Wild Prayers

DAY 1 OF 14

WELCOME ABOARD

I have always been intrigued by Elijah. The Bible points to us that Elijah was a man who was just like us. Yet, his larger-than-life example points to us that our prayers have to be wild and audacious. Elijah’s prayer was beyond his personal needs. The sphere of influence of his prayers extended to the entire nation of Israel. His prayers became a doorway of prosperity not just to his life but to his entire nation.

What are wild prayers? Prayers that give earthly license for heavenly interference to accomplish the unimaginable and the unprecedented. Many times, we are tempted to only take prayer requests that have a precedent in history of being answered. We ask God for the same miracle that has happened in the life of another person. But God waits to propel our situations into ground-breaking, history-making miracles if we have the faith to ask for that which is infinitely above and beyond human reach.

What can we pray about? Everything. A problem that is not prayed about, is a pain that has not been attended to. Prayer is not just talking to God about our needs. We can tell God about everything - our sins, fears, addictions, that deep dirty secret that we have hidden in the very depths of our being and those embarrassing situations.

When can we pray? Prayer is talking to God about everything. We can keep telling him about all that is happening in our lives, as it happens. The Bible exhorts us to talk to him incessantly like we would talk to a friend. Instead of taking our problems to people, the police, the bar, the court – we’ve got to take it to God.

Struggling with your prayer life? Do you feel an overwhelming cloud of distraction every time you sit in prayer? If that’s the case, this 14-day journey is for you. As you allow the Holy Spirit to minister to you through this devotional series, you will emerge as a stronger and more powerful prayer warrior at the end of this journey.

Reflection time:

1. Write down those problems, addictions and sins that seem too big for you to handle.

2. What are the faith blockers? List the questions, thoughts and fears that arise in your heart and mind as you pray.

3. List the distractors that sidetrack your mind as you pray.

Have a little chat about all that you have written down with God.
