Hey Guys!
The fast has officially begun and I’d like to share with y’all how I pray. Usually, when an issue bothers me, I get scriptures concerning that issue ( Could be up to 20), and then I pray those scriptures. I pray them and confess them. Fasting is also in the mix, as well as worship.
As I confess them, I personalise them, confessing in past tense.
I usually start with scriptures that have to do with the leading of the Holy Spirit, so that God can lead me on how to pray:
E.g.
1. Romans 8: 14 Those who are led by the spirit of God, they are the mature sons of God
Personalising and past tense:
I was led by the Spirit of God concerning so and so issue. I was a mature son of God
2. Isaiah 30:21 And thine ears shall hear a word behind thee, saying, This is the way, walk ye in it, when ye turn to the right hand, and when ye turn to the left
Personalising and past tense:
Concerning so and so issue, my ears heard a voice behind me saying “This is the way, walk in it”
When I’m not even clear on what the issue is, or when I wake up with a nagging feeling, I pray to God to reveal whatever mystery lies therein.
E.g.
1. Jeremiah 33: 3 Call to me and I will answer you and tell you great and unsearchable things you do not know.
Personalising and past tense:
