Praying God's Word
Would you like your prayers to be more powerful? Pray the Scriptures. Hebrews 4:12 says that God's Word is alive and powerful, sharper than a two edged
sword. When we speak and pray the Scriptures, we are coming into agreement with God, and His power is released to answer our prayers. Maybe you feel like God doesn't hear your prayers? Or maybe you don't know what to pray for in certain situations. Not only does He hear our prayers, but He also promises to answer them when we pray in line with His will. He hastens to perform His Word.
Benefits of Praying the Scriptures
Praying the Scriptures will increase your spiritual growth. You actually learn what God says about certain situations, and by praying His Word you will see His results. Many people have testified that just by praying the healing scriptures they have been healed, physically as well as mentally. You can live a stress free life if you will only just pray because when you pray, you are turning the situation over to God. You're taking the situation out of your hands, and putting it in His hands. You're releasing it to God. Scripture prayers are very easy to read, and if you'll read them every day, even within a week, you will have memorized Scripture and won't even realize it until a situation arises, or until someone asks you to pray for them.
Commitment to Pray the Scriptures
Most people when they hear the word commitment, their first response is, "I don't have time for another commitment." But if you want your circumstances in your life to change you need to make a commitment to pray the Scriptures out loud everyday. Then you will see how praying with the powerful force of God's Word will cause you to be praying in victory. You will have victory in your life, in your home, and be able to handle situations as easily as Jesus would have handled them.
