Hello 1nebody,

Prayer is always a hot topic for our Christian journey and an essential part of our faith, growth, and relationship with the Father. This message by Apostle Selman lays the foundation of a flourishing Christian life on a consistent prayer life. He explained further that we must build a system to maintain that consistent praying life and not let our emotions take the lead because the power of prayer lies in consistency.
This video is a short section of a longer sermon by Apostle Selman which I’m still looking for on YouTube. Please, drop it in the comment section if you do find it.
According to the Apostle, there are 4 assignments of prayer that we must be aware of and utilise.
- For growth and transformation: Prayer is a tool for your personal growth and transformations. He stressed that it is paramount that you spend a major part of your prayer time praying in the Spirit. This is where consistency in prayer is key. “As he was praying, the appearance of his face changed, and his clothes became as bright as a flash of lightning.” – Luke 9:29 NIV.
- Prayer is a platform for obtaining requests and making petitions. This is what most of us use prayer for if we are being sincere. “Therefore I tell you, whatever you ask for in prayer, believe that you have received it, and it will be yours.” – Mark 24:11 NIV.
- Prayer is a tool for creating your reality: This is where praying the scripture and prophesying are vital. Apostle Selman so you are a co-creator with God and he said something profound from Ezekiel 37, the account of Ezekiel commanding the dry bones to rise. Apostle pointed out that the bones did rise when the angel was speaking until Ezekiel yielded and prophesied as he was instructed. It was when he did this the bones came to life Ezekiel 37:7. This is when you use your prayer to declare God’s promises from His Word. God does not honour what he has not said.
- Warfare and Prophetic Intercession: His definition of warfare is establishing the Word of God over life destinies and territories. He says warfare is not just about fighting but making manifest the realities that have already been concluded by God.
I pray this blesses you and helps you in your personal walk with God. Watch it, soak it in, and apply every divine lesson in this short video.
God bless,
Dasola
