Four Dimensions of Prayer
Matthew 7:7 NKJV
“Ask, and it will be given to you; seek, and you will find; knock, and it will be opened to you.
* Prayer of Asking
This kind of prayer is for the young in faith, they think asking God for things shows humility. This type of Christians, they always expect God to do everything for them. When things don't go their way, they throw tantrums like a child. Most of the time, their asking is off God’s will.
* Prayer of Seeking
This prayer is based on the revelation you have about God. You can only seriously search for what you know belongs to you, and this is based on your knowledge of the word of God. You search until you find what rightfully belongs to you. Jacob knew the blessings that God had for him, hence he was not willing let go without God blessing him.
* Prayer of Knocking
This prayer is based on persistence. You don't stop knocking on a certain door until you see the results. Your faith is fully developed and hope is your second nature. Elijah prayed 7 times until a small cloud appears. This kind of prayer, doesn't get influenced by your surroundings, it's driven by results.
* Decreeing and Declaration (The God Language)
Job 22:28 NKJV
You will also declare a thing, And it will be established for you; So light will shine on your ways.
Decreeing is a command from a place of authority and to declare, is to state a fact (out loud) regarding a situation.
This form of prayer, you do not direct it to God, you speak directly to creation with an understanding that God has restored you through His Son Jesus Christ to His own image.
It a language of Kings and Queens, you speak regarding a situation as a King and from a place of authority.
The bible says:
Lamentations 3:37 NIV
Who can speak and have it happen if the Lord has not decreed it?
The last time I checked, God is a Lord of lords. He didn't create beggars, He created His replicas.
We don't wait to go down on our knees, we speak right there and there and heavens and earth responds. This kind of prayer, you begin to speak to things as if it's God speaking. You are now aware that creation has a mandate to pay attention when you speak.
Begin speaking things into existence from a place of authority.
