James 5:16 (AMPC)
… The earnest (heartfelt, continued) prayer of a righteous man makes tremendous power available [dynamic in its working].
Prayer is the bedrock of Christianity, and your prayers are protocol that prepare the way for you. If you wait until you are in trouble to pray, you are too late. The scripture reminds us that prayer makes tremendous power available. This power is not just for the moment but for the future as well. We do not wait for problems to arise before we begin to pray, but rather we pray ahead.
You can bank prayer. The more you pray, the bigger your deposits in the spiritual realm. When you pray ahead, you are not only preparing yourself for what is to come, but you are also demonstrating your faith in God. You are declaring that you trust His plans for your life and believe in the efficacy of His Spirit to aid you in prayer to address every situation. So, begin to pray ahead and deposit into your prayer banks. Refuse to enter a day that has not been prepared by prayer. You will confidently and boldly draw from these reserves when you face challenges, knowing that your securities are backed by the parliament of Heaven.
PROPHETIC DECLARATION
My life is built on the bedrock of prayer. My messengers have gone ahead of me. No challenge will catch me unaware, and every enemy will be disappointed.
