1. Do not joke with your quiet time.
You must plan to have a quiet time with the Lord daily and regularly, it isthe time when you will pray meaningfully, study and memorise the word of God diligently. The Bible says that Daniel prayed three times a day. You too can. You can however choose the very early hours of the morning when every where is quiet. You must plan to follow. You should also decree the word of God throughout the day from time to time.
2. Do not neglect the fellowship of the saints.
Do not be the Christian who misses services. Do not make this year a yearwhen you only attend church serviceswhen there are special programmes. Have a consistent attendance of God抯 fellowship.
3. Always hunger and thirst for God.
Live a clean and yielded life and always seek the things of the Lord. God is by your side; there is no distance between you and Him and He is always ready to listen to you and hear your pleas. Worship Him in spirit and in truth; go before Him the way He wants you to.
4. Follow a consistent programme of prayer.
5. Learn to be intimate with the Holy Spirit.
Treat Him as a Person reverently, not as a thing. Learn to meet Him and commune with Him every day.
6. Pray that He should show you His way.
When the fire of God抯 presence is with you, it will melt away every wickedness around you, the way a flame will melt a candle. The little time you spend in His presence, and when His presence is upon you, will clear away every confusion from your mind. No matter how confused and confusing a situation is, the presence of God will bring order into that situation. As Christians, we should carry His fire about anywhere we go.
The Jews wanted to stone Jesus and He asked them why. They said it was because He was equating Himself with God. He then asked If they had not read the scriptures, where it is said that: 揑 say ye are Gods?�
None of them could answer. We are supposed to be little Jesus wherever we are, carrying the fire of God about. When you have the fire of God in your life, your presence in a particular situation can make the difference. God can command a situation to change, just because of a child of His.
I am proposing some prayer point to you now, which I would advise that you pray with all your heart, so that the reading of this message will be meaningful. As you pray them, the power of God will move in your life in an awesome manner. Pray them with concentration and with determination to feel the presence ofGod in your life.
ONE THING YOU MUST DO
However, beloved, if you have not yet surrendered your life to the Lord Jesus, the prayers might not make a difference to you, whereas, I would like you to benefit from them. Oim to forgive you your sins and cleanse you from all unrighteousness. Name them one after the other and tell Him that you will never go back to them again. Claim the redemptive powerin the blood of Jesus that was shed on the cross at Calvary because of your sins. Promise Him that you will never go back to the world anymore.
I congratulate you on this decision that you have just taken. I pray that it shall be permanent in your live. I pray that the Lord will uphold you with His right hand of righteousness. He will not allow you to fall but standsteadfast in His word. I pray that you will have a personal encounter with the Lord and I assure you that you will never be the same again.
Now, I want you to begin to soak thewhole of this year in the blood of Jesus. Declare that no weapon that enemy has formed against you shall prosper and any power that does notwant you to have peace this year, shall be buried today and God shall restore all your breakthroughs that the enemy has stolen away from you to you. There shall be a complete overthrow and any power that does not want you to move forward shall be arrested and summarily dealt with.
Today, you have a wonderful opportunity before the Lord. Cry untoHim wholeheartedly and He will answer and do great and mighty things in your life. First, ask Him to cleanse you from every filthiness thatcould cause a hindrance to the answers to your prayers.
