PRAYER MEANS FELLOWSHIP WITH THE FATHER

[Margaret Wright]

                        PRAYER  MEANS  FELLOWSHIP  WITH  THE  FATHER

 

To have fellowship with the Father we must know that our sins have been remitted and God has nothing against us.  All that was against us were nailed to the cross of Jesus and He paid the penalty for sin and Jesus shed His Holy Blood to cleanse and  make whiter than the snow.  Redemption is a blessed fact and we are now made righteous with the righteousness of our Lord Jesus Christ.  We have been accepted into the family of God.  We have been restored to fellowship as God’s recreated children. Instead of sin-consciousness, we stand complete in Him and enjoy His fellowship.. FELLOWSHIP THAT WAS LOST HAS BEEN RCOVERED!!

 

We are no longer fearful and uncertain of our standing before the Father as Jesus Christ has reconciled us to God and so we have peace with God. We rest confidently in His wonderful salvation.  OUR PEACE WITH GOD HAS BEEN RESTORED!!

 

We no longer need to wander in confusion and make wrong decisions for the Lord has become our Shepherd and He will guide in life.  He has become our wisdom and He takes over the care of us.  WE HAVE A SHEHERD TO TAKE CARE OF US!

 

We are no longer dominated by sickness for Jesus Christ bore our sicknesses so that we were healed by His stripes.  He is our Physician and our Healer and our Life.

OUR HEALTH HAS BEEN RENEWED!

 

We no longer need to live in poverty and want for our God is our Source of supply. He blesses and prospers the work of our hands. All the riches of the family belong to every member of the family. Curses have been removed for Jesus has borne our curse for us.  OUR PROSPERITY HAS BEEN REGAINED!

 

We need never be lonely or feel lost for the Lord has promised never to leave us nor forsake us.  Our Lord Jesus Christ and His Father dwell in us and so we are assured of His Presence at all times.  OUR FRIENDSHIP HAS BEEN RESUMED!

 

We are no longer defeated in life’s battle for the Lord has defeated the enemy and He causes us to triumph always.  We are winners. 

OUR VICTORY HAS BEEN RETRIEVED!

 

As we count our blessings and provisions through the sacrifice of our Lord Jesus Christ, we praise Him and worship Him for loving us so. 

These truths establish us in the faith and we shall not be moved for we will be rooted and grounded in the Word of God.

Prayer now will be different.  No more pleading with God or begging God to bless us  for His Word tells us that He has blessed us with all spiritual blessings IN Christ.  We do not have to ask Him for healing for He has healed us through the stripes that Jesus bore – we believe this truth and confess it and praise Him for this provision.   We do not pray for power for He said we received power when we are baptized in the  Holy Ghost.  We praise Him and thank Him for we believe His Word. Our communion with the Father as His children is real. His eyes are upon us and His ears are open unto our cry.. 

All our requests and desires must harmonize with His plans.
