PRAYING GOD'S WILL | SATAN DEFEATED (2)

1. Praying God's Will

a) What should you pray for? Scripture is clear that you should pray God's word. At the same time, you must never forget that God is sovereign and that He is not obligated to a name-it-and-claim-it theology. God will always do what is best. But at the same time you will do well to understand that when you pray God's word, you are actually praying both the mind and the perfect will of God for yourself.

b) If you follow a systematic plan of praying God's will, you will see dynamic growth take place in your life. You will become the man God intended you to be.

2. Satan Defeated

Heavenly Father, my enemy is Satan. He wants to destroy me. But God, Your word is stronger than even Satan and that is what I pray. I pray Your word that I will defeat every attack of Satan in my life. God, please honor the praying of Your word to the defeat of Satan in my life. Thank You, God, in the powerful name of Jesus. Amen.
