The Power of Face to face Prayer

Image
 I began to discover such power coming forth from my inner man through this journey into adoration and devotion prayer. This type of prayer, adoring and magnifying the Lord began to release oil for my weariness and it opened the door for the rain of the Spirit, which came to refresh, restore and to anoint my body, soul and spirit.  In this place of the rain, I became soaked in the presence of God and soaked in His promises for me.This is the power of adoration! When we abide in this place of devotion to the Lord, we become Adoration Pillars, those who have been rained on and can rain on others.  We become so soaked in the rain of God that we become aromas and Presence Carriers of Him. The Hope Room is all about the rain! As we magnify and adore the Lord, He sends His rain of refreshment over us! Adoration washes over others and brings healing and refreshment as we adore and magnify who God is over others. ...  Adoration and Prayer Book - Bob Hartley   →  Bi...

Scriptures about Adoration and Magnifying the Lord

Image
1. Psalm 22:3 - „Yet You are holy, O You who are enthroned upon the praises of Israel." The Lord sits enthroned on our praises! As we come into agreement with His Kingship, we release His power and authority in the earth realm! He has given authority of the earth to the sons of man, and we have the great privilege to usher in His dominion through our worship and agreement with Him. 2. Psalm 69:30-31 „I will praise the name of God with song and magnify Him with thanksgiving. And it will please the LORD better than an ox or a young bull with horns and hoofs” .  God desires our affection first and foremost, the first commandment is to love the Lord our God with all of our heart, mind, soul and strength! This is more important than our sacrifices or what we can do for Him. He is after our love! 3. Revelation 7:12 „Amen, blessing and glory and wisdom and thanksgiving and honor and power and might, {be} to our God forever and ever. Amen.” Adoration is the pattern we see in heaven! The L...

In Jesus' name 2

Image
(From the testimonies of Emil Nigg's life.)    - "Colonel, I have the impression that your love for Jesus Christ was much deeper than ours." Was this the case at the beginning of your career?  - I have nothing to add to this. I may have needed the Savior more than others. At the beginning of my Salvation Army officer career, I had a foreman who became my role model. Even now, I see him, praying very seriously, leaning on his knees. His prayers and his love for Jesus had a great impact on me, the beginner. On our simple meals, a third chair was also set up, as a symbol, for Him Who We Worshiped: "Come, Lord Jesus, be our guest!" The flowers on the table were also in His honor.  -"Has your faith been so humble, so childlike, and perfect from the beginning?"  - No, because I also tried to achieve things on my own, even the closeness of God and His special blessing. A small example. As an officer student, I spent a night outside in the garden on an ...

In Jesus' name 1

 In Jesus' name  (from the testimonies of Emil Nigg's life) ...  "What did the doctors say about these amazing twists?" "I remember a woman who came to me in great pain." She had a big tumor in her breast and was waiting for help from Jesus, the Great Doctor. I prayed and placed my hands on Jesus’Name. The Lord's response was not missed. The pain was gone, the tumor was back. She waited until only a small lump appeared to testify to his doctor of the healing power of Jesus. As soon as she showed herself to the doctor, he could barely understand what had happened, that only a small lump was visible, and that his patient was in no pain. The woman told him that it was all done through prayer. The doctor's face shone and he acknowledged, that it was his great joy, that he had experienced such a thing that "a woman had found a cure through her prayer."  - Doctor, was it cancer? she asked. "Yes, it was, at an advanced stage." The...

Reciprocity

Image
­ study in the Chapterhouse mutual faith and relationships in the Church The New Testament nurtures the talents helping everyone's personality and values. Unlike the religious, believers are immersed in the study of God's word & revelations. This is a spiritual work: a high degree of interdependence or reciprocity. Yes. It requires reciprocity and investment of time. Reciprocity is a real challenge, an uncharted territory nowadays. As Tim Maton ( Everyday Church, Wimbledon ) wisely commented: "There are 59 specific "one another" instructions in the Bible about how we're to relate to one another within the church community. The phrase "one another" is derived from the Greek word allelon [al-el-on] which means to " one another, each other; mutually, reciprocally ." As well as loving, caring, serving, building up, honouring, accepting, comforting, encouraging, and praying for one another, is the command to ...
