The Prayers of the Righteous

James 5:16b: … The effectual fervent prayer of a righteous man availeth much. Is the Lord hearing you? Are you righteous?  As we stand in the gap as intercessors, our goal is to be sure that we qualify our prayers and stand in a position to be heard. Nobody is perfect, but we can strive to walk in obedience to the Lord and keep our lives free from sin.  After all, it is the sin that separates us from God: Isaiah 59:2: But your iniquities have separated between you and your God, and your sins have hid his face from you, that he will not hear. It’s a perfect time for reflection and honesty concerning where we stand with the Lord.  Let’s make a shift, and purge our lives of situations where the Lord face is hidden from us: – if we have unforgiveness in our hearts towards another (Matthew 18:19). – if we are living in sexual sin. – if we are regarding, cherishing or holding iniquity in our hearts (Psalm 66:18).

Pray Your Way Out of Captivity

Job 42:10
And the LORD turned the captivity of Job, when he prayed for his friends: also the LORD gave Job twice as much as he had before.

How To Be Healed

James 5:16
Confess your faults one to another, and pray one for another, that ye may be healed.

Prayer for Finances in the Body

Prayer for Finances in the Body of Christ

Deuteronomy 8:18 (King James Version)
But thou shalt remember the LORD thy God: for it is he that giveth thee power to get wealth, that he may establish his covenant which he sware unto thy fathers, as it is this day.

Father, in the mighty Name of Jesus, we lift up finances in the Body of Christ before You, specifically for tithers and those who are striving to be faithful.

Deliver Your people from negligence, ignorance, greed, lust, pride, slothfulness and presumption, for according to Your Word, these things bring poverty.

Proverbs 23:21
For the drunkard and the glutton shall come to poverty: and drowsiness shall clothe a man with rags.

Help us to be good stewards over that which You have entrusted into our hands. Grant us the means to keep our vows, loans, debts, guaranties:

Ecclesiastes 5:4-6:
When thou vowest a vow unto God, defer not to pay it; for he hath no pleasure in fools: pay that which thou hast vowed. Better is it that thou shouldest not vow, than that thou shouldest vow and not pay. Suffer not thy mouth to cause thy flesh to sin; neither say thou before the angel, that it was an error: wherefore should God be angry at thy voice, and destroy the work of thine hands?

We seek Your face for wisdom to order our affairs properly so that we may prosper and be entrusted with more. Help us to be faithful stewards over what You grant to us.

Matthew 25:23
His lord said unto him, Well done, good and faithful servant; thou hast been faithful over a few things, I will make thee ruler over many things: enter thou into the joy of thy lord.

We pray for Your mercy, Father, for our guilt, presumption, greed and ignorance. Help us to change our inner wiring concerning finances. We rebuke and cancel all strongholds of greed, fear, selfishness and lust that have controlled us. We choose to be liberal and faithful. Prosper us we pray.

Psalm 118:25
Save now, I beseech thee, O LORD: O LORD, I beseech thee, send now prosperity.

In Jesus’ holy Name, Amen.
