“All In” Prayer

Ephesians. 5-6; Psalms 119; 1-80 

“And pray in the Spirit on all occasions with all kinds of prayers and requests. With this in mind, be alert and always keep on praying for all the saints.”

Ephesians 6:18

Praying in the Spirit is different than praying repetitiously or praying from our human perspective. Praying in the Spirit requires a life that is yielded and surrendered to him, being daily filled with the Spirit so that we become an instrument of intercession in his hands. The Spirit of God will prompt us to pray intercessory prayers, bold, authoritative prayers, and confession/repentance prayers. There are many varieties of prayers. The Spirit of God will always be praying in us like the candles that were always burning in the temple. As the Spirit prays in us and through us we are called to pray for all the saints. The Spirit will bring names and people to our thoughts throughout the day as a prompting to pray. Asking the Spirit how to pray for them will align our hearts with the Spirit. This is “all in” prayer.

“Lord Jesus, fill me with your Spirit again today, and teach me to live “all in” prayer.”
