Bible Framework for our Prayer Life – Our Life of Prayer. Who’s Ready to take Your Life of Prayer to the Biblical Level?

It is the stated will of God that His people “stand perfect and complete in all the will of God.” And so, we know we can and should ask Him for just that!

“Epaphras, who is one of you, a servant of Christ, saluteth you, always labouring fervently for you in prayers, that ye may stand perfect and complete in all the will of God.” Colossians 4:12

God Answers the Prayers of His Saints in Jesus’ Name

“And whatsoever ye shall ask in my name, that will I do, that the Father may be glorified in the Son. 14 If ye shall ask any thing in my name, I will do it.” John 14:13-14

“Ask, and it shall be given you; seek, and ye shall find; knock, and it shall be opened unto you: Matthew 7:7

As your brother in Christ, please allow me to exhort you, if you haven’t begun already, to begin a list of members of Christ’s body that you lift in prayer each and every morning before the throne of God’s grace (Hebrews 4:14-16).

“… Pray one for another, that ye may be healed. The effectual fervent prayer of a righteous man availeth much.” James 5:16

This is biblical truth, carries divine authority, on exactly how to pray for others, and ourselves each morning. This is the bless-ed way to begin each day.

“Pray without ceasing.” 1 Thessalonians 5:17

Organizing our whole life and each day around seeking God in our first waking moments is the only biblical prescription for success in this life! See Psalms 5:3; 63:1; Matthew 6:33; Mark 1:35, etc..

“Men ought always to pray, and not to faint;” Luke 18:1

Requests we can cry out to God in prayer for daily:

Ask the LORD’s forgiveness and mercy and grace for any sin we may have committed in thought, word, or deed….

“Seeing then that we have a great high priest, that is passed into the heavens, Jesus the Son of God, let us hold fast our profession. 15 For we have not an high priest which cannot be touched with the feeling of our infirmities; but was in all points tempted like as we are, yet without sin. 16 Let us therefore come boldly unto the throne of grace, that we may obtain mercy, and find grace to help in time of need.” Hebrews 4;14-16

Ask the LORD to grant us hearts of flesh and to take away any and all stony places…

“For I will take you from among the heathen, and gather you out of all countries, and will bring you into your own land. 25 Then will I sprinkle clean water upon you, and ye shall be clean: from all your filthiness, and from all your idols, will I cleanse you. 26 A new heart also will I give you, and a new spirit will I put within you: and I will take away the stony heart out of your flesh, and I will give you an heart of flesh.” Ezekiel 36:24-26

Jesus prayed that He would grant us to be one with the Father, Son, and body of Christ (John 17).

“That they all may be one; as thou, Father, art in me, and I in thee, THAT THEY ALSO MAY BE ONE IN US: that the world may believe that thou hast sent me.” John 17:21

That out of this oneness with Him, there will be great fruit born for His eternal glory (John 15).

“Every branch in me that beareth not fruit he taketh away: and every branch that beareth fruit, he purgeth it, that it may bring forth more fruit. … 5 I am the vine, ye are the branches: He that abideth in me, and I in him, the same bringeth forth much fruit: for without me ye can do nothing.” John 15:2, 5

That He would strengthen you and the members of His body with the might of His Holy Ghost in our inner man for His glory.

“That he would grant you, according to the riches of his glory, to be strengthened with might by his Spirit in the inner man;” Ephesians 3:16

Asking Him for a the gift of true repentance and clean heart.

“Create in me a clean heart, O God; and renew a right spirit within me.” Psalms 51:10

That we, individually and as the members of Christ’s body, would be in the perfect will of God.

That He would unite our hearts to fear His name.

“Teach me thy way, O Lord; I will walk in thy truth: unite my heart to fear thy name.” Psalms 86:11

That He would increase our faith.

“And the apostles said unto the Lord, Increase our faith.” Luke 17:5

That He would perfect that which concerns our lives for His glory.

