Are you bittered with yourself or someone else? Do you find it very difficult to forgive that fellow who offended you? There is a way out if only you can step back and talk to God about it. The prayer for overcoming bitterness will guide you to pray using appropriate scriptures. However, before you pray, it is important that you understand a few things about bitterness. The first among these is that bitterness is a ‘poison’ – a poison designed by the enemy to terminate your life (Rom 3:...

Prayer for overcoming Rejection

Posted by Joseph Iwaye on Saturday, May 6, 2017, In : Prayers 

The under listed prayer points are scripture based prayers that can help you to break shackles of rejection.

Have you suffered any form of rejection lately? Do you feel so dejected, hopeless and sad? I have good news for you – God is waiting and ready to help (Ps 46:1).

Prayer for courage

Posted by Joseph Iwaye on Saturday, December 3, 2016, In : Prayers 
Courage is the innate capacity to do what is right when everyone around you is doing the opposite. Courage gives you the ability to proclaim Christ when others are denying him. Taking a brief look brief at the scripture, I found out that courage can give you the zeal, the boldness and the strength to fulfill your God-given destiny (Deut. 31:7, 1Chr. 22:13). Courage can energise you to kill your Goliath and thereby announce you to the world (like the case of David). Courage can take you from o...

Posted by Joseph Iwaye on Monday, February 15, 2016, In : Christian Devotions 

man in the wilderness
A wilderness experience is not palatable. Many at times you go through unpleasant situations and endure a lot of discomfort, trials and temptations. You pray and it seems as if prayers are not answered. Then you begin to ask series of questions – why am I in this situation? Why is God not doing this or that? Because you couldn’t find the right answers, you become frustrated both physically, spiritually and emotionally. As a believer, if you are in this kind of situation for too long, you ...

Prayer for Divine Wisdom

Posted by Joseph Iwaye on Friday, October 4, 2013, In : Prayers 

a man praying for divine wisdomGod is an embodiment of wisdom. Wisdom begins and ends with Him. God is wiser than any man. The Omnipotent is wiser than any diviner. God is far more knowledgeable than any professor; He’s wiser than any scientist. When God think He has acted foolishly, his decisions are wiser than those of wisest men (1Corrithians 1:25). God gives wisdom (Proverbs 2:6) to everyone, but divine wisdom He reserves to those who earnestly desire it and ask for it. Solomon asked for divine wisdom and he ...

Prayer for Divine Help

Posted by Joseph Iwaye on Thursday, December 20, 2012, In : Prayers 

We all need divine assistance in running the race of life. Human effort is limited but the power of God is limitless. Whatever situation we face as children of God, it is the desire of our father (God) to help us. The Lord has promised to help us (Isaiah 41:13). He is a faithful God. He will not disappoint any of his children who cry unto him for help (Psalm 34:17). Beloved, if you truly need divine help, you need to set time apart to pray these prayer points and pray them passionately...

Prayer of Blessing - Bible Based Prayer of Blessing

Posted by Joseph Iwaye on Wednesday, August 15, 2012, In : Prayers 

Prayer of blessings should be an integral part of everyone seeking to prosper in this evil world. Why? Because it is the desire of God to bless his children and not just to bless them but to also make them a channel of blessing unto others (Genesis 12:2). Blessing is the opposite of curse. While God desires to bless his children, the enemy secretly pronounce curse upon them to bring them down. That is why some Christians find it difficult to move forward in spite of every effort to do ...

Divine strength is the power we need for living. It is the desire of God to strengthen us (Psalm 29:11), but the plan of the devil is to weaken the children of God. When you are weak and weary because of the challenges of life, you need to call on God for divine strength. When God has blessed you so much that you can’t even cope with the workload required of you, you need divine strength as well. When troubles and trials seem to overwhelm you, you need the help of the Most High to st...

Prayer can control the element of nature such as the Sun, the Wind, the Rain, etc. Let us stop complaining about natural disaster; instead let’s bombard the throne of heaven with prayers. Elijah prayed to affect and control the element of nature.
