Psalm 91:11
Angels Hearken to the Voice of His Word
October 27, 2015
MAIN POINT
The problems we have today are not going to be able to be solved on the same level they were created I believe what he was saying was that “level one problems” would not be solved with “level one solutions.” That the natural problems we have today have their answer on another level, in the spiritual or supernatural realm. Every problem has an answer…and prayer is one of the main ways we access these answers to change what seems like impossible circumstances on earth. When we were kids we were taught to pray this way just before we went to bed at night, “Now I lay me down to sleep, I pray the Lord my soul to keep. If I should die before I awake, I pray the Lord my soul to take.” I know this prayer sounds spiritual and sincere, but let’s examine it, not according to tradition, but in light of the Word of God.
First, effective prayer must be based on God’s Word. When I’d say, “. . . If I should die before I wake. . . ,” this leaves me vulnerable to the “grimreaper” (Satan) creeping in my room and taking my life any time he feels like it, which is unscriptural and a lie from the pit of hell.
God has promised every child of God long life. In other words, I have something to say about when I leave this earth, and how I leave this earth. Because Jesus, by His blood, paid the price for my complete redemption, I don’t have to leave this life on earth sick, decrepit and broke
As a Kingdom citizen, you may even be living in tough times. Well, you are never without security. We have angels (Covenant Enforcing Agents) assigned to us personally to protect us while we are awake or asleep, from all hurt, harm, accidents, and danger (Psalm 91).
So, why would I say, “If I should die before I wake?” The Bible says, “. . . angels hearken to the voice of His Word.” The Word says, “There shall no evil befall you…” Let me give you the Message Bible translation, “Evil can’t get close to you…He has ordered His angels to guard you wherever you go” (Psalm 91:11).
- Prayer is a weapon that guarantees winning results. (Eph. 6:12)
- The enemy fears every Believer who prays.
- Our warfare cannot be in the realm of what we can see or feel in this natural realm (Acts 16:25-26)
- We must elevate this battle to another level in order to be successful
- Prayer changes things . . . not God
- Prayer is not trying to get God’s attention, or trying to get God to do something. Prayer is communicating with God – believing and receiving what He has given to us and has already done for us in Jesus
- Prayer starts with the answer, which is the Word of God.
- The root of every failure in a Believer’s life or ministry can be traced back to a prayer failure (II Kings 19:6-7; II Kings 19:14-15
- Remember, the Word of God is God’s part of our prayer life (Jeremiah 1:12 NASB)
- God will always do what He promised (II Kings 19:20)
- Every Kingdom blessing is first received spiritually before it is delivered practically (I John 5:14-15)
- Prayer is the foundation for every Christian endeavor:
- Prayer is where the battles are fought and won:
- What was the result of Hezekiah’s prayer (II Kings 19:35)
- When we pray, by faith we believe we received, and go to bed and get some rest.
- Prayer as a priority to release the power of God and manifest His will in your situation right here on earth, as it is in heaven.

4.15.15 A Note from the Apostle’s Desk: Prayer & Fasting on 4.17.15
Hello Saints of God,
Greetings to you all in the matchless and powerful name of Jesus the Christ: This Friday April 17, 2015 from 6am to 6pm let us enter into a corporate fast toghether (NO FOOD) and then come together from 6pm to 7pm for a time of corporate praying at KCM’s sanctuary. We know that fasting is not a tool to twist the arm of God so that He will give you exactly what you want. Fasting has a spiritual purpose, and that purpose is to get your flesh out of the way so that the Spirit of God can move in your life. Fasting removes the barriers to communication with God and allows the spirit man to commune directly with the heavenly Father – without disturbance. When a person makes a determination to fast, they are making a determination to remove the obstacles in their life to total submission to the will of God. No wonder Satan is determined to eradicate this practice! Fasting tears down his strongholds. Fasting clears the way for our victory. Satan will do anything to prevent that.
In 2 Chronicles 20: 1-5 the Message Bible states “1 Some time later the Moabites and Ammonites, accompanied by Meunites, joined forces to make war on Jehoshaphat.
2 Jehoshaphat received this intelligence report: “A huge force is on its way from beyond the Dead Sea to fight you. There’s no time to waste—they’re already at Hazazon Tamar, the oasis of En Gedi.” 3 Shaken, Jehoshaphat prayed. He went to GOD for help and ordered a nationwide fast. 4 The country of Judah united in seeking GOD’s help—they came from all the cities of Judah to pray to GOD.
Whenever we face a severe crisis in life, we need either a way to escape the crisis or the inner strength and knowledge to conquer the crisis. But many times we have no means of escape and no clue how to deal with the emergency or predicament. It is then more than ever that we need the help of someone who has the power or resources to deliver us from the crisis. The crisis may be due to an accident, illness, death, a criminal act, war, a work related matter, or some failure on our part.
But no matter what crises we may face, there is wonderful news. There is Someone who has the power and resources to deliver us, Someone who can make a way for us to escape.
This Someone is God Himself. This is clearly seen in the story of the present Scripture.
2 Chronicles 20:27-28 (MSG)
27 Jehoshaphat then led all the men of Judah and Jerusalem back to Jerusalem—an exuberant parade. GOD had given them joyful relief from their enemies!
28 They entered Jerusalem and came to The Temple of GOD with all the instruments of the band playing.
Unexpectedly and shockingly, Jehoshaphat faced the crisis of his life, that of an invasion by a coalition of three powerful nations. Standing all alone, the Southern Kingdom of Judah faced the distinct possibility that it would be utterly destroyed as a nation and taken over by foreigners. Only one hope for escape and deliverance existed. That hope was in the Lord and His mighty power.
I decree and declare that the enemy is defeated, and every KCM child of God is released now. Let those who hold on to my breakthrough longer than they should be shaken until they release it right now into my hands. I command you Satan, to “cough it up,” spit it out, loose it, release it, and let it go, now! In Jesus’ name!
Let us all fast together Friday April 17, 2015 from 6a – 6pm (NO FOOD). Then at 6pm let us all come together in the Sanctuary for prayer and confession of the WORD for our SPIRITUAL BREAKTHROUGH.
