è Review: The Purpose and Power of Prayer

• Living contact; partnership vehicle; vehicle of change

• Need Revelation: His Love, intimate involvement in our lives; His authority

• Align and enforce:

• Stay in balance …. Keep focus on the Lord!

• True: real enemy (John 10:10; 1 Peter 5:8, 9; Ephesians 6:10-18; James 4:7

• Not True: devil knows everything; demons are omnipresent; “demon inspectors”

è Covering Prayer: What is it? The prayers of spiritual oversight or prayer partners on your behalf.

• The heart of the matter: shepherding; watching over another (feeding, leading, encouraging, protecting)

• Examples: Old Testament priests and prophets were often consulted, even by kings in difficult life situations; Jesus (John 17); Paul repeatedly in his letters to churches and pastors; John in John 3:2

• Revelation; protection; deeper personal knowledge of Him; health; prosperity; well-being; spiritual transfer of gifting and power.

• Are you under spiritual covering??? (1 Thessalonians 5:12, 13; Hebrews 13:16, 17)

• Impartation to you! (See Revelation 1:5, 6)
