How To Have Your Prayers Answered-> Through the Power of the Holy Spirit
One of the key reasons why the Lord releases the power of the Holy Spirit to us is to
BELIEVE
The Key to moving in the Gifts of the Holy Spirit is Believing. It’s also the KEY to answered prayer.
Mark 9:23
“If you can believe, everything is possible for you”.
God gives and increases our power to believe
Phil 2:13
For God is working in you, giving you the desire and the power to do what pleases him.
Jesus said
Mark 9:23
“If you can believe”. “Everything is possible for him.
Matt 21:22
If you believe, you will receive whatever you ask for in prayer.“
Paul says
I pray that you would come to understand the incredible power that is available for those who (to) believe. It is the same release of His mighty power that raised Christ from the dead
I want us to look at one of my favorite portions of Scripture in order to make it yours
Phil 4:4-7
Rejoice in the Lord always. I will say it again: Rejoice! Let your gentleness be evident to all. The Lord is near. Do not be anxious about anything, but in everything, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God. And the peace of God, which transcends all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus.
Let me help you make this yours.
Rejoice means to
- Proclaim the Lord
- Announce His ability
- Declare Trust in Him
- Declare Victory
And it says to for us to underline it by saying to do it again
I will say it again: Rejoice!
Let your GENTLENESS be evident to all.

1Cor. 11:23-26
For I received from the Lord what I also passed on to you: The Lord Jesus, on the night he was betrayed, took bread, and when he had given thanks, he broke it and said, “This is my body, which is for you; do this to remember me
.” In the same way, after supper he took the cup, saying, “This cup is the new covenant in my blood; do this, whenever you drink it, in remembrance of me.” For whenever you eat this bread and drink this cup, you proclaim the Lord’s death until he comes. (servers)
The CUP-
