answered that is not gonna be answered just because you're a child of God it's not gonna be answered because of that is it going to be answered first because you met the biblical rules by which prayer has to be offered and that you understand your covenant that you have right to answered prayer do you have right to answered prayer see prayer needs faith they're like anything else open second Corinthians chapter 4 verse 13 the pudding says he says this we having the same spirit of faith according as it is written I believe and therefore have I spoken we also believe and therefore we speak okay now what is he saying he is saying wait a second I've got to believe prayer I've got to believe that God heard me I've got to believe that this this prayer of mine is going to be answered look what he says in Matthew chapter 9 very quickly and verse 27 and when Jesus departed thence two blind men followed him crying and saying thou son of David have mercy on us and when he was coming to the house the blind men came to him and Jesus said unto them believe he that I'm able to do this and they said to him what yay Lord then touch he their eyes saying according to your faith be it unto you what's this and their eyes were open and Jesus straightened charged them saying see that no man knew it but they went and blabbed it everywhere yeah no no no here's here's what I'm pointing out first there was a shameless approach to Jesus Jesus was going in the house and they come on through the door the man that was up on that roof they remember they took that man up there I took I call that crazy faith but they tore open the wolf roof and let the man down and it's amazing that that shame approach move God see the the word believe has to do with unqualified committal unqualified whatever it takes whatever it takes see it has no boundaries to it you don't woman with the issue blood what does she do she pressed her way through the crowd here's Jesus he's walking with the rabbi he's walking with the head of the synagogue and the head of synagogue was supposed to order her stoning because a woman with initiative blood according to the law shouldn't be out she should be stoned but notice her shameless approach got her heel and that's when you can tell somebody who believes what I'm talking about the prayer of agreement the prayer petition prayer of intercession all these follow that same shameless rule and he said hey he's going to give it to you because you're a friend he'll give it to you because there's a covenant there and that you're gonna have to believe that that covenant you have a right to answered prayer not not not I'm gonna pray for my cousin to get saved and hope he gets saved so I'm going to pray for my daughter to get saved and hope she gets it wrong there is a it says the seed of the righteous shall be delivered that that's your covenant promise that you and your household shall be saved I don't care if that boy had been wayward free twenty years he will be safe and I'm saying when people don't know prayer this is an instant situation we end up it and and the problem is a church and it starts with prayer prayer is joining forces with God it is absolutely allowing God to work he needs it he won't move without it he go stay in the bed sleep and to you you know that of course is you know just a metaphor but he he's he's gonna be resting until prayer wakes him up I'm just saying no God never sleeps but that and I had to learn that I mean enemy came after you know both my kids the war so both my daughter's more children than my son because he we could say them really trench in that word and so forth when I got born again my I I didn't get when I had first had my daughter's I wasn't born again so I couldn't bring them up the day I brought David up on the world but I had to get them in here and that enemy really battle I'm Dave got one of my youngest daughter over the hospital they said what week that next one they said we thought she wasn't gonna make it I said I didn't think that shameless shameless devil you let my daughter go now here is a scripture and he said put me in remembrance of what I said and most of people don't even know what God said prayer works every time when when dr. Jung GIGO in his book goes over there he said what does he have past a friend of his and a passer and him before they went out to dinner or whatever he said Oh would you pray for her she said what she need prayer for well she's she she wants to get married and he said okay have you been praying for husband she said yeah he said well how long have you been praying she said well 10 years here's what his his reply was what have you been playing unheard of going over to going over to Luke after nineteen folks we've been letting the devil run off with our stuff and and this has got to stop I said Luke chapter 19 make it Luke chapter 18 please first one and he spake a parable unto them to the sin that men ought to always wot pray and what else and not faint saying there wasn't a city of judge which feared not God neither regarded man you know that was a devil and there was a widow in that city and she came unto him saying avenge me of my adversary and he would not for a while but afterward he said within himself though I fear not God know regarded man no regard man yet because this Widow trouble with me I will avenge her lest by her continual coming she's go weary me and the Lord said hear what the unjust judge said and shall not God avenge his own elect which cry what day and night unto him though he bear long with them I tell you that he will avenge them what speedily nevertheless when the Son of man cometh shall he find what faith on the earth it works by faith and he'll avenge him speedily but the Hagen talks about a time he prayed for his brother and so forth and so on and when he prayed just felt to release and that was it and they called him later on that week said hey now but whatever his name was you know he got saved here's what brother Hagin said I know it how did he know it because he what he pray come on say it he prayed because he prayed he knew it no surprise first John chapter 5 verse 14 still talking about petition prayer or could be applied to intercessory prayer this is the confidence that we have in him that if we ask anything according to his will what he hears us and if we know that he hear us whatever we ask we know that we one have the petition that we desired of him look over here look at John John chapter 11 folks we got to get serious about the gospel John chapter 11 verse 40 let's talk about that this is Jesus at the graveside of Nazareth okay and she Martha very kindly reminded him that the man's been dead for days he's naked verse 40 makes no difference next no difference makes no difference never too late for prayer and Jesus said it to her said I not unto thee that if thou wouldest believe thou shall see the glory of God and they took away the stone from the place where the Dead was lain and Jesus lifted up his eyes she said unto he said father I thank you that you have what heard me and I know that you hear me always now let me tell you something Jesus said the things that I did shall you do also no no here's what I'm thing he's showing his disciples how this works and it's not because he's in this earth as a son of God or son of mend as he said sometimes it's because he was under that covenant then God cannot break that covenant and that's what Jesus opera he was operating under the Old Covenant and he said father I thank you that you've heard me he's talking out loud now now Philippians again flip in chapter 4 and verse 6 and 7 and he said this be careful for nothing but in everything by prayer and supplication with Thanksgiving what with Thanksgiving leave the thanks off you might miss God eat them I'm telling you the rules you got it if you go by the rules this saying work every time today's life-changing series priority of breath is available in its entirety on CD or mp3 on DVD or mp4 to order in the US call 800 700 93 to 7 or contact us online at billwinston.org in Canada call eight four four two nine eight twenty nine hundred or contact us online at billwinston.org rafi and increase your brand line order the priority of Prayer bundle which includes the priority of Prayer three-part teaching series and dr.
