27 Fire Currencies (Models and Levels) of Prayers – 5
The emergency of prayers
One of the greatest
advantages we (Christian believers) have over unbelievers is prayer. Prayer is
a fellowship and communication with the Heavenly Father, Christ Jesus, and the
Holy Spirit. The unbelievers depend on their strength, friends, and resources
to make things happen.
Some unbelievers, too,
use demonic powers to make things happen. However, we (Christian believers)
have the omnipotent, omnipresent, and omniscient God (Christ Jesus) by our
side. Aside from depending on God for help, we can use our limited resources to
make things happen.
Unbelievers cannot do
anything without their resources. Even if they use demonic powers to attain
their needs and wants, they are still limited because Satan and his minions
have limitations.
Satan and his cohorts are
not omnipresent, omnipotent, and omniscient. They can operate as God permits
them (see Job 1:1-11). However, with prayer, we activate the power and hands of
the Holy Spirit.
This is one reason we
must love prayer. Prayer is our master key. It doesn’t matter how heavy, intense,
and mysterious the situation is; prayer can work it out. You might not know how
God will solve the issue.
However, He will solve
the issue in his own way. You can solve problems with your resources (money,
friends, experts, professionals, and power). However, there are some things you
cannot do with your resources.
This is where prayer comes
in. I have realized that people are obsessed with their needs and wants. People
often think about themselves and their families. Even in some families, they
don’t care about each other.
How much are you being an
outsider (stranger)? This is one reason you have to build yourself in prayer. Prayer
might look “unreasonable” in the natural man’s eyes. It might look “weak” in certain
situations.
However, my experience
with prayers is that they work wonders. How you expect God to solve a specific
issue might differ from your ways because God works mysteriously (meditate on
Isaiah 55:6-9).
A time will come when you
have to forsake everyone and pray. You have to seek the face of God for
direction. If you have not read my previous articles, I encourage you to check
them out. I have enumerated over twenty types of prayers.
Please read them for more
profound revelations about prayers. As far as we live in this world, we must
pray. We must pray because we live in a dark world surrounded by wicked minds
and hostile spiritual forces who desire our downfall (meditate on 1 Peter
5:8-9, John 10:10, Ephesians 6:10-18, Matthew 26:41).
Prayer will help us
discern genuine and false people. Prayer can sharpen our spiritual senses to
detect deceptive and honest people. Through prayers, the Holy Spirit will
unveil the snake within the darkness.
The Holy Spirit will
expose the wolves within the sheep, when we build ourselves in prayers. Like a
microscope, it can help us detect tiny animals. We cannot see certain animals
with our natural eyes.
However, with a
microscope, we can see them. That’s how prayer works. Prayer helps us see the
invisible. Like the telescope, it allows us to see far distances. What the
natural eyes cannot see in distant places, the telescope helps us see them.
That’s how prayer works.
Prayer helps us to see into the future. Prayer sharpens our spiritual senses.
The Holy Spirit positions us to stand on the holy mountain through prayers. We can see what the natural man cannot see on this mountain.
On this mountain, we can explore the natural and
supernatural world. If you want to be significant, let prayers be part of you
because Satan and his minions will oppose you. Apostle Paul wrote that we must
be consistent in prayers.
Pray without ceasing.
1 Thessalonians 5:17 KJV
If Apostle Paul commands
us to be prayerful, why are you doubting prayers? Some people are consistent
with their breakfast, lunch, and supper, yet not with their prayer life. Some
people know when to watch specific television programs, yet they don’t have a
prayer life. You are making a loss if you have no prayers enshrined in your
daily schedules. Familiar spirits will take advantage of you when you fail to
pray strategically.
Is any among you afflicted? let him pray. Is any merry? let him sing
psalms.
James 5:13 KJV
- Are you going through pain? Some pains are spiritual; therefore, pray.
- Are you depressed? Demons can make people live in depression; therefore, pray.
- Are you experiencing sleepless nights because of bad dreams? Evil spirits can project dreams, therefore pray.
- Are you troubled? Pray to heal the troubled spirit and soul.
- Have you lost hope? Pray to revive your faith.
