Greetings in The Mighty Name of Jesus, The Christ!!!

The Responsibility Of Prayer

(pt 3)

 Proverbs 22:6 KJV

“ Train up a child in the way he should go: and when he is old, he will not depart from it."

Brothers and Sisters, I have Presented to you the Husband and Wives Responsibility Of Prayer and by that, it is part of the Training of Your Children to do every day. If you have not or are not Teaching Your Children How and What to their part is in Praying Every day, then as the above Scripture says, they will be that way, when they grow old!

This week’s message is on the Responsibility of the Children and for the Single Man and Woman. This first part of the message is to the Children, Parents, You need to be Teaching Them How to Pray.

Children, Boy’s and Girl’s you have a Responsibility to Pray every day and even throughout the day, by doing so, you Honor and Glorify Jesus and Honor Your Parents. So, let’s bring up some Questions of Why you need to Pray. Do you as a Child Understand What Prayer is? It is Communicating, Talking, to Jesus your Savior, whom you are making Him Lord over Your Life. Through Prayer We, all who are Saved, are Building a Relationship With God, (Father, Son and Holy Spirit) and one of these ways is by Talking to Jesus. I know in this day and age that there is more Texting, more Streaming that you use to Communicate to other people, but here, in Prayer, you need to put Your Electronic Devices aside and Learn to Pray.

Like your Parents, the First thing you need to do in the Morning, is get on your knees or lay prostrate, to Talk to Jesus, this is Humbling Yourself before Jesus. You are going to Talk with Jesus about Anything and Everything, Literally!

Matthew 18:2-5 KJV

"² And Jesus called a little child unto him, and set him in the midst of them, ³ And said, Verily I say unto you, Except ye be converted, and become as little children, ye shall not enter into the kingdom of heaven. ⁴ Whosoever therefore shall humble himself as this little child, the same is greatest in the kingdom of heaven. ⁵ And whoso shall receive one such little child in my name receiveth me."

Children Understand this, that How you are by nature in being Curious, Seeking Answers, Asking every Question under the sun and Receiving the Answers Humbly, is How every Born Again Believer is suppose to be, when Praying to Jesus. You, Children, should be a Constant Reminder on how we the Adults should be, when approaching Jesus.

But, now to get to Your Responsibility in Your Prayers.

Psalm 55:17 KJV

"Evening, and morning, and at noon, will I pray, and cry aloud: and he shall hear my voice."

You need to Pray every day in giving Thanks to Jesus for what He is doing in Your Life and for Your Blessings that you may receive. You can Thank Jesus for every little thing that touches Your Life, even for the Bad stuff as well.

You need to Pray for Your Parents that they will Teach you those things that will be needed in Your Adult Life. You need to Pray for Their Safety every day. You need to Thank Jesus for even Having them as Parents. Pray that they have a Peaceful day, fill with Joy!

You need to Pray for Your Brothers and Sisters if you have any, that they will be Safe, Kind and filled with Peace and Joy. Pray that you will have a Good Relationship with them.

You need to Pray for Your School, that you will Learn and Understand what they are trying to Teach you. Pray for your Teachers that they Present the Subject Matter in a way that you Understand it. Pray for Protection for your school and classmates. If you are in any School Actives, Pray that you do well in them, along with Praying for Your Teammates as well.

For the Older Children, start praying for Your Future Events. Pray for a Godly Girlfriend, even for a Godly Spouse. Pray that you will be Compatible, that is having the same Likes and Dislikes.

Pray about Anything and Everything, no matter How Small or How Big, no matter if it is Good or Bad Pray that Jesus Will be done In Your Life!

1 Thessalonians 5:17 KJV

"Pray without ceasing."

 Now from the Young Adult to the Elderly whom are Single, your Prayers are a combination of All The Prayers in these last three messages and a little more. Pray against Temptations that will be presented to you. Pray for Godly Friends that you and them may set Good Examples on How to Live.

Pray about Your Jobs, asking The Lord Jesus what He wants you to do in Life. Ask The Lord Jesus if College is in His Plans for you or not, then proceed in Faith

Pray for Your Spouse, that they be Godly, being Compatible having the same Likes and Dislikes. Be Detailed, like You Like Blonds not Brunets, You Desire Tall woman not Short, You Desire Skinny women not Medium, be Specific! Pray about having Children, so you can put Plans together for the event as The Lord Jesus Reveals.

Pray for Direction and Guidance in All Things.

Psalm 119:105 KJV

“NUN. Thy word [is] a lamp unto my feet, and a light unto my path."

Proverbs 3:5 KJV

“Trust in the LORD with all thine heart; and lean not unto thine own understanding."

 Pray Where to Live, there are many, many reason behind this prayer, it could affect the Job The Lord wants you to have or Your Spouse The Lord has for you  or the People You need to be an Example for and the list goes on. In any case, being single it is at this point that you need to look where to put roots down.

Pray that You Draw Closer to Jesus, that now that you are Saved By Grace, you need to Make Jesus Lord over Your Life in All Areas. Keeping this in mind as You Pray…

John 14:14-15 KJV

"¹⁴ If ye shall ask any thing in my name, I will do [it]. ¹⁵ If ye love me, keep my commandments."

When Praying, remember that there are a couple of things to keep in mind, one is that you can Pray asking for anything, but it has to be according to Jesus Will and second, you must be Walking or Trying to Walk in Obedience to His Word and Spirit. Jesus is Not a Magic Lamp!!!

Start Praying for Your Future Generations unto the Fourth Generation of Your Blood Line, that they would be Saved and if not that The Lord Jesus would send someone that they may have an Opportunity to do so and that they be Godly Walking in Obedience.

Learn to Pray about Everything, Before, During and After Anything. Be Detailed in Your Prayers Always. You are learning to Build upon Prayer as you were a child and from the Examples from Your Parents. Some of you may not have Examples from Parents,  so then, Ask Jesus to bring Mentors into Your Life that would show you Godly Examples for you. My parents did not believe and because of that Jesus put Godly Mentors in My Life to Learn From.

Also, when you Pray, remember it is a Two Way Street, that is, it is Good that you Pray about Everything, but you need to Listen and Obey Everything The Holy Spirit and Jesus tells you, it is Not a One Sided Relationship with Jesus!!!

Pray for Your Family, Friends, Enemies, that they come to Know Jesus as Their Savior.

This is the Model Prayer that Jesus gave to us, that Points on what we need to Ask…

Matthew 6:9-13 KJV

"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."

 There are all kinds of Prayer that can be done, from Warfare to Praise, but in these three messages these are the Basics that every Born Again Believer needs to include in Their Prayers Every Day, 7 Days a Week, no matter what else is going on in Your Life. You need to Learn to put Jesus First before you start your day, this is part of what makes Jesus Lord. Read The Word, there are all kinds of Examples on Prayer. Last but not least, Pray for the Peace Of Israel!!

Amen and Amen!!!