“The LORD will perfect that which concerneth me: thy mercy, O LORD, endureth for ever: forsake not the works of thine own hands.” Psalms 138:8

“Wherefore, my beloved, as ye have always obeyed, not as in my presence only, but now much more in my absence, work out your own salvation with fear and trembling. 13 For it is God which worketh in you both to will and to do of his good pleasure.” Philippians 2:12-13

The Disciple’s Prayer

“9 After this manner therefore pray ye: Our Father which art in heaven, Hallowed be thy name.
10 Thy kingdom come. Thy will be done in earth, as it is in heaven.
11 Give us this day our daily bread.
12 And forgive us our debts, as we forgive our debtors.
13 And lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil: For thine is the kingdom, and the power, and the glory, for ever. Amen.
14 For if ye forgive men their trespasses, your heavenly Father will also forgive you:
15 But if ye forgive not men their trespasses, neither will your Father forgive your trespasses.” Matthew 6:9-15

YOUR PRAYER: Heavenly Father, we come to You in the name of Jesus Christ, asking You to hear this prayer for the body of Christ, including ourselves. We ask You to forgive our sins afresh, to take away the stony, hardened places in our hearts and replace them with an heart of flesh. Cause our hearts to be tender dear LORD. Please make us one with You and the Father LORD and bless us to truly abide in Christ and produce the fruit that brings You glory. Strengthen Your people with the divine might of Your Holy Ghost in us and create in us a clean, pure heart. Bless us to stand perfect and complete in all the will of God and unite our hearts to fear Thy name. Thank You for perfecting that which concerns our lives and for working in us both to will and to do of Your good pleasure. Thank You for teaching us the cross – the crucified life – and for conforming us to the image of Christ. Into Thy holy hands we commend, we submit our spirit. In Jesus’ name. Amen.

Lay Up For Yourselves Treasures in Heaven [podcast]

“LAY UP FOR YOURSELVES”

The only wealth that will last, forever, is that which is gained by obeying God in this life – thereby laying up treasure in Heaven.

Money Has Wings

“Labour not to be rich: cease from thine own wisdom. Wilt thou set thine eyes upon that which is not? for riches certainly make themselves wings; they fly away as an eagle toward heaven.” Proverbs 23:4-5

Instruction: “Labour not to be rich” v4
Instruction: “cease from thine own wisdom” v4
Question?: “Wilt thou set thine eyes upon that which is not?” v5
Wisdom to ponder: “for riches certainly make themselves wings; they fly away as an eagle toward heaven” v5

Note this phrase in v5 (please read carefully) – “riches certainly make themselves wings; they fly away as an eagle toward heaven.” Now watch this – “they fly away as an eagle toward heaven.” What does that mean? Simply, the way we spend our money on earth will testify about our lives on Judgment Day and we will thereby be rewarded or stripped of rewards or even kept out of the kingdom (Lk. 16:19-31; James 2:1-7; 5:1-6; etc.). The usage of our money is a direct reflection of the priorities of our hearts (Matt. 6:21).

Treasures In Heaven

IN previous generations, young men and women gave up their whole life of luxury in America to go to a foreign land to preach the Gospel of Christ. Today we have a generation of professing “Christians” who won’t so much as give up a penny to support the preaching of the Gospel of the glorious Savior they claim to be saved by.

How important is Christ and His Gospel to you? Jesus told us exactly how important we count Him and His Gospel….

People spend, waste money on every frivolity under Heaven and seldom lay up treasures in Heaven using their temporal coin (Matthew 6:19-21). Read Jesus’ teaching recorded in Luke 16.

Our LORD instructs us to lay up treasure, but in Heaven not here in this temporal world where the dollar will soon be obsolete, superseded by rewards earned during this earthly life.

“Lay not up for yourselves treasures upon earth, where moth and rust doth corrupt, and where thieves break through and steal: But lay up for yourselves treasures (lots) in heaven, where neither moth nor rust doth corrupt, and where thieves do not break through nor steal:” Matthew 6:19-20

Saint of the Most High, are you going to look back in eternity and deeply regret the opportunities God gave you in this fleeting life that you passed up? – to bless another believer or to support the work of Christ and send forward eternal rewards?

“For where your treasure is, there will your heart be also.” Matthew 6:21

WHERE are you laying up treasure?