- Are people abandoning you for no reason? Pray to break the curse of rejection and evil marks.
- Are you tired of life? Pray to receive wisdom and zeal to become purposeful.
- Do you feel like committing suicide? Deploy the glossa prayers. The Holy Spirit will deliver you.
- Are you confused? Pray; the Holy Spirit will show you the way.
Prayer is our backbone. When
you ignore prayers, you become a tool in the enemy’s hand. Like a tree, its
strength rests on the root. If the root is weak, the tree will not stand the
storms of life. However, if the root is firm, it can live long, irrespective of
the season.
That is how prayer works.
Prayer is the root of our spirit. The more we pray, the stronger our root. Fly
with me as I share five fire currencies of prayers. These models and levels of
prayers will empower you to pray strategically.
Kindly check out my
previous article for more profound revelations about the currencies (types and levels) of prayers. Do well to share the link to this article so others can receive the knowledge that brings deliverance. Below are
the currencies of prayers.
The five models and levels of prayers
1. Ago prayers
And Jesus being full of the Holy Ghost returned from Jordan, and was
led by the Spirit into the wilderness,
Luke 4:1 KJV
This prayer is similar to
the eremos prayer; however, it differs. With ago prayers, the
Holy Spirit drives us to pray in a specific location. However, with eremos
prayer, we intentionally move to a solitary place to pray.
As stated, with ago
prayers, the Holy Spirit firmly directs us to pray in a specific place. One
reason the Holy Spirit drives us to pray in a particular location is to make us
dominate that place with the presence of God.
Ago prayer
is a prayer of divine clearance. It is through this prayer that the Trinity
endorses us for divine assignment. Christ Jesus prayed the ago prayers before
embarking on His mission. Without ago prayers, you will not receive
divine backup.
Ago prayers grant us a divine
certificate to embark on our assignment. Like a new employee, he goes through a
series of training before starting work. The training prepares him for the job.
In the same way, ago prayers prepare us for the assignment.
Ago prayer builds
us in the storms so that we can stand the attacks of the devil, unbelievers,
demons, and carnal Christians. Ago prayer makes people accept us.
Completing ago prayer makes Heaven and Earth support us.
Ago prayer is a subset
of glossa prayers. The Holy Spirit burdens our hearts to pray in a specific
place for some time. The Holy Spirit often presses us to fast while praying in
the prescribed location.
Ago prayer
takes strong faith, persistence, and discipline to complete. Like Christ Jesus,
the Holy Spirit drove him to embark on this prayer. After embarking on this
prayer, He operated more in the supernatural.
Ago prayer
gives us the certificate to operate in the supernatural realm. When we embark
on this prayer, the Holy Spirit invests the gift of working miracles in our
inner man. The Holy Spirit drives us to pray this prayer. However, we must
surrender our will to the Holy Spirit. Are you ignoring ago prayers?
2. Prophetikos prayers
One of the best prayers
to pray is the prophetikos prayer. With this prayer, we release unique words inspired
by the Holy Spirit. We declare as inspired by the Holy Spirit. People with prophetic
gifts often operate in these prayers.
Prophetikos prayers often
manifest in prayer meetings. This prayer shows up when the Church meets,
especially in prayer mountains, camps, and places packed with prophets.
And it was so, that when he had turned his back to go from
Samuel, God gave him another heart: and all those signs came to pass that day.
And when they came thither to the hill, behold, a company of prophets
met him; and the Spirit of God came upon him, and he prophesied among them.
And it came to pass, when all that knew him beforetime saw that,
behold, he prophesied among the prophets, then the people said one to another,
What is this that is come unto the son of Kish? Is Saul
also among the prophets?
And one of the same place answered and said, But who is their
father? Therefore it became a proverb, Is Saul also among the prophets?
And when he had made an end of prophesying, he came to the high place.
1 Samuel 10:9-13 KJV
After Samuel anointed
Saul as the king of Israel, Saul found himself among the prophets. Because Saul
connected with the prophets, the Spirit of the Lord came upon him, and He began
to prophesy.
Remember, Saul was not a
prophet. However, when he identified with the prophets, he deployed this
prayer. Prophetikos prayers are divinely power-packed prayers emanating from
the courts of Heaven.
