4 Things that Get in the Way of Us Experiencing the Power of God

I know we all long to experience the power of God in our lives but sometimes it feels like God is not hearing our prayers.

God showed up to Solomon in the night and told him exactly what he required of Israel in order for their prayers to be heard.

Join me on this video as we take a closer look at 2 Chronicles 7:14 – a verse often used out of context. We’ll examine the four things that get in the way of us experiencing the power of God in our lives.

Forty-eight times in the book of Acts, it says, โ€œThey prayed.โ€

The power of the early church came through prayer.

Acts 6:4 says,  โ€œBut we will devote ourselves to prayer and to the ministry of the word.โ€

Acts 6:6 says, โ€œthey prayed and laid their hands on them.โ€

Acts 7:59 says, โ€œAnd as they were stoning Stephen, he called out, โ€œLord Jesus,receive my spirit.โ€

Acts 9:11 says,  โ€œAnd the Lord said to him, โ€œRise and go to the street called Straight, and at the house of Judas look for a man of Tarsus named Saul, for behold, he is praying.โ€œ

Acts 9:40 says,  โ€œBut Peter put them all outside, and knelt down and prayed; and turning to the body he said, โ€œTabitha, arise.โ€ And she opened her eyes, and when she saw Peter she sat up.โ€

Acts 10:1,2 says, โ€œAt Caesarea there was a man named Cornelius, a centurion of what was known as the Italian Cohort, a devout man who feared God with all his household, gave alms generously to the people, and prayed continually to God.โ€

Acts 10:9 says โ€œThe next day, as they were on their journey and approaching the city, Peter went up on the housetop about the sixth hour to pray.โ€œ

Acts 10:30 says โ€œAnd Cornelius said, โ€œFour days ago, about this hour, I was praying in my house at the ninth hourโ€

What about now?

What about you?

We need prayer warriors NOW!

Prayer is a necessity!

  • We need women willing to pray fervently for their husband
  • willing to pray for their children
  • willing to pray for their grandchildren
  • willing to pray for their friends children
  • willing to pray for their co-workers, friends, relatives, neighborhoods, churches, communities, our sisterโ€™s and brotherโ€™s in Christ and the advancement of the gospel โ€“ around the world!

God hears your prayers.

God is ABLE!

โ€œPrayer works. It always has. It always will.โ€
~Priscilla Shirer

May we STOP neglecting the power of prayer in our lives and become prayer warriors.

Will you commit today to pray harder, longer, and more than you have been praying?

The effectual fervent prayer of a righteous man availeth much.
~ James 5:16
