REPOST: "CALL TO PRAYER--LET'S CONTEND FOR OUR BREAKTHROUGH!"

One of the wisest requests anyone ever asked Jesus is mentioned in Luke 11:1 "Lord, teach us to pray."

Jesus responded in verse 2 with, "When you pray...." implying that He knows we need to pray and also that we will pray.

It is so very important to know how and what to pray.

Many ministries, individuals and places are experiencing unprecedented difficulty.

The onslaught seems to be targeting health, protection, relationships and finances (provision).

Much of it is clearly demonic harassment; some are signs and wonders and the shaking and dethroning of principalities and powers.

ALL of it needs prayer. But also this--praying with wisdom, led by the Holy Spirit. If ever there was a time to remember the "Bigness" of our Father in Heaven, this is the time.

Also, if ever there was a time to cry out for the manifestation of God's Kingdom to come and His will to be done--this is also the time!

Kim Clement (and other prophets) have been declaring that we are on the brink of incredible breakthrough. And we are.

It has also been prophesied that this month of October is the time of unusual favor and breakthrough.

All of this can be likened to what a woman experiences in the last few moments of giving birth--the process of bringing that new life into the natural seen realm can be very messy and somewhat violent. You feel like you can hardly go on for even one more moment, but you also know full well that to stop would mean death.

Dear precious Body of Christ--we are in extreme, intense labor--and we can't stop.

Push more--push harder into your breakthrough. Call family and friends to "push with you." Call upon others and "push with them!"

Let's not faint in despair or weariness. LET'S PUSH THROUGH TO BREAKTHROUGH--RIGHT NOW--DON'T WAIT UNTIL LATER!!!

Let's ask for rain (both in the natural and spiritual)--for now is the time for rain.

Pray while in your car driving, or at your desk, or in the Spirit, out loud or in your head, or pray whispering or shouting--God hears it all.

Let's join in together and create a critical mass of concerted worship to God. Let's believe in our faith that He has the answer and let's deliver up prayers that release Heaven's answer--here on earth!