With these prayers, we
declare the counsels of God. I operate in this prayer by God’s grace. Prophetikos
prayers is about decrees and declarations. This prayer often comes as a judgment
on wicked and unrepentant nations, evil leaders, organizations, and corrupt individuals.
Prophetikos prayers
edifies the body of Christ Jesus. This prayer gives direction to the Church
when making important decisions. As stated, this prayer operates in individuals
with the prophetic gift, especially prophets. With this prayer, we poured out
the mind of the Holy Spirit concerning a situation.
And as we tarried there many days, there came down from Judaea a
certain prophet, named Agabus.
And when he was come unto us, he took Paul's girdle, and bound his own
hands and feet, and said, Thus saith the Holy Ghost, So shall the Jews at
Jerusalem bind the man that owneth this girdle, and shall deliver him
into the hands of the Gentiles.
Acts 21:10-11 KJV
Prophet Agabus prophesied
about Apostle Paul’s journey (suffering), and it came to pass. Agabus also
prophesied about the famine in Judea, and it came to pass. That’s a similar
example of prophetikos prayers.
If you read the books
Isaiah, Jeremiah, Ezekiel, Psalms, and some books by the minor prophets, you
would realize that they prayed this prayer. Sometimes, God will tell the
prophets to prophesy (pray) against certain tribes and leadership.
Other times, God commands
the prophets to prophesy blessings. That’s an example of prophetikos prayers. One
thing about this prayer (prophecy) is that it takes us to the future. Prophetikos
prayer borrows information from the spiritual world and supplies it to the
earthly realm.
Prophetikos prayer is
founded in the Word of God (the Holy Bible). Another key element of this prayer
is that a group of godly prophets can judge this prayer, whether the prayer
(prophecies) is from the Holy Spirit, the devil, the human soul, or the flesh.
Godly prophets can judge prophetikos'
prayers because they are often authoritative. Secondly, the Holy Bible commands
us to judge these prayers (see 1 Corinthians 14:29-33). Failure to reject false
prophetikos prayers can cause calamities.
It can open the portal
for evil spirits to work with the prayers if it is not from the Holy Spirit. Prophetikos's
prayer can change the destiny of nations, organizations, and individuals if the
people obey the instructions in the prayers.
Prophetikos comes when
people earnestly need direction from the Holy Spirit. Apply wisdom when praying
and receiving this prayer because it can confuse families, organizations, and
communities.
Prophetikos' prayers can
activate blessings and curses; therefore, apply wisdom if you have the
prophetic gift. The fact that you are in the Spirit does not mean you cannot
apply wisdom. Prophetikos' prayers can shape or destroy destinies; therefore,
apply the wisdom of the Holy Spirit. It is time to deploy this prayer. The judgment
and blessings of God will prevail if you deploy this prayer with faith.
3. Strateia prayer
Finally, my brethren, be strong in the Lord, and in the power of his
might.
Put on the whole armour of God, that ye may be able to stand against
the wiles of the devil.
For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities,
against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against
spiritual wickedness in high places.
Ephesians 6:10-12 KJV
Strateia prayer is one of
the commonest prayers in Churches. With this prayer, we wage war against the
Kingdom of Darkness. As stated in the Holy Spirit scriptures, Apostle Paul
writes that we should put on the whole armor of God because we wrestle with wicked
spiritual forces.
I used to watch wrestling
in my teenage years. However, I rarely watch wrestling because time will not
allow me. Secondly, I see wrestling videos as a time waste. Wrestling can
influence us violently if we keep watching it.
In wrestling, anything
goes! The fighters can hit each other with anything. It is not boxing, where
you only use your hands. When wrestling, you can use your hands, legs, metals,
and any offensive material!
That is how the Apostle
described spiritual warfare in the Holy Scriptures. We are wrestling with
principalities, powers, rulers of darkness of this world, and spiritual hosts
of wickedness. This is a tough battle!
Although Christ Jesus has
won the battle, we are supposed to exercise our authority. Satan and his
minions will not keep silent because Christ Jesus has won the battle. Satan and
his cohorts are extremely rebellious!
