TYPES AND LEVELS OF PRAYER

From the biblical point of view, prayer can be

All these prayers are useful to believers de-
pending on their state of mind, situations being addressed, leading of the Spirit, etc. As
Christians, we must put our faith in the God

CATEGORIES OF PRAYER

Prayer can also be in categories. Casual
prayers are those regular prayers we pray
daily. These include the usual thanksgiving in
the morning, blessing the name of the Lord
(Ps.103:1-5), the prayer you pray when you
want to eat, travel etc.

A higher level is the prayer that control heavens (Josh 10:10-12). This is the kind of prayer you should be praying when age is dropping on you and you have not fulfilled your purpose.

Another category is the prayer that brings angels down to do your bidding (Dan.6:20-22; Acts 12:5-1. Another category is the prayer that can bring God Himself down (Dan. 3:16-17:24-25).

There is a kind of prayer that will cause you
to fly (Gen 32:24-28; Gen.33:1-6). Jacob
prayed and ‘flew’ from fear to peace, from
death to life and from rejection to acceptance.

He prayed and all of a sudden the storm in his life became permanently still. The kind of prayer that will cause you to fly is the kind of prayer that cannot wait till tomorrow.

If you have not surrendered your life to Jesus
Christ, please do so now urgently so that you
will be able to pray and God will hear you.
Ask Him to save your soul, promise Him you
will be committed to Him and Him alone.
Then, your prayers can attract heavenly
attention.

OPEN HEAVEN 6 NOVEMBER 2021 MEMORIZE: The LORD is my light and my salvation; whom shall I fear? the LORD is the strength of my life; of whom shall I be afraid? Psalms 27:1

OPEN HEAVEN 6 NOVEMBER 2021 BIBLE READING 1 SAMUEL 17:45-50

45. Then said David to the Philistine, Thou comest to me with a sword, and with a spear, and with a shield: but I come to thee in the name of the LORD of hosts, the God of the armies of Israel, whom thou hast defied.

46. This day will the LORD deliver thee into mine hand; and I will smite thee, and take thine head from thee; and I will give the carcasses of the host of the Philistines this day unto the fowls of the air, and to the wild beasts of the earth; that all the earth may know that there is a God in Israel.

47. And all this assembly shall know that the LORD saveth not with sword and spear: for the battle is the LORD’s, and he will give you into our hands.

48. And it came to pass, when the Philistine arose, and came, and drew nigh to meet David, that David hastened, and ran toward the army to meet the Philistine.

49. And David put his hand in his bag, and took thence a stone, and slang it, and smote the Philistine in his forehead, that the stone sunk into his forehead; and he fell upon his face to the earth.

50. So David prevailed over the Philistine with a sling and with a stone, and smote the Philistine, and slew him; but there was no sword in the hand of David.

OPEN HEAVEN 6 NOVEMBER 2021 MESSAGE

We have an enemy the devil, who is more dangerous than the likes of Goliath; however, the good news is that we also have Jehovah Nissi (the Lord our Banner) who would always give His children victory.

The Bible says that the devil, as a roaring lion walks about, seeking whom he may devour (1 Peter 5:8). This was exactly what Goliath did. He roared at the children of Israel and they trembled before him.

The children of Israel however, overcame their enemy through David God anointed. The enemy came, cursing David by the name of his gods and David countered him by declaring the Almightiness of Jehovah Nissi.

“This day will the Lord deliver thee into mine hand, and I will smite thee, and take thine head from thee; and I will give the carcases of the host of the Philistines this day unto the fowls of the air, and to the wild beasts of the earth; that all the earth may know that there is a God in Israel.” “1 Samuel 17:46”

The story in Exodus 17:8-16 also shows us clearly that battles of life are beyond the physical. The Israelites prevailed against the Amalekites as long as Moses’ hands were raised in prayers and worship to the Almighty God.

When Moses’ hands became heavy, God provided help through Aaron and Hur to hold his hands up until the Amalekites were completely conquered. Moses returned all the glory of the victory to God by raising an altar and naming it Jehovah Nissi to acknowledge that the Lord is the Banner over Israel.

