PRAYER STORM MEDIA

Effective Prayers from 7 Modern-Day Prophets

Do you want to pray a perfect prayer that the Father cannot refuse? Pray the Word of God. I asked Cindy Jacobs, Patricia King, Stacey Campbell, Lou Engle, Mickey Robinson and Beth Alves which scriptures they pray regularly, and they served up a gold mine that I couldn't help but pass on to you. Here is how it happened.


Recently I was attending a prophetic roundtable in Dallas, Texas where a few prophetic leaders from the nations gather on a relational basis each year to hear from the Lord. It is one of the highlights of the year for me. At the close of the gathering, Cindy Jacobs of Generals International and I started chatting about things close to our hearts. I asked Cindy what scriptures she prays regularly. Wow! A wellspring of life just started pouring out of her.


She quickly cited several scriptures to me from her heart. On the other side of the table was our mutual friend and prophetess of years, Beth Alves. She also seemed to spring to life and started reciting some of the verses she prays everyday. It was a short but special moment we shared together.


It hit the jackpot and I knew it! I turned to Cindy and asked her, “Would you give me permission to write up some of this into an article on Scriptures the Prophets Pray?” Well, of course, the three of us were in agreement. I have now expanded this to 7 diverse prophetic friends (including myself) from whom I have gleaned some key verses that they have prayed regularly for years. So from that initial conversation has come: Effective Prayers from 7 Modern-Day Prophets.


As you read these Scripture verses you will find that they reflect the burden, gifting and calling that each one carries. Amazingly, out of the 7 prophets I sought out – no one gave me the same verse – though we each love all 21 verses!


Scriptures Prayed by 7 Diverse Prophets:

The glory which You have given Me I have given to them, that they may be one, just as We are one; I in them and You in Me, that they may be perfected in unity, so that the world may know that You sent Me, and loved them, even as You have loved Me. Father, I desire that they also, whom You have given Me, be with Me where I am, so that they may see My glory which You have given Me, for You loved Me before the foundation of the world.”

Revelation 19:10 – "Then I fell at his feet to worship him. But he said to me, 'Do not do that; I am a fellow servant of yours and your brethren who hold the testimony of Jesus; worship God. For the testimony of Jesus is the spirit of prophecy.'"


Yes, My Word is Alive and Active!

"My Word is alive and active." This phrase of course comes from Hebrews 4:12. But recently I had a visitation where the “glory of the Lord” appeared in my living room from floor to the ceiling as a cylinder of His presence as amber colors swirled around. A DNA ladder appeared in its midst as the entire element was rotating. Then a voice came from the pillar and stated, “My Word is Alive and Active!” I heard it over and over, again and again.

There is life in the Bible. It is the only book that when you read it – it reads you! Meditate on the Word. Love the Scriptures. God’s plan, purposes and ways are taught in this precious book. There will be a revival of the Word of God!

I recently posted these two paragraphs as my first decree in 7 Declarations for 5776 & Beyond! So the voice of the Lord continues to speak to each of us – “My Word is Alive and Active!”


Two Verses ALL the Prophets Pray!

As I interacted with these friends of mine, I found that we all highly esteem and love the Word of God. When I shared each of these verses with the others, I was delighted to find that they all exclaimed, “Oh yes, and that one too!” What fun!

In our dialogue, two verses seemed to emerge that we all prayed. The first, of course, is the Lord’s Model Prayer that Jesus taught His disciples to pray. So let’s close out by rehearsing these two glorious scripture based prayers.

Matthew 6:9-13 – "Pray, then, in this way: ‘Our Father who is in heaven, Hallowed be Your name. Your kingdom come. Your will be done, on earth as it is in heaven. Give us this day our daily bread. And forgive us our debts, as we also have forgiven our debtors. And do not lead us into temptation, but deliver us from evil. [For Yours is the kingdom and the power and the glory forever. Amen.]'"

The second one that everyone agreed on was the amazing statement from Isaiah concerning a last days invasion of God’s glorious presence.

Isaiah 60:1-3 – "Arise, shine; for your light has come, and the glory of the LORD has risen upon you. For behold, darkness will cover the earth and deep darkness the peoples; but the LORD will rise upon you and His glory will appear upon you. Nations will come to your light, and kings to the brightness of your rising."

Let’s take some simple lessons from these tried and tested leaders and pray the Word of God. Do you want to pray in accordance with the will of God? Then pray His Word. I have 7 prophetic friends of God who do. How about you?