They will still fight
despite their defeat. That’s the nature of the devil and demons. Satan and his
minions will not surrender without a fight! I remember leading a group of
people in prayers. While praying, I entered into prophetikos prayers.
One of the ladies said a
family member bought her a gift. When he brought the gift home, it turned into
stones! I saw the stones packaged in black rubber. She showed them to me. This
lady has a handsome child.
However, the power in her
family fought her spiritually. She could not enjoy her blessings because of the
witches and wizards in her family. The devil and his cohorts are wicked to the
highest degree!
We are supposed to fight
them with strateia prayers. Failure to fight them in prayers will empower them
to work wickedness. Are you deploying strateia prayers? With these prayers, we
stand against territorial powers.
We must oppose the
rebellion and wickedness of witches, wizards, Satanists, Sorcerers, Necromancers,
magicians, occults, and secret societies that oppose God and his Kingdom
(Christians and the Church).
I encourage you to
download and read my series of books for a more profound revelation about the enemy, his
works, and how to dominate them. The books are free on my blog. Spiritual
warfare will continue until Christ Jesus wipes the dragon and its cohorts out
on the battle of Armageddon.
Christ Jesus and His
angels will wipe out Satan and his minions on the final day! As far as the
final battle has not occurred, we must wrestle and resist the devil (see 1 Peter
5:8-9, Ephesians 6:10-12).
Remember, this is spiritual
wrestling. Anything goes when it comes to wrestling. The devil and his minions
can use anything and anyone to attack. This is one reason you must know your
spiritual weapons.
You must know how to pray
strateia prayers. You cannot fight the devil and his minions with physical
weapons. You need spiritual weapons to dominate these wicked and unmerciful spiritual
forces! One of the ways to dominate the devil and his minions is to deploy strateia
prayers.
If after the manner of men I have fought with beasts at Ephesus…
1 Corinthians 15:32 KJV
I encourage you to
download and read my book, Should We Fight for a more profound
revelation. The book is free on my blog. Apostle Paul fought wicked forces in
prayers. Paul knew strateia prayers.
He took territories in
the spiritual realm because he deployed strateia prayers. Apostle Paul did
mighty work because he waged good warfare. Analyze the vessels God used. They
did not joke with spiritual warfare prayers.
If you want to make a
mark in God’s Kingdom and every godly endeavor, do not forsake strateia prayers.
Are you ignoring strateia prayers? Start strateia prayers to avoid the
wickedness of Satan and his cohorts!
4. Thelema prayers
He (Christ Jesus) went away again the second time, and prayed, saying,
O my Father, if this cup may not pass away from me, except I drink it, thy will
be done.
Matthew 26:42 KJV (Emphasis added)
One of the reasons our
Savior and Lord Christ Jesus completed His assignment was because He prayed thelema
prayers. With this prayer, we pray for the will of God to be done in our lives.
Sometimes, we want our way because the path looks gloomy and unbearable.
However, we must
understand that God's plans for our lives are not evil. God’s plan for our
lives is to bring us to an expected end (see Jeremiah 29:11). Christ Jesus saw
the suffering, wickedness, and abuse of humankind.
In the flesh, He felt the
pain, rejection, depression, and shame. Christ Jesus wanted another option. Looking
at the situation, He wanted His Heavenly Father to use a different method.
However, Christ Jesus prayed that the will of His Heavenly Father be done.
Christ Jesus could have chosen
his way and escaped the cross. However, He knew the thoughts of His Heavenly
Father was righteous. Christ Jesus chose death instead of life. He chose
suffering instead of joy.
Christ Jesus prayed that
the purpose of God over His life should prevail. There will come a time when you
have to pray like Christ Jesus. You might think you are on the right path.
However, you are on a dangerous path.
There is a way that seemeth right unto a man, but the end thereof are
the ways of death.
Proverbs 16:25 KJV
Pray that the will of God
be done in your life. Do not depend on your strengths, resources, family, friends,
experts, and professionals. Pray that the will of God be done in your life.
Like Christ Jesus, He had the power to forsake the cross (see Matthew 26:47-53).
