Where Prayers Go To Die
Greetings Saints of the Most High God!
The Lord is worthy to be praised!
Before we get started let me ask you something: Have you ever wondered why you seem to be running in place? Or why your prayers are going unanswered?
I know I have.
What is the problem or what is the hold up? You might not see it, but God is trying to tell you something.
The message I am about to share with you is one that will change generations forever. A lot of times we think we know the Word or we think we know God but we don't. God is ready to show you another side of Him today through his Word. If you are ready now, He will take you to the root of the problem.....Where prayers go to die. Let's get started!
Message Original Date: July 18, 2017
Messenger: Chief Apostle H.C. Gunn
Scripture References: 2 Chronicles 7:12-14
You've got to humble yourselves as God's people. Your plans and your way don't work.
Turn with me to 2 Chronicles 7:14. Part of the verse says, "If my people, which are called by my name, shall humble themselves, and pray."
Why did I only share part of that verse? Because that's the place where we stop. We pray and think that's good enough and that's the only thing we have to do. But this is the very place we have been stuck for so long.
If I had had a text for this message it would be, "Where Prayers Go To Die." Where do you think Ezekiel found himself: in a valley of dead prayers.
You say, "I'm praying" ... but are you seeking God's face? Saints, there is a warning that has been sent out because we've stopped seeking his face. We are seeking money, a man/woman, fame, a new job, food, a lie, and everything else. .. but God.
You can write it, you can sing it, talk about, but it means nothing if you don't live it. That's why our prayers die on the vine because we aren't coming for Jesus.
You've got to want him. You've got to know him as Savior. You've got to be sold out to Christ. Nothing else will do children, you've got to be found in him. The Lord said: "Go after my way of doing things."
I don't know about you, but I feel the Holy Ghost right now moving in this Word. His Word is true. He said: "you've got to turn from your wicked ways! Turn away from lying. Turn from adultery. Turn from vengeance. Turn from unforgiveness."
Stop spending time with people who you know are wicked. Cut those dead conversations. Watch out for those Facebook traps. Do not return that message. I'm talking to you.
Yeah, they may come talking about Jesus but there's a dead cat on the line. Let me tell you something: the Spirit of God will pinpoint exactly what your wicked ways are so you can repent, turn, and get free.
Pray and ask God: "Lord what are the top 10 of my wicked ways?" You need to know what is stopping your prayers.
Known sin stops God from moving for you. God is making you responsible...it's in the turn. The difference has got to be made in order for your prayers to manifest.
I'm closing with this: After the Lord gave me this Word, I began to repent for all the prayers I should have prayed and for all the people I didn't pray for. You can take this Word lightly if you want to .... Because it's up to you whether your prayers live or die.
Well, that's all for now. I love you and I'm praying for you!!
