Prayer and Fasting Works

Heralding our Annual 21 Day Prayer and Fasting

Double portion greetings in Jesus precious name. Every prophecy more often than none delivers fully on spiritual warfare. As it is written;

“This Charge I commit unto thee, son Timothy, according to the prophecies which went before on thee, that thou by them mightest war a good warfare” – 1 Tim. 1:18

Why? One may ask. The bible says;

“Rise ye up, take your journey, and pass over the river Anon: behold I have given into thine hand Sinon the Amorite, king of Heshbon, and his land: begin to possess it, and content with him in battle” – Deut 2:24 (See also 1Cor 16:9)

But what are prophecies?

• Prophecies are the unfolding of divine agenda, divine program and divine purpose as it relates to an individual, organization, institution and what have you.
• It is revealing the end of a thing at the beginning (Ish 46:9-10)

How then do we make the most of a prayer and fasting adventure as we are about to embark upon again?

The scripture demands that the following prayer protocols be observed.

• Let’s come with a prepared heart to reach out to God – Pro 16:1, Jer 29:13, 1Sam 16:7, Jer 17:9-10 (Jer 30:21)
• Let’s come confessing and forsaking our sins – Ish 59:1-2, Ps 66:18, 1Jhn 1:9-11
• Let’s come thanking, praising and worshiping and hallowing His name – Ps 100:4, Matt 6:6-9
• Let’s come boldly and not beggerly – Heb 4:16, Prov 28:1, Act 14:3
• Let’s come with full assurance of faith – Heb 10:22-23, Jam 1:5-8
• Let’s come reminding God of his Word, which is His will for us – Ish 43:26, Ps 41:21, 1Jhn 5:14
• Let’s come to the father in the name of Jesus – Jhn 15:16, Jhn 14:12-14
• Let’s come praying in the Spirit – Rom 8:26, 1Cor 14:14-15
• Let’s come anxiety-free – Phil 4:6

Here comes again a lifetime opportunity for a change of story for every Winner.

Remember that:

• Jesus returned from the prayer and fasting mountain to blow the world open – Lk 4:1-37
• Jesus also returned from the prayer mountain transfigured – Lk 9:28-35, 43
• The disciples prayed and fasted and the Holy Ghost gave them clear instructions – Act 13:1-5
• All of Judah prayed and fasted and God took over their battle and they had supernatural victory over their enemies – 2Chr 20:3-24
• According to our Lord Jesus Christ, certain obstacles on our path may require the three-fold forces of Faith, Prayer and Fasting to clear them off – Matt 17:19-21, Eph 6:16, Mk 11: 23-24
• It is scripturally proven that no one can experience full delivery of prophetic agenda without engaging the combined forces of Faith, Prayer and Fasting – Jam 1:6-8, 1Cor 16:9, Deut 2:24
• Remember it is written, “The Lord of host has sworn, saying, Surely as I have thought, so shall it come to pass; and as I have purposed, so it shall stand” – Ish 14:24
• Therefore, we must engage in spiritual warfare to see prophecies fully fulfilled – 1Tim 1:18
• This is why I believe the Holy Ghost instructed the annual 21 Day Prayer and Fasting in this commission – Rom 8:14
• Double Portion 2013 must not be reduced to a slogan in your life because it is a divine agenda – Amos 3:7
• It must not be made to appear a church accolade because it is actually a divine mandate – Ish 14:27

We are all admonished to participate heartily in the forthcoming 21 days of prayer and fasting expecting to receive from heaven a full delivery of our double portion package ordained for the year 2013.

This is what informs the prophetic agenda for January 2013
