Prayer is much more powerful than many appreciate. Most importantly, prayer is about connection with God. When we connect with God, we are connecting with the very power of heaven itself.

When we pray, we also provide a connection point for heaven to enter the earth. We are the conduit for the power of heaven to be unleashed on this hurting world. You can literally bring God’s grace and mercy into situations to help turn lives around as you loose people to experience His goodness.

But more than that, our prayers can actually enforce the will of God in our world. After all, that's part of how Jesus taught us to pray, “Your kingdom come, Your will be done, on earth as it is in heaven.” As your prayers come against evil in your world, you are binding up the strongman as you come against the enemy’s schemes.

Therefore our payers have the power and ability to change things so they line up with the Kingdom of God. That makes prayer both an incredible privilege, and an awesome responsibility.

How will you bring heaven to your world today?

Therefore pray in this manner:Our Father who is in heaven,hallowed be Your name.Your kingdom come;Your will be doneon earth, as it is in heaven. — Matthew 6:9-10 (MEV)
