Develop a High-Octane Prayer Life

Developing a High-Octane Prayer Ministry

As Christians we go before the actual throne of God, not in symbol, but in reality, it is there that we have audience with the God of the universe.

Heb 10:19 ¶ Therefore, brethren, since we have confidence to enter the holy
place by the blood of Jesus, 20 by a new and living way which He inaugurated for
us through the veil, that is, His flesh, 21 and since we have a great
priest over the house of God, 22 let us draw near with a sincere heart in
full assurance of faith, having our hearts sprinkled clean from an evil
conscience and our bodies washed with pure water. 23 Let us hold fast the
confession of our hope without wavering, for He who promised is faithful;

Isaiah's vision should have the same effect on us it had on him, he saw and told us what effect it had on him, we can read not only this but many more assurances that tell us this is a truly awesome experience and privilege.

Isa 6:1 ¶ In the year of King Uzziah's death I saw the Lord sitting on a throne,
lofty and exalted, with the train of His robe filling the temple. 2
Seraphim stood above Him, each having six wings: with two he covered his face,
and with two he covered his feet, and with two he flew. 3 And one called
out to another and said, "Holy, Holy, Holy, is the LORD of hosts, The whole
earth is full of His glory." 4 And the foundations of the thresholds
trembled at the voice of him who called out, while the temple was filling with
smoke. 5 ¶ Then I said, "Woe is me, for I am ruined! Because I am a man of
unclean lips, And I live among a people of unclean lips; For my eyes have seen
the King, the LORD of hosts." 6 Then one of the seraphim flew to me with a
burning coal in his hand, which he had taken from the altar with tongs. 7
He touched my mouth with it and said, "Behold, this has touched your lips; and
your iniquity is taken away and your sin is forgiven." 8 Then I heard the
voice of the Lord, saying, "Whom shall I send, and who will go for Us?" Then I
said, "Here am I. Send me!"

Now seeing that we are encompassed about by such a great cloud of witnesses we are truly blessed to have this knowledge of the Holy One we can with assurance offer prayers as the writer of Hebrews says.

Heb 12:1 ¶ Wherefore seeing we also are compassed about with so great a cloud of
witnesses, let us lay aside every weight, and the sin which doth so easily beset
us, and let us run with patience the race that is set before us,

We have assurance that the Lord of Hosts answers our prayers offered with a sincere heart sprinkled clean with the blood of Christ, to not believe it is so, is to trample "under foot the Son of God."

Heb 10:29 How much severer punishment do you think he will deserve who has
trampled under foot the Son of God, and has regarded as unclean the blood of the
covenant by which he was sanctified, and has insulted the Spirit of grace?

Ps 91:9 ¶ For you have made the LORD, my refuge, [Even] the Most High, your
dwelling place. 10 No evil will befall you, Nor will any plague come near your
tent. 11 For He will give His angels charge concerning you, To guard you in all
your ways. 12 They will bear you up in their hands, Lest you strike your foot
against a stone. 13 You will tread upon the lion and cobra, The young lion and
the serpent you will trample down. 14 "Because he has loved Me, therefore I will
deliver him; I will set him [securely] on high, because he has known My name. 15

him behold My salvation."

we keep His commandments and do the things that are pleasing in His
sight.
