All I have needed Thy hand hath provided
Great is Thy faithfulness, Lord, unto me

FIRE SCRIPTURE:1 John 1:1-8 [KJV]

1 That which was from the beginning, which we have heard, which we have seen with our eyes, which we have looked upon, and our hands have handled, of the Word of life;

2 (For the life was manifested, and we have seen it, and bear witness, and shew unto you that eternal life, which was with the Father, and was manifested unto us;)

3 That which we have seen and heard declare we unto you, that ye also may have fellowship with us: and truly our fellowship is with the Father, and with his Son Jesus Christ.

4 And these things write we unto you, that your joy may be full.

5 This then is the message which we have heard of him, and declare unto you, that God is light, and in him is no darkness at all.

6 If we say that we have fellowship with him, and walk in darkness, we lie, and do not the truth:

7 But if we walk in the light, as he is in the light, we have fellowship one with another, and the blood of Jesus Christ his Son cleanseth us from all sin.

8 If we say that we have no sin, we deceive ourselves, and the truth is not in us.

MEMORY VERSE:
“For the wages of sin is death; but the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord.” – Romans 6:23

09-05-23 MESSAGE:

Today, we will continue the discourse on the conditions for getting prayer answered. If you have any unconfessed sin in your life, your prayer will never be answered. Our Fire Scripture says, “If we say that we have no sin, we deceive ourselves and the truth is not in us” (1 John 1:8).

Here John is emphasising sin, not just as a matter of God-defying actions but as a basic principle or trait in human nature. This could be as a reason of those who claim that sin does not exist as a principle or power in human nature, or those who say that their evil actions are not really sin. This erroneous and deceptive belief is still with us today.

Dearly beloved, to have your prayers answered, you must own up to your sin and then go further by confessing it to God. Therefore, we deceive ourselves if we say that we have no sin. The Psalmist said, “If we regard iniquity in our hearts, the Lord will not hear us.” So our lives must be free from the thoughts of sin; we must not allow sin to dwell in our hearts and hinder answers to our prayers.

Those who take pleasure in things that go against the commands and standards of God’s word should not expect Him to answer their prayers. God wants us to separate ourselves from sin and all forms of ungodly behaviour. Only then can we experience the benefits of His special favour and power in our lives.

Sin makes us to become persona-non-grata in the presence of God and that alone makes our prayer an abomination to God. Have you been struggling to have answers to your prayers? You need to check yourself, live a life free of sin and God will visit you. Also, if there is sin in your life, confess it and turn away from it.

PRAYER POINTS:

MORNING

1. Father, give me the grace to live a sinless life, in the name of Jesus.

2. Spirit of carnality, depart from my life, in the name of Jesus.

3. Power to abide in Christ always, possess me, in the name of Jesus.

EVENING

1. O Lord, help me to be who You want me to be, in the name of Jesus.

2. Arrows of the fowler targeted at me, backfire, in the name of Jesus.

3. Grace that is sufficient for my journey on earth, possess my life, in the name of Jesus.

4. Holy Spirit of God, overshadow my life, in the name of Jesus.