We need God to be the Banner over us if we are to overcome in the battles of life, for we wrestle against unseen forces (Ephesians 6:12). We must, therefore, put on the whole armour of God (Ephesians 6:13-18) as we cannot win the battles of life with our senses or physical weapons.

When King Saul wanted to introduce a physical weapon to David, he rejected it because he knew the battle was the Lords. David went instead in the name of the Lord with an ordinary sling in his hands because the name of the Lord is a strong tower (Proverbs 18:10).

I encourage you to take hold of the name of the Lord as from today and you will subdue every giant that comes against you. However, you must have a cordial relationship with Jehovah Nissi by submitting to His lordship and living holy (Matthew 5:48).

OPEN HEAVEN 6 NOVEMBER 2021 PRAYER POINT

Father, I come against all the giants threatening my destiny and destroy them completely, in Jesus mighty name.

ROCK OF AGES CLEFT FOR ME

1. Rock of Ages, cleft for me,
Let me hide myself in Thee!
Let the water and the blood,
From Thy riven side which flowed,
Be of sin the double cure;
Cleanse me from its guilt and power.

2. Not the labours of my hands,
Can fulfill Thy law’s demands;
Could my zeal no respite know,
Could my tears for ever flow,
All for sin could not atone,
Thou must save and Thou alone.

3. Nothing in my hand I bring,
Simply to Thy cross I cling
Naked, come to Thee for dress,
Helpless, look to Thee for grace,
Foul, I to the fountain fly
Wash me, Saviour, or I die.

4. While I draw this fleeting breath,
When my eyelids close in death,
When I soar to worlds unknown,
See Thee on Thy judgement throne,
Rock of Ages, cleft for me,
Let me hide myself in Thee.

OPEN HEAVEN 7 NOVEMBER 2021 MEMORIZE: For verily I say unto you, That whosoever shall say unto this mountain, Be thou removed, and be thou cast into the sea; and shall not doubt in his heart, but shall believe that those things which he saith shall come to pass; he shall have whatsoever he saith. Mark 11:23

OPEN HEAVEN 7 NOVEMBER 2021 BIBLE READING JOB 22:23-30

23. If thou return to the Almighty, thou shalt be built up, thou shalt put away iniquity far from thy tabernacles.

24. Then shalt thou lay up gold as dust, and the gold of Ophir as the stones of the brooks.

25. Yea, the Almighty shall be thy defence, and thou shalt have plenty of silver.

26. For then shalt thou have thy delight in the Almighty, and shalt lift up thy face unto God.

27. Thou shalt make thy prayer unto him, and he shall hear thee, and thou shalt pay thy Vows.

28. Thou shalt also decree a thing, and it shall be established unto thee: and the light shall shine upon thy ways.

29. When men are cast down, then thou shalt say, There is lifting up; and he shall save the humble person.

30. He shall deliver the island of the innocent: and it is delivered by the pureness of thine hands.

OPEN HEAVEN 7 NOVEMBER 2021 MESSAGE

There are many types of prayers. Today, we shall be discussing the prayer of decrees because there is a level you would get to in spiritual warfare at which prayers of supplication or intercession may not be adequate.

Our Lord Jesus Christ in our memory verse today assures us that whatever we command shall obey us. In Mark 11:24, He also said: “Therefore I say unto you, What things soever ye desire, when ye pray, believe that ye receive them, and ye shall have them.”

A prayer of decree creates; it does not take No for an answer. More often, only those who walk intimately with God engage effectively in prayers of decrees.

The Bible says: “Thus saith the Lord, the Holy One of Israel, and his Maker, Ask me of things to come concerning my sons, and concerning the work of my hand’s command ye me.” “Isaiah 45:11”

In Ezekiel 37:1-28, Ezekiel prayed a prayer of decrees and the dry bones lived again. I decree that every mountain threatening the fullness of joy in your life is removed today, in Jesus name.

This is because it is written that whenever we say unto a mountain Be thou removed, and be thou cast into the sea, our words shall come to pass, according to our memory verse today.

Some years ago, a couple trusting God for the fruit of the womb came to us for prayers. When they disagreed about what sex the baby should be, we intervened by decreeing that they would have a set of twins – a boy and a girl.

