Lessons Learned from Hezekiah on Prayer
The Assyrian king was busy subduing nation after nation when he sent a letter to Hezekiah. The gist of the letter was this; Hezekiah, don't think for one minute that your little god is going to save you from me. I will remind you that Assyria has dominated every other nation in this part of the world. None of their gods saved them and your god won't save you. So Hezekiah went to prayer.
What can we learn from Hezekiah?
- In his time of need, his prayer was immediate, not an afterthought.
- He got alone with God.
- He was transparent and open with the Lord.
- His prayer was humble and respectful.
- His prayer showed dependence on God.
- His prayer was bold.
- His prayer was based on personal faith and trust in God.
What situations are you dealing with today that you know you are helpless to do on your own and you desperately need God to answer? Get alone with God, spread your needs out before Him honestly, humbly and boldly and then allow Him to work in your situation, as you wait for His response.
Have a blessed week.

"And Elijah said unto Ahab, Get thee up, eat and drink; for there is a sound of abundance of rain. So Ahab went up to eat and to drink. And Elijah went up to the top of Carmel; and he cast himself down upon the earth, and put his face between his knees, And said to his servant, Go up now, look toward the sea. And he went up, and looked, and said, There is nothing. And he said, Go again seven times. And it came to pass at the seventh time, that he said, Behold, there ariseth a little cloud out of the sea, like a man's hand. And he said, Go up, say unto Ahab, Prepare thy chariot, and get thee down, that the rain stop thee not. And it came to pass in the mean while, that the heaven was black with clouds and wind, and there was a great rain. And Ahab rode, and went to Jezreel. And the hand of the Lord was on Elijah; and he girded up his loins, and ran before Ahab to the entrance of Jezreel"
(I Kings 18:41-46).
The power God has given you in prayer is without measure! In the preceding verses, Elijah killed the prophets of Baal, said a 63 word prayer, and the waterlogged sacrifice was consumed by fire from heaven!
How great and powerful are your prayers? They will move mountains, heal the sick, change the hearts of those losing hope, and turn the tide of nature!
Elijah spoke in faith telling Ahab that he was to go and eat, for Elijah said, "for there is a sound of abundance of rain,"
then he put his face between his knees and in faith waited for the greatness of heaven to shine!
His path for us is clear to accomplish:
- Challenge the enemy and put him in his place!
- Speak faith of what you will see happen.
- Declare in anticipation what you see the Lord Jesus Christ doing!
- Then, sit, pray, and wait for the cloud to show!
- The impossible may be only 63 words of prayer away!

It is imperative that we pray for evangelists. We will focus on praying for evangelists each week. The
Evangelist Ministry recognizes and promotes the Biblical role of evangelist as stated in Ephesians 4:11-12, "And he gave some, apostles; and some, prophets; and some, evangelists; and some, pastors and teachers; For the perfecting of the saints, for the work of the ministry, for the edifying of the body of Christ." The Evangelist Ministry is dedicated to preaching the gospel and effectively ministering by partnering with pastors worldwide to gather vision, faith, and harvest, saving the lost, and edifying the church. Pastors can confidently book a licensed, enrolled evangelist that will bless their church. Doug Klinedinst
is the ministry coordinator.
This week let's pray for all evangelists!
