PRAYER A Kingdom Lifestyle
Prayer |
We do not pray just because there is a crisis or a need. We are faith motivated, Word motivated,
not need motivated. Our life in Christ is directed, governed and mentored by the Word,not by
circumstances of life. We live by responding to the Word. Our opening Scripture shows us a
parable the Lord Jesus told His disciples to the end that men ought always to pray, and not to
faint. The Lord uses the expression "... men ought always to pray, and not to faint." Hence we are
meant to pray always, without ceasing (1 Thessalonians 5:17). Prayer is a Kingdom lifestyle; it is
life to us. We live this way. Prayer is not an addendum to the Christian life. It is the life we have
been called to live. We are a royal priesthood in Christ; we are priests ministering with the High
Priest, Christ Jesus, in things pertaining to God. Praying is a life of the priest.
For the kingdom man, prayer is not a religious exercise. Prayer should not be done as a religious
thing;that will not produce any results at all. Prayer for a kingdom person is a dialogue with God.
We pray to a living God who is able to save to the uttermost those who come to Him by Christ

In the Name of Jesus, I declare that I am given to prayer: not to
weariness. I declare that I am fervent in spirit and not slothful. I am
a citizen of the kingdom of God,therefore prayer is my lifestyle.
