Prayers God our Father will anwer (be still and listen)
The following prayers are not to be taken lightly, nor are they to be seen as some kind of mystical formula. These prayers are only to be prayed by those who are the disciples of Yeshua. These are simple prayers that will change our lives as long was we understand that we must be completely submitted to the Will of our Holy Father as we pray in the Name of his only begotten son Yeshua.
Why these prayers?
If you observe the prayers, you will see that they are based on the prayer Yeshua taught us to pray, or better known as the “Lord’s prayer”, and other passages of the Scriptures. These prayers are written to help the disciple of Yeshua grow in prayer and fasting, and most of all, learning how to be swift to hear, slow to speak, slow to wrath.
Prayer is communion with our Father and His Messiah, Yeshua. Prayer needs to be part of the disciple’s life, like the air that you breathe. Scripture tells us that when we wake up and when we lay our head on the pillow at night, we are to keep the word of God on our lips and we are to speak it to each other; prayer is one way this is accomplished.
This is the part where discipleship is lived
These prayers are what some call “dangerous” prayers because we are going to be asking our Holy Father to basically tune us up . We get beat up in battle, so we need to step into our closet, or go up that mountain to pray, ask, seek, knock on Father’s door. Life ain’t no joke, and we need to see the valleys of our lives as the place where Father is preparing us for the climb to the top of our next mountain. A very godly woman said “the valley is where we turn trials into testimonies, strife into song, and pain into praise…” and she couldn’t have put it any better.
The valley is where we learn to pray, we learn to nurture the fruits of the spirit, and mature just a little bit more. We are promised tribulation in this life, and the valley (tribulation) is where we prepare to move into the real war…climbing the mountain, and prayer is your means to get it done in Yeshua!
With each prayer you will see “(be still and listen)”. This is based on James 1:19-20 “Wherefore, my beloved brethren, let every man be swift to hear, slow to speak, slow to wrath: for the wrath of man worketh not the righteousness of God.”
Taking the time to be still and know that he is God, is how we silence the noise of our carnal minds. Remember, we are being formed into the image of Christ and this is done mostly through tribulation. Life is hard, people are jerks, and the price of gas in California is an abomination, yet those who are in Yeshua know what it means to wait upon the Lord. Pray is where the real battles are won, and the enemy is made to flee. Resist the devil and he will FLEE from you.
The Prayer of cleansing (be still and listen)
Dear Heavenly Father, search me and know my heart. Point out anything that offends you and cleanse me of it.
The Prayer of surrender (be still and listen)
Holy Father, reveal to me what holds my mind hostage. Show me what I fear the most. Bring to light all the areas that I trust you the least, and help me to walk by faith when I face what scares me; for you did not give us a spirit of fear, but of power, and of love, and of sound mind.
The Prayer of His will (be still and listen)
Not my will be done, Father, but your will be done in my life.
The Prayer of Pruning (be still and listen)
Holy Father, prune me. Break off every dead branch in my life that is not producing fruit. Anything and anyone that is taking me away from you, remove it immediately and completely.
The Prayer of relationships (be still and listen)
Heavenly Father, you said that we are to love one another, Help me in my relationships, help me to grow in wisdom, holiness, and empathy in the relationships that glorify you, the courage to end relationships that are unrighteous (lawless). Teach me to have discernment, and always to be a peacemaker, poor in spirit, meek in mind and heart; I will learn of Yeshua, for he is lowly in spirit, and meek in heart.
In the name of Yeshua haMashiach! Amen!
Ecclesiates 3:11 “He hath made everything beautiful in His time…”
Beautiful comes from God our Father, and when we let our Holy Father do things in His time, all we get is B E A U T Y !
