This is why Kingdom Advancement Prayer is an area of spiritual stewardship that the Church of Christ needs to begin to emphasize today (Luke 2:37, Matthew 6:6, 9-10). The reason being that, of all spiritual endeavors, praying Kingdom Advancement prayers is the most rewarding, because it is one thing to do to commit God to continue to add to us all other things that others are dying to get (Matthew 6:33, 1 Kings 3:3-13, Nehemiah 1:1-10, Nehemiah 5:14).
The bible teaches that men ought always to pray, and not to faint (Luke 18:1, Galatians 6:7-9). This is why everyone of us must endeavor to maintain an effectual prayer life in advancing the Kingdom as a lifestyle (Leviticus 6:12-13, Matthew 6:9-10).
Furthermore, we should all understand that:
- As long as the Kingdom of God must keep advancing, the prayer tempo of the Church must be on the rise (Matthew 16:18, Matthew 6:33);
- As long as the Church must continue to grow, prayer must continue (Act 6:4-7);
- As long as unsaved souls remain on our streets, intercessory prayers for their salvation must continue (1 Timothy 2:1-4);
- As long as the wicked are still holding some believers in captivity, prayer must continue for their release (Philippians 1:19, Act 12:5-11);
- As long as believers are in need of breakthroughs in any area of life, prayer must continue on their behalf (Galatians 6:2, Ephesians 6:18)
But we must understand that it is not just prayer that works, but the prayer of faith (James 1:6-7).
However, Operation Prayer for Life is without prejudice to the Soul Winning Mandate handed down by Christ to all believers, but rather, is a platform that will:
- Empower our soul winning endeavors for delivery (John 15:16, 2 Corinthians 5:19-20);
- Ensure the establishment of all our new converts in the Faith and in this Church (Colossians 4:12);
- Keep the Church on the path of continuous and unending growth (Act 2:46-47, Act 6:4-7).
In conclusion, after the order of Obed-Edom, every engaging member of this Church should expect dramatic turnaround every three months, as we continue to play host to this Ark of Revival, by praying kingdom advancement prayers (2 Samuel 6:11-12).
Furthermore, every Winner is required to pray for minimum one hour per day, either during the day or in the night, at each one’s convenience. This could either be at a stretch or in 2 segments of 30 minutes each (Isaiah 66:7-8).
We understand from scriptures that every praying Church continues to command enviable and crowd pulling testimonies in the lives of all engaging individuals (Zechariah 8:20-23).
Therefore, as we put this revelation to work within the next three months of this Operation, that is, between 17th July and 15th October, 2017, every engaging Winner should expect a supernatural order of turnaround in return for our tireless engagement on the altar prayer.
Remember always that God is not looking for who to use, but who to bless and God who sees our commitment in secret has vowed to bless us openly. Our case as individuals must indeed be different in all areas of life this year.
Jesus is Lord!