They keyed into that prayer of decree and had a set of twins a boy and a girl. I decree that your expectations shall be fulfilled far beyond your imagination, in Jesus name.

For us to effectively engage in the prayer of decrees, however, we must abide in Christ and His words must abide in us (John 15:7).

This means you must be born again and live a life of total obedience unto God. If you had been born again but fell into sin, now is the time to repent and return to God.

Our Bible reading today summarises this message excellently; if you are on the side of God, you will declare a thing and it shall come to pass.

OPEN HEAVEN 7 NOVEMBER 2021 PRAYER POINT

My Father, I decree according to Your word: every mountain threatening my destiny is removed now, in Jesus name.

35. Jesus wept.

36. Then said the Jews, Behold how he loved him!

37. And some of them said, Could not this man, which opened the eyes of the blind, have caused that even this man should not have died?

38. Jesus therefore again groaning in himself cometh to the grave. It was a cave, and a stone lay upon it.

39. Jesus said, Take ye away the stone. Martha, the sister of him that was dead, saith unto him, Lord, by this time he stinketh: for he hath been dead four days.

40. Jesus saith unto her, Said I not unto thee, that, if thou wouldest believe, thou shouldest see the glory of God?

41. Then they took away the stone from the place where the dead was laid. And Jesus lifted up his eyes, and said, Father, I thank thee that thou hast heard me.

42. And I knew that thou hearest me always: but because of the people which stand by I said it, that they may believe that thou hast sent me.

43. And when he thus had spoken, he cried with a loud voice, Lazarus, come forth.

44. And he that was dead came forth, bound hand and foot with graveclothes: and his face was bound about with a napkin. Jesus saith unto them, Loose him, and let him go.

OPEN HEAVEN FOR TEENS 6 NOVEMBER 2021 MESSAGE

Women and girls generally are referred to as “weaker vessels” because we often respond to situations emotionally rather than tactically.

However, when I discovered the likes of women like Esther, Deborah, Hannah and Ruth in the Bible, I knew I must become different also. These women had reasons to excuse the unpleasant situations in their time and blame it on something or someone, but instead, rose up as warriors and took their destinies in their hands.

No one celebrates weakness; it’s okay to cry when life throws a bad situation at you but it’s not okay to remain in that state. Those who cannot control their emotions usually lack spiritual sight.

They see the world turning against them and easily tag anyone around them as enemies. You can have a drama-free life if you turn to the Lord today to build you up in the spirit because the spiritual controls the physical.

Your soul must be trained to observe both the spiritual and the physical. Stop referring to yourself as an emotional being. God has given us all emotions but He wants us to be in control of them.

Even Jesus wept in John 11:35 but thereafter, He raised His dead friend Lazarus. Emotions give you personality, they should never make you a weakling.

Father, please help me to respond appropriately to every situation life brings my way.

2. All to Jesus I surrender,

3. All to Jesus I surrender,
Lord, I give myself to Thee;
Fill me with Thy love and power,
Let Thy blessing fall on me.

Many people judge themselves periodically but judge others consistently. While they are mild on themselves and make excuses for their own actions, they are hard on others and make no room for them. It’s an act of wickedness when you judge others by their actions but judge yourself by your intention.

For instance, Lady A castigated lady B for forgetting her Bible at home during service, she said that lady B had become forgetful of the things of God and was now tilting towards worldliness.

But some days after, lady A got angry at a fellow church member to the point of exchanging slaps. Thus, between ladies A and B, who is actually worldly? Don’t be quick to judge others because God, the Ultimate Judge is watching you so that He can also use the same yardstick you have used for others to judge you (Matthew 7:2 ).

If you don’t give others a second chance, you may not get another chance yourself.

How precious did that Grace appear

And Grace will lead us home

OPEN HEAVEN 5 NOVEMBER 2021 FRIDAY

OPEN HEAVEN 5 NOVEMBER 2021 MEMORIZE: And Abraham called the name of that place Jehovah jireh: as it is said to this day, In the mount of the LORD it shall be seen. Genesis 22:14

OPEN HEAVEN 5 NOVEMBER 2021 BIBLE READING 1 KINGS 17:12-16

12. And she said, As the LORD thy God liveth, I have not a cake, but an handful of meal in a barrel, and a little oil in a cruse: and, behold, I am gathering two sticks, that I may go in and dress it for me and my son, that we may eat it, and die.

