CONTINUAL PRAYER GIVES VICTORY OVER THE ENEMY

God bless you for taking the time to study.

TOPIC: CONTINUAL PRAYER GIVES VICTORY OVER THE ENEMY

TEXT: LUKE 18:2-5 

THURSDAY FEBRUARY 9th 

Key verse: “I tell you that He will answer them speedily. Nevertheless, when the son of man cometh, shall He find faith on the earth? (Luke 18:8). 
Here is prayer warfare against your enemies, the devil, and the forces of darkness contending with you. The power you are contending with may be strong. Like this widow, the Bible says the judge was wicked. He did not fear God, and neither did he regard man. Who then would move him? Here was this widow, a helpless woman. The widow came to him and said, “My opponent is taking away my property. Please judge the case between me and my opponent and give me back my property.” But this judge was so wicked that he did not respect the widow. He did not pity the widow. But there was one weapon that the widow used, which the Lord revealed to be very powerful and effective against the enemy. That weapon is continual praying, continual calling upon God, and continual coming to God in prayer. It is importunity in prayer! 
Each time that widow came pleading for justice, there was an impression in that wicked judge. There was a kind of resisting force; an evil attitude from the man against her. Each time that widow came, she stood helpless and weak. But she kept coming all the same. She was not discouraged but kept coming and this weighed down on the wicked man. Although the man was resisting, his resistance died with time. His resistance faded with time and he had to give up and bow to the pressure. Eventually, he said, “I am dying, I had better settle this matter for I am made restless by this weapon of continual coming.” The Lord is saying, no matter how powerful those demonic forces are, keep on praying, keep on calling on the Name of Jesus, and keep on reciting the scriptures. Every time you pray, you release a great force and attack the enemy. Every time you say something, pray or quote God’s promises, sing a song, and manifest your faith against the devil, you are releasing a great force against him and he will eventually bow to your superior power. That is the truth: by continually praying, you can overcome a strong enemy. Why should you strike once and run? No, keep on bombarding the enemy until he gives way for you!

Thought for the day: Pray until the answer comes

Song for the day: Pray until something happens

Bible reading for the day: Leviticus 7-9; Matthew 25:31-46

For taking your time to study remain blessed. UNDERSTANDING ETERNITY WEDNESDAY MAY 10 TEXT: Psalm 90: 1 - 2 Key Verse: “The Lord is King forever and ever: the heathen are perished out of his land Psalm 10:16 People that understand eternity are always careful. Eternity means forever and ever, it means ever-lasting, ever-living, never dying. Trillion upon trillion years, eternity is still on, in fact it is life without end. There are two extreme ends of eternity: The kingdom of God called third heaven where God the Father, God the son, God the Holy Ghost, twenty-four elders, saints of God that make heaven, holy angels of God, and entire host of heaven dwell now presently; Hell-fire, where Satan, demons, and sinners that have died in their sins are presently kept. God is the One that introduced eternity. He lives forever. It is not a choice, the One who created us is forever, hence you will live forever, but what matters is where you will live eternally. Remove God from the way, then t...

Pastor Paul Rika’s Burden, Vision and Action To Reach the Unreached (2)

God's blessings will continually accompany you for dedicating time to your studies. Pastor Paul Rika’s Burden, Vision and Action To Reach the Unreached (2) Wednesday 15th October TEXT: Titus 3: 3-6   Key verse: Titus 3: 6 “Which He shed on us abundantly through Jesus Christ our Savior.” I remember I was in Sao Tome and Principe as a deeper life national overseer and I was writing the book, “Divine Revelation of God’s Holiness and Judgment.” The vision the Lord gave to Michael Sambo. I was translating it into a book, with the scriptural backups to make it a sound evangelistic book. I saw that truly the world is doomed. What will I say about those who have not known Jesus among the 7 billion people on earth; those who do not even have anything to do with Him? Do I speak of the billions in Asia without understanding of Jesus? Out of the 1.4 billion in India, they are struggling to record 150 million Christians including Catholics.  Who knows Jesus then? Even among Pentecosta...
