PRAYER BRINGS VICTORY
PRAYER BRINGS VICTORY
Dear children of God prayer is a sweet experience sharing
with God. In prayer we speak to God and have fellowship with him. Adam and eve
had fellowship with God in the cool of the day. God walked in the Garden and
they walked along with God. Enoah walked with the Lord365 years. This
fellowship and presence of God gives the victory in the human’s life. Daniel
learned this and spent time with God three times every day in prayer. Let us
learn to spend time with God every day in our life and we can lead a victorious
life.
All the presidents of the kingdom, the prefects and the
satraps, the counselors and the governors are agreed that the king should
establish an ordinance and enforce an injunction, that whosoever makes petition
to any god or man for thirty days, except you, O king, shall be cast into the
lion’s den. Now, O king, establish the injunction and sign the document, so
that it cannot be revoked. Therefore king Darius signed the document and
injunction. When Daniel knew that the document had been signed, he went to his
house where he had windows in his upper chamber open toward Jerusalem. He got
down on his knees three times a day and prayed and gave thanks before his God;
as he had done previously. Then these men came by agreement and found Daniel
making petition and plea before his God. Then king command, and Daniel was
brought and cast into the den of lion. The king declares to Daniel, Oh servant
of living God, may your God, whom you serve continually, been able to deliver
you from the lions? Then Daniel said to the king. O king, My God sent his angel
and shut the lion’ mouths, and they have not harmed me.
Daniel’s prayer brought him victory and God answered the individualer’s
prayer and sent his angel into the lion’s den to shut the lion’s mouths and have
not to harm him. Any individualer prays to God, and he answers the prayer and gives
him or her victory over their enemies and changes the rules of the government
upside down. Then the king Darius wrote to all the peoples, all languages that
dwell in all earth; I make a decree, that in all my royal domination people are
to tremble and fear before the God of Daniel, for he is the living God,
enduring forever; his kingdom shall never be destroyed, and his dominion shall
be to the end. He delivers and rescues; he works signs and wonders in heaven
and on earth, he who has saved Daniel from the power of the lions.
Our God not only hears the prayers of individuales, and he hears
the prayers of groups and brings victory.
Herod the king laid violent hands on some who belonged to the church. He
killed James, the brother of John with the sword, and when he saw that it
pleased the Jews, he proceeded to arrest Peter also. This was the season of unleavened
bread. And when he had seized him, he put him in prison, delivering him over to
fours squad of soldiers to guard him, intending after the Passover to bring him
out to the people. So Peter was kept I n the prison, but earnest prayer for him
was made to God by the church.
Now when Herod was about to bring him out, on that very
night, Peter was sleeping between two soldiers bound with two chains, and
sentries before the doors were guarding the prison. And behold an angel of the
Lord stood near to him, and a light shone in the cell. He struck Peter o n the side and woke him,
saying “get up quickly”. And the chains fell off his hands. And the angel said
to him, “dress yourself and put on your shoes.” wrap your cloak around you and
follow me. And he went out and followed him. He did not know that what was
being done by the angel was real. When they passed the first and the second
guard, they came to the Iron Gate leading into the city. It opened for them of
its own accord, and they went out and went along one street, and immediately
the angel left him. When peter came to himself, he said, now I am sure that the
Lord has sent his angel and rescued me from the hand of Herod and fro m all
that the Jewish people were expecting.
Peter went to the house of Mary, the mother of john mark where
many were gathered together and were praying. A group of people were praying
for peter’s release from the prison and no one could go inside the prison but
God sent his angel inside the prison cell itself, and the chains were loosed
and gates were open accordingly. Peter came outside with great victory. Now
when the day came, there was no little disturbance among the soldiers over what
had become of peter. And searched for him and did not find him. He examined the
sentries and ordered that they should be put to death.
Dear friends’ prayer always brings victory to all who seek
God diligently. Today, how about our prayer life? Our God, who is hearing our
prayers, answering our prayers, and brings victory in our life. Prayer is a
sweet time to enjoy the presence of God, Who holds our breath and life in his
hand. So let us come to our Lord with confident, he is a God who gives victory
over sufferings, helpless time, and people and government against us. Let us
not weary in prayers but wait upon the Lord, and they who wait for the Lord
shall renew their strength; they shall mount like eagles; they shall run and
not be weary; they shall walk and not faint. If you are blessed by this