13. And Elijah said unto her, Fear not; go and do as thou hast said: but make me thereof a little cake first, and bring it unto me, and after make for thee and for thy son.

14. For thus saith the LORD God of Israel, The barrel of meal shall not waste, neither shall the cruse of oil fail, until the day that the LORD sendeth rain upon the earth.

15. And she went and did according to the saying of Elijah: and she, and he, and her house, did eat many days.

16. And the barrel of meal wasted not, neither did the cruse of oil fail, according to the word of the LORD, which he spake by Elijah.

OPEN HEAVEN 5 NOVEMBER 2021 MESSAGE

The name Jehovah Jireh means The Lord will provide. This means Gods provision is guaranteed. David described this truth in Psalm 23:1: “The Lord is my shepherd; shall not want.”

My prayer is that this will be your experience too, in Jesus name. Our God is more than able to meet all our needs. Even today, the Lord will miraculously meet those needs that may be about to put you to shame, in Jesus name.

David had multiple experiences of Gods provision and they reflect in his numerous Psalms. For example, he describes the Lord God as: “..A very present help in trouble.” “Psalm 46:1”

God is always on time. If the Present Help in trouble had not shown up on time for the widow of Zarephath, as seen in our Bible text today, the story would have been like that of the woman who killed her child for food in 2 Kings 6:25-29.

However, for Jehovah Jireh to come to your aid, you need to have the same spiritual conviction exhibited by the widow. One of her virtues is that she believed in the God of Prophet Elijah.

She knew that the God Elijah served is alive. She knew what He could do. She trusted in Him completely and was thus able to obey Elijahs instructions. Her obedience led to her receiving the blessing of multiplication.

The Bible says in 2 Chronicles 20:20 “..Believe in the Lord your God, so shall ye be established; believe his prophets, so shall ye prosper.”

Beloved, if we believe in this Great Provider, it will show in how we lead our lives. We would not doubt His promises and so would respond in faith to His directives.

We would not be cutting corners in order to achieve things in life because the Bible says ..Whosoever believeth on him shall not be ashamed (Romans 10:11). The God who provided for Abraham shall always be there for us.

The widow in our story today was a woman of faith who believed in the God of Israel. She demonstrated this clearly through her respect for the man of God.

Do you hold God in high esteem? If you do, it will show in how you treat your Pastor and the words of his mouth. May Jehovah Jireh be there for you always, in Jesus name.

OPEN HEAVEN 5 NOVEMBER 2021 PRAYER POINT

Father, You are the only One who can provide for all my needs. Please send help to me today, in the mighty name of Jesus.

OPEN HEAVEN 5 NOVEMBER 2021 HYMN

IN CHRIST ALONE MY HOPE IS FOUND

1. In Christ alone my hope is found
He is my light, my strength, my song
This Cornerstone, this solid ground
Firm through the fiercest drought and storm
What heights of love, what depths of peace
When fears are stilled, when strivings cease
My Comforter, my All in All
Here in the love of Christ I stand.

2. In Christ alone, who took on flesh
Fullness of God in helpless babe
This gift of love and righteousness
Scorned by the ones He came to save
‘Til on that cross as Jesus died
The wrath of God was satisfied
For every sin on Him was laid
Here in the death of Christ I live.
Bought with the precious blood of Christ.

3. There in the ground His body lay
Light of the world by darkness slain
Then bursting forth in glorious Day
Up from the grave He rose again
And as He stands in victory
Sin’s curse has lost its grip on me
For I am His and He is mine
Bought with the precious blood of Christ

4. No guilt in life, no fear in death
This is the power of Christ in me
From life’s first cry to final breath
Jesus commands my destiny
No power of hell, no scheme of man
Can ever pluck me from His hand
Till He returns or calls me home
Here, in the power of Christ, I stand.