However, Christ Jesus
prayed that the will of God should prevail over his desires. Sometimes, the
flesh can make us deviate from the plans of God. When we look at the future,
fear begins to dominate us.
We sometimes allow the
unbelievers, unholy spiritual forces, the flesh, the lustful desires of the
soul, and carnal Christians to control us. We must be careful lest we enter the
path of death. If Adam and Eve stayed in the will of God, the serpent (Satan)
would not have deceived them.
The devil can hide the
dangers and present the benefits. Sin entices. Analyze the consequences. You
might have “fun” for a few minutes or seconds. After the temporal “pleasure,”
you enter the path of death (meditate on Romans 6:23).
Many people are in their
early graves because they did not pray for the will of God concerning their
lives. They ignored God’s plan for their lives and chose their way. The devil
can suggest. However, it cannot force you to obey its instructions.
Family and friends can
suggest. However, they cannot force you to choose their paths. The flesh and
lustful desires of the soul can suggest to you. However, they cannot force you
to embark on the decision.
Choosing your way without
the influence of the Holy Spirit can lead to calamities. God’s plan for our
lives is to bring us to an expected end. It might look impossible at the initial
stage. Our natural senses might oppose the will of God in our lives.
The comfort zone can
limit us from praying the will of God for our lives. Spend quality time praying
for the will of God. We might not be sure of God’s plan for our lives. However,
if we deploy thelema prayers, we will see the glory of the Holy Spirit.
Also, note that we can
find God's general will (plans and purpose) in the Holy Bible. Through thelema
prayers, you find God's specific will for your life. For instance, it is God’s
will to preach the gospel.
However, it takes thelema
prayers to find the exact location to preach and start a ministry. Praying for
the plans of God to be fulfilled in your life is a great way to unlock the
blessings of the Holy Spirit.
As stated, we can find
the will of God in the Holy Bible. You don’t pray whether you should win souls
for Christ Jesus because the will of God (the Holy Bible) states we must preach
the gospel (see Matthew 28:18-20, Mark 16:14-20).
You don’t have to pray
for the will of God whether to fornicate or not. The Holy Bible states that
fornication is evil. Many things in the Holy Bible clearly state the will of God.
With these instructions, you don’t have to spend time praying for God's will.
You have to obey the Holy
Bible (the will of God). However, you need a specific direction to embark on
the will of God. That is where thelema prayer comes in. When the Holy Bible
says something concerning your situation, it is the will of God.
However, a situation will
come in your life, and you have to pray for God's plans to be done in your
life. Maybe you “received a call from the Holy Spirit” to vacate your job and
enter full-time ministry.
You want to be sure
whether it is the will of God to quit your job and embark on missionary work. In
this situation, you pray for the will of God whether to quit your job and start
a full-time ministry.
Christ Jesus knew it was
the will of His Heavenly Father that He died painfully on the cross. However, Christ
Jesus' flesh saw the pain, so He prayed that the will of God prevail. Christ
Jesus prayed for divine strength while praying for the will of God.
When you pray thelema
prayers, you receive divine power to do things that flesh and demons oppose. The
situation may look unreasonable. However, thelema prayers will press you to
embark on the journey because you have received assurance from the Holy Spirit.
I remember meeting a man
who told me God instructed him to quit his job and enter full-time ministry. He
said that he received a lot of money from his job. However, He obeyed the will
of God.
When he followed the
voice of the Holy Spirit, he met his wife in one of his missionary works. He has
two boys (children) with the wife he met in his evangelistic work. What would have
happened if he did not obey the will of God for his life?
The will of God may look unreasonable.
However, pray that the Holy Spirit grants you grace to obey it. How can Christ
Jesus, a sinless man (God), suffer in the hands of wicked people? The Heavenly
Father planned that Christ Jesus suffered and died on the cross.
When Christ Jesus prayed
for the will of God to be done in his life, He received the strength to fulfill
the assignment. Christ Jesus rose from the dead on the third day! He holds the
key to life and death because He did the will of the Heavenly Father.
It’s time to pray that
the plans of the Heavenly Father be done in your life. Sometimes, your family
can stop you from pursuing the plans of God for your life. Your loved ones can
become stumbling blocks when embarking on the will of God.