Your investments into God’s kingdom work in this short life are truly safe, secure, life-giving, and eternal. No one can take them away.

DISCIPLE OF JESUS, Jesus Christ is all-knowing and sees everything and will reward every good deed or work done in His name and love.

“For God is not unrighteous to forget your work and labour of love, which ye have shewed toward his name, in that ye have ministered to the saints, and do minister.” Hebrews 6:10

Tithing is not commanded under the New Testament. Yet giving and putting God first is commanded and is the privilege of the saints of Christ (Proverbs 3:9-10; Matthew 6:33; Luke 6:38).

LET’S LEARN GOD’S WORD TOGETHER – ONE TRUTH AT A TIME: Are you tired of reading Scripture or hearing a good message from the Word and not retaining it for yourself and to help others?

Living with an Eternal Perspective [podcast]

“While we look not at the things which are seen, but at the things which are not seen: for the things which are seen are temporal; but the things which are not seen are eternal.” 2 Corinthians 4:18 Someone has rightly stated that covetousness and greed and the love of money is going to damn more souls than any other sin. Read Jesus’ parable of the rich fool and memorize Luke 12:15. See Luke 12:15-21. Jesus says: “Take heed, and beware of covetousness: for a man’s life consisteth not in the abundance of the things which he possesseth.” Luke […]

HIS TRUTH IS MARCHING ON – THROUGH HIS PEOPLE “The Lord gave the word: great was the company of those that published it.” Psalms 68:11 THERE is no time to waste – Jesus is coming.

Mission Mexico Update Part 34 [video]

Mexico Army Personnel Ministered to [podcast]

“Love this walk around ministry here in Mexico. Handed a fella a tract and about 3 minutes later I passed by him and he was still reading it.” Mark

Brother Mark is a studious, diligent disciple of Jesus. Diligently doing the ultimate mission for our Messiah which is eternal. Thank you for lifting our brother in prayer (Colossians 4:12).

Mission Mexico – This is brother in Christ Juan. After ministering to him he lit up and informed me that he is a born again Christian. He is now distributing the JESUS tract on a very busy street where his shop it (the one he owns). God is good. Satan is a liar. Jesus is coming. Let’s roll saints. More Mission Mexico updates here.

“You mentioned our prayers are golden with God. How true this is according to Revelation 5:8. They are ‘golden vials’ (prayers and praises). That go upward to heaven right to the Lord! Carried up to the throne of heaven. And are received as a sweet odour to God! If done out of a pure heart. Because we know He hears the prayers of the righteous (Proverbs 15:29). If we are clothed in humility, our prayers and praises will be a sweet-smelling aroma to our Lord Jesus!” Karen Cochran

Regrettably, most professing Christians will never love Jesus enough to give up this fleeting world for Heaven’s coming King (Luke 14:33; 17:33).

When asked if she desired Christians in the USA to lift her in prayer, Maria immediately responded in the affirmative. Thank you for lifting the people in Mexico in your prayer, right now if you wish to pause.

Last evening brother Mark and I met up again with the dear pharmacist man. Gave him a big hug, warmly interacted with him, and gave him a fresh supply of the JESUS tract to continue to distribute from his pharmacy which is on a very busy corner here in Mexico and has daily walk in and walk by traffic.

A few days ago…. TONIGHT …. Another 50-60 JESUS tracts distributed and God’s Word spoken to many. 99% reception rate. God is good. Jesus is coming. Let’s roll saints. Mission Mexico underway. Your prayers and support are vital.

The receptivity of the Mexican people to our LORD’s Gospel is staggering, utterly dumbfounding.

“Truthfully amazing. I don’t think we here in in America can even begin to comprehend what God is doing in the hearts of the Mexican people. The book of Acts is the closest thing we have to understanding. I just read Daniel 12:3 “and they that the turn many to righteousness as the stars for ever and ever.” Your and Mark’s lives in Christ are a shining testament to so many as you lead them to salvation and the righteousness only found in Christ.” Karen Cochran

Recently it was made known that a new batch of the JESUS tracts in Spanish was a need. A dear disciple of Christ funded that. God is good. 1,500 JESUS tracts! Done! appr 7,000 distributed thus far!

