“Therefore, I say to you whatever things you ask when you pray, believe you receive them and you shall have them.” (Mark 11:24)
COMMENT: I have been told – and I think it’s sound advice – that when I have a need I should find a Scripture that corresponds with that need and use it in prayer. For instance, if there is sickness in my body, part of my prayer might go like this: “Heavenly Father, in 1 Peter 2:24 You said that by the stripes of Your Son Jesus I am healed. So based on Your Word, in the name of Jesus, I ask for healing in my body now.” After that prayer, I’m not going to get my friend on the phone and lament over how sick I am. What I will tell him is that I have received healing in my body according to our Lead Scripture. Furthermore, as I get ready for work and throughout the day, I will orally declare that I am healed. (I have to fight my flesh because it wants to tell me that I am lying, but I know that I am scriptually correct.) The more I confess that promise of God about myself, the stronger my faith grows (Romans 10:17); and it is just a matter of time before that which is already manifested in the spirit realm will make it’s appearance in the natural. PRAISE GOD!
SCRIPTURE STUDY: Proverbs 12:14, Job 22:28 and Mark 11:23
WISE SAYING: WE NOT ONLY CLAIM IT, BUT WE ALSO OBTAIN IT.
