The Prayers Of the Holy Spirit: (Ephesians 1:16- 20) "I cease not to give thanks for you, making mention of you in my prayers, That the God of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of glory, may give unto you the spirit of wisdom and revelation in the knowledge of him: the eyes of your understanding being enlightened; that you may know what is the hope of his colon, and what the riches of the glory of his inheritance in the saints, And what is the exceeding greatness of his power to usward who believe, according to the working of his mighty power, Which he wrought in Christ, when he raised him from the dead, and set him at his own right hand in the heavenly places. Far above our principalities and powers, and might, and dominion, and every name that is named, not only in this age but also in that which is to come;" years ago, I prayed these prayers twice a day, morning and evening, for a family member. He needed healing desperately, yet he couldn't seem to grasp what the Bible teaches about divine healing. When I prayed, I inserted this person's name in the prayers as I had previously inserted my own. Within 10 days, he wrote me, saying, "I'm beginning to see things I never saw before." The minute you get scriptural, things happen. It was surprising how fast my kinfolks change once I started praying for them scripturally. I had been praying for some of them for years with no results. (Ephesians 6:12) "For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world. Against spiritual wickedness in high places." Thank God we have authority over such evil spirits through Jesus Christ. We need to understand what Paul said here in the light of what he wrote in previous chapter. We need to realize that we have authority through Christ Jesus. Our combat with the devil always should be with the consciousness that we have authority over him because he is a defeated foe--- the Lord Jesus Christ defeated him for us. However, the authority of the believer is an aspect of the Christian walk that few believers know much about. Something that authority over the devil belongs to only a few chosen people to whom God has given special power. It doesn't; it belongs to all the children of God ! We received this authority when we all born again or re-created in Christ Jesus. As we all made new creatures in Christ Jesus, we inherit the Name of the Lord Jesus Christ, and we can use it in prayer against the enemy. But the devil and demons don't want believers to learn about the authority of the believer. He wants to continue to defeat us in our time he wants.
