PRAYER: The Key to Destiny Stepsنموونە

ASSUMING THE PRAYER POSTURE OF AN HEIR

Has fear ever held you back from experiencing the incredible promises that God has prepared for your future? Do you struggle with feelings of unworthiness, and has this affected your prayer posture? If you answered yes, you're not alone, and today is the day to break free from these limitations. So, how can we approach prayer with the confidence of an heir rather than the insecurity of an orphan? I firmly believe it begins with affirming who we are and "whose" we are. When we lack the assurance that we belong to God and that He has a preordained plan for us, we allow a settling spirit to take root.

Recognizing our true identity in Christ is a foundational truth that supports our value as believers. There is nothing like knowing "who" you belong to and "what" belongs to you. I spent many years praying aimlessly, adopting the wrong posture, and settling for less than my spiritual inheritance. Why did I do this? It was because I failed to comprehend the spiritual importance of my words and how they flowed from my mouth.

When we devalue ourselves and lack awareness of our true identity, we often find ourselves content with less than God's very best. We then pray without the faith that pleases Him. We must be mindful of our prayer posture when presenting requests to God. That revelation alone transformed the way I approached God and declared His Word. It marked the moment of a significant shift in my prayer posture. I was no longer standing before God as an unworthy beggar. I stood before Him as an heir with a spirit of expectation. Our prayer posture reflects our faith, and without faith, it is impossible to please God. He promises to withhold "NO good thing" from us.