The devil and his minions
can influence you to disobey the Holy Spirit's voice. At this stage, you have
to pray for God's will. The Holy Spirit can eliminate anyone who stands in His
way.
The Heavenly Father will ensure
you fulfill His plans when you pray that His will be done. If you pray for the
will of God to be done in your life, the Holy Spirit will take control of the
situation. Are you ignoring thelema's prayers?
5. Dianoia prayers
Wherefore I also, after I heard of your faith in the Lord Jesus, and
love unto all the saints,
Cease not to give thanks for you, making mention of you in my prayers;
That the God of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of glory, may give
unto you the spirit of wisdom and revelation in the knowledge of him:
The eyes of your understanding being enlightened; that ye may know what
is the hope of his calling, and what the riches of the glory of his inheritance
in the saints,
Ephesians 1:15-18 KJV
Apostle Paul knew that
the Church could not do much without wisdom. Paul prayed that the Church get a revelation
of Christ Jesus. How can you serve someone you do not know? You must pray about
a person before serving him because there are repercussions.
Serving a wicked person
can make you cruel because of soul ties. In the same way, serving a righteous
vessel can make you desire righteousness. Pray that the Holy Spirit helps you know
Christ Jesus.
Pray that the Holy Spirit
makes you encounter Christ Jesus. One thing about dianoia prayer is that you
receive the enlightenment of Christ Jesus when you pray from the deepest part
of your heart.
With this prayer, you get
special knowledge about Christ Jesus. When you receive a revelation about
Christ Jesus, you will know how to walk and live with the Holy Spirit. Assuming
you know your manager, in that case, you will position yourself well.
You will do what he likes
and hate what he dislikes because you know him. If you do not know your
manager, how will you please him? In the same way, you must know the God you
are serving.
We serve a Holy and
loving God. When you know the Holy Spirit, you will not struggle to communicate
and fellowship with Him. You will know how to receive favor from the Holy
Spirit when you know Him.
Some Christians struggle
because they don’t have a revelation about Christ Jesus and the Holy Spirit. By
God’s grace, I have had some encounters with Christ Jesus, the Holy Spirit,
angels, and saints of God.
One thing I have realized
about Christ Jesus is love. His presence explains love. The Holy Spirit's presence
reveals orderliness, leadership, and power. Angels minister with power. They
protect and follow godly instructions.
The saints are channels
of blessings. Through them, we receive elevation and mantles. With this
revelation about Christ Jesus, the Holy Spirit, holy angels, and saints of God, I will
know how to communicate and fellowship with the Trinity, angels, and saints of
God.
By the way, I have had
several encounters with demons. It’s mind-blowing! One identifying mark of evil
spirits is that they work with fear. They cannot dominate you if fear does not
conquer you.
I will share these
experiences with you in my upcoming books and articles. I have shared some visions
and experiences on my blog and books. However, the Holy Spirit keeps showing me
mysteries of the spiritual world and unseen forces.
If you want to walk and
live in the path of the Holy Spirit, pray for wisdom. Pray that the Lord grants
you divine knowledge. When you receive wisdom and sacred knowledge (revelation)
about Christ Jesus, the Holy Spirit, and the works of the enemy, Satan and his
cohorts will not dominate you.
You will know how to
position yourself when enemies throw stones at you. When you encounter the Holy
Spirit, you will know how to walk with Him. The pressures and corruption of the
world, the lustful desires of the soul, and the wickedness of unseen forces
will not triumph over you when you have the wisdom of the Holy Spirit and
revelations about the spiritual realm.
Nothing can shake you out
of God’s plan when you have some knowledge about the Trinity. It is time to
pray that God gives you wisdom. Pray that God opens your eyes of understanding.
Pray that you receive a revelation about the Trinity.
With this knowledge, you
become unstoppable! I encourage you to download and read my series of books.
The books are free on my blog. Are you ignoring dianoia prayers? Enforce these
prayers to receive uncommon wisdom and revelation to live a supernatural life. I
may continue in the next article. Kindly share the link to this article
so others can receive the knowledge that brings deliverance.
