TL_110_Why Does God Ask Us To Pray To Him? 5
Posted on May 29, 2011 | No CommentsB. UNDERSTANDING INTERCESSION Intercession is prayer which flows out of relationship and fellowship with our Heavenly Father. From our “conversations” with Him, we find out (discover) His will. As we fellowship with God, we come to know what He wants (His will). 1. Laborers Together With God Intercession is asking or inviting God to do what we find out (discover) He wants to do on earth. In this way we become “laborers together with God” (1 Cor 3:9). Prayer based on a knowledge of what God desires is described... -

Posted on May 22, 2011 | No CommentsA. UNDERSTANDING MAN’S DOMINION 3. Jesus Bought Back Man’s Dominion Part 2 Jesus Restored Dominion To Man. The devil’s dominion was finally broken by Christ’s triumph over death- on the cross and in the realm of death, Hell (Hades). It was God’s original intent and purpose that man should have dominion over the earth. This could only be if Jesus came and conquered. Then He could say on His resurrection day, “..All power [dominion] is given unto me in heaven and in earth… and, low, I am with you... -

Posted on May 15, 2011 | No CommentsA. UNDERSTANDING MAN’S DOMINION 3. Jesus Bought Back Man’s Dominion Part 1 Man fell from his calling, and the scepter of dominion slipped from his hand. Satan took it and held it until Christ came. Christ would redeem (buy back) that which man had surrendered to Satan. He did this by coming into this world as the Son of MAN. Hebrews 2:14-16 confirms this. He came not only as the Son of God, but also as the Son of Man. There is an important reason for this, as... -

Posted on May 8, 2011 | No CommentsA. UNDERSTANDING MAN’S DOMINION 2. Man Lost Dominion To Satan We know from Genesis 3 that Satan came into the Garden of Eden and, through deceiving Eve, gained access to Adam. “..Adam was not deceived…” (1 Tim 2:14). Adam chose to eat of the forbidden fruit and “…by one man sin entered into the world, and death by sin; and so death passed upon all men… death reigned [Greek= basileuo, to rule as king]…death ruled as king by one…” (Rom 5:12,14,17). That one by whom death reigned... -
TL_106_Why Does God Ask Us To Pray To Him? 1
Posted on May 1, 2011 | No CommentsA. UNDERSTANDING MAN’S DOMINION For some years, I found it very difficult to understand why the Lord invited and commanded me to pray. Why did we have to pray? God is God, so why doesn’t He just do what He wants? Why are we even in the picture? why are the events on earth related to our prayers at all? I knew that prayer worked because I saw the effects of my prayers in my everyday life. However, I didn’t know why God wanted to involve me in... -

Posted on April 23, 2011 | No CommentsChapter 7 – Countries And Nations A. INTERCESSION FOR THE NATIONS “Ask and I will give you the nations for your inheritance [birth right], and the farthest parts of the earth for your possession” (Ps 2:8). The Lord has given us a great promise. He has promised us the nations. I recently purchased a map of the world. I’ve found it to be a great help in my intercession for the nations. Here is how it works. I follow a weekly prayer chart for my daily prayers, so I...