After the last newsletter, a dear sister in Christ jumped in and sent the money for us to print 1,500 more of the JESUS tract in Spanish. So now to date 9,000 have been printed during Mission Mexico. Appr 7,000 already distributed! 7,000 souls heard and read the Gospel of our LORD thus far and your prayers and support make this possible!

Jesus the Great High Priest

“Seeing then that we have a great high priest, that is passed into the heavens, Jesus the Son of God, let us hold fast our profession.

15 For we have not an high priest which cannot be touched with the feeling of our infirmities; but was in all points tempted like as we are, yet without sin.

16 Let us therefore come boldly unto the throne of grace, that we may obtain mercy, and find grace to help in time of need.” Hebrew 4:14-16

“NEVER take a Vacation from God” [podcast]

Jesus is coming saints – we’re going home soon to His forever home (John 14:1-6).

“Let not your heart be troubled: ye believe in God, believe also in me.

2 In my Father’s house are many mansions: if it were not so, I would have told you. I go to prepare a place for you.

3 And if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come again, and receive you unto myself; that where I am, there ye may be also.

4 And whither I go ye know, and the way ye know.”

God be praised for those who are financially supporting this outreach. We will continue to do with that which comes in. Here are some things that can be done….

More support to others doing ministry in the USA.

We support Allan Abayon, who is a sound disciple and now ministering in the Philippines.

More support for requested books by Jay, a chaplain who ministers to 800 inmates in Texas, on the border. He’s the brother who contacted me after he got a hold of one of the Authentic Disciple of Jesus books (Spanish) in the jail he ministers in. He loved it and asked for more. We’ve only sent him a few dozen as that’s all the money that was given for such…..

Roger (pictured below) is a brother in Christ and after we talked he took some JESUS tracts to distribute. Amen LORD. Roger was asked if he’d like Christians in the USA to lift him in prayer and he eagerly said “yes.” Would you like to pause now and lift up our brother in Christ to the Father in Jesus’ name?

Dear saints in Christ, thank you for agreeing that it is our privilege to help these beloved people, to take out of what GOD has put in our hand to help HIS work.

The Killing Power of the Holy Ghost with Judge Travis Bryan III [podcast]

“For if ye live after the flesh, ye shall die: but if ye through the Spirit do mortify the deeds of the body, ye shall live.” Romans 8:13

“The cross of Christ is the sweetest burden that I ever bore; it is such a burden as wings are to a bird, or sails to a ship, to carry me forward to my harbor.” Samuel Rutherford

Momentum in the power of the Holy Spirit comes from a continual perpetual downward dying motion, being then raised up reciprocally in the resurrection grace of Jesus Christ.

“The flesh loses its power over you when it is crucified. Christ’s power begins to reign. The worries and stress of this life leave. And you begin to have the peace that passes all understanding. Philippines 4:7 Amen! A crucified life! Hallelujah all praise to Jesus.” Karen Cochran

God’s plan for your life….here it is:

“I am crucified with Christ: nevertheless I live; yet not I, but Christ liveth in me: and the life which I now live in the flesh I live by the faith of the Son of God, who loved me, and gave himself for me.” Galatians 2:20

The ministry has put together 3 volumes sure to deepen your life in Christ, in the crucified life. 3 volumes to boost your life in Christ, in the cross He commanded us to take up – and by which He raises us upward in His glorious power and grace (Luke 9:23-24).

The Cross is a Surrender Not a Struggle [podcast]

The Cross is a Surrender not a Struggle Seems apparent that the struggle comes with living in the flesh, from resisting the surrender. In contrast, “the peace of God which passeth all understanding” comes from walking in the Spirit with Christ (Psalms 119:165; Galatians 5:22-23; Philippians 4:7). On the cross…. “And when Jesus had cried with a loud voice, he said, Father, into thy hands I commend my spirit: and having said thus, he gave up the ghost.” Luke 27:46 Then what happened? “He is not here: for HE IS RISEN, as he said. Come, see the place where the […]

Please beware of the diabolical, cheap substitutes such as various forms of perfection by way of self – the flesh. These are deadly […]
