10:11 Me Jesus loves [Music] me the B tells me so amen I want to uh share a brief word with you on prayer somebody say prayer the mysteries of prayer he we are fasting I hope you are fasting today as well yeah one meal ends today ask your neighbor why do you look so strong are you fasting or you fisting

10:59 if you don't fast you are going to miss out on a great blessing amen of Christianity and your relationship with Jesus and so this is we are finished day seven today of fasting if you have been eating for seven days you have lost seven days of your destiny shal how many of you speak in tongues show me hey all the others they don't speak in tongues Mercy today you must speak in

11:45 tongues when you speak in tongues it means the Holy Spirit has come on you on a new dimension the tongues we speak are not fake sh it's not a fake thing is Holy Ghost amen so we are continuing in our fast today at 4 we are going to pray we are going to be in church and pray but I want you to understand why you must pray and the Mystery of prayer prayer is mysterious and that is why a lot of people don't pray because the the mystery of prayer what the word mystery means um a riddle a riddle

12:30 it means an enigma something you cannot be able to explain the word uh mystery also means a problem not easily what you can't easily understand a mystery so when we say God is mysterious it means that you cannot understand God he's a puzzle yeah the word is puzzle and that is why a lot of people shy away from spiritual things because you find them as a puzzle something you cannot understand and there is nothing we can do about it God is a puzzle that

13:17 is why your walk with God becomes interesting because you are always trying to solve a riddle to know him to know him deeper to know him better and if you don't want to know him better you are missing out on something very very important so look at your neighbor tell your neighbor God is a mystery oh yes does your neighbor understand what you're saying look at another neighbor who's more friendlier and tell them God is a mystery God hey your neighbor is not talking to you at all maybe you should change your neighbor tell your neighbor

14:04 neighbor God is a mystery Revelations chapter 10 and verse 7 Revelations chap 10 and verse 7 the bible says but in the days of the sounding of the seven Angel when he's about to sound the mystery of God would be finished it looks like the mystery about God will only end when Jesus comes back otherwise you will keep having God as a mystery some somebody that you cannot know fully you can't figure him out amen because you wonder God is's so powerful he's so great he's so mighty

14:51 but why does he want us to pray because prayer is also a mystery amen yeah tell your neighbor God is a mystery prayer is also a mystery amen the scripture says that the mystery of God will be finished in the days of the voice of the seventh angel until then we are going to have to navigate our lives through the mysteries of God we are going to navigate through the mysteries of God now it is because of the mystery that surrounds God that a lot of people do not pray a lot of people do not pray we are

15:39 fasting and praying so that we can draw closer to God you see the way some people were under the power of God it is because of their hunger for God some of you you are just standing there like sto like nothing you want somebody is happening here you you are nothing is happening to you because you have no passion and a desire for God but when you become someone who has a hunger and a thirst for God you begin to unravel the mysteries of God Amen so let's look at what is the mystery around prayer would you like to know something about the mystery of prayer it's just a short sermon noting uh someon that I'm giving

16:25 you so that is that it seems that God God can only do what we ask it seems God will not act unless we pray it's like God is there in your life but he cannot move until you open your mouth and pray Mercy he's all powerful he is allmighty but he cannot move until you pray now if you read Genesis chapter 20

17:10 Genesis chapter 20 there's a story there of Abraham verse 3-7 about a man called aimc in the dreams of the night God appeared to him you know the story of the king who um asked if Sarah if he could take Sarah and Abraham said Sarah is my sister and then the king took Sarah because she was so beautiful God came to him in the night and told him you are a dead man he said God came to aimc in the in a Dream by night and said to him indeed you are a dead man can you

17:56 imagine I'm sure some of you have I've never read this part and he said you are dead because of the woman that you have taken for she is a man's wife some of you you have been fornicating and God is telling you you are a dead man so verse four the Bible says but aimc had not come near her had not touched at least he had not touched her and he said Lord will you slay a righteous Nation also verse 5 but did he

18:42 not say to me she is my sister and she even she herself said he's my brother in the Integrity of my heart and the innocence of my hands I have done this like I've have not touched this person from any like I was cleaning my heart they said they were sisters and I liked a girl so I did this in the Integrity of my heart and God said to him in a dream yes I know that you did this in the Integrity of your heart but I also withheld you from sinning against me therefore I do not let you touch her thank you Jesus now therefore restore the man's wife for

19:27 he's a prophet and he will pray for you underline he will pray for you and he will pray for you and you shall leave so you see the mystery is that God is speaking to aimc and God can easily say okay you just return the woman and and but God says to the man even after you return the wife let the man pray for for you so that you shall live that's a mystery it's a mystery it's like I have I know you did not do it willingly it was a mistake but nevertheless let the

20:13 man pray for you so it looks like God cannot do certain things until you pray does it make sense so assuming that you are Kevin come with your seat assuming you are Kevin and you're living your life sit here and you're living your life you don't pray you are like the way you are right now quiet sleeping sleep 4 a.m. you you are sleeping

21:18 yeah you are sleeping you are not talking to God about your future you are not talking to God about your marriage you are not talking talking to God about your education you are not talking to God about your health you are not you are not talking to God about anything so God you know assuming um who can be God now past God acting on anything do you understand

22:05 then demons are frustrating your life hey not all of me hey you guys relax relax relax him but don't be too hard on him we are acting quietly so that I can preach so demons are harassing you but God is there he's just looking at you God is just looking at you being harassed can you don't show me show can

22:51 you show can you see him how can you see him okay go up take him up harass him up take the seat up cover him cover him he's sleeping but demons are harassing you you are masturbating bad dreams you are eating in the sleep you can't get

23:40 married hey then you come and we tell you it's prayer time you need to learn how to pray you need to wake up and pray then he wakes up to pray wake up to pray pray just start praying slowly because you don't know how to pray much just ask the Lord for help ask the Lord for help in start praying as you start praying it is only legal time that God is committed now to come as you keep on praying God is coming into your rescue otherwise God will not come until

24:27 you start to pray that's a mystery as he continues to pray God is now strengthening him yeah now he's receiving strength rise up rise up God is giving you strength to rise up yeah throw the blankets away throw the blankets away start praying moving around praying praying walking around walking around walking around as long as you're praying God is committed to be with you but when you stop praying and you decide to rest a little

25:12 bit what he has started to pray again he has started to pray God Has Come God has come that is how your life is going to be as long as as you become a man of prayer God will be involved in your life that's a mystery if you keep quiet your destiny is silenced if you open your mouth your destiny is open a closed mouth is a closed Destiny yeah sit down thank you father I pray for all these people acting as demons and

26:00 harassing people and this man being harassed I pray for them they will never be harassed they will never be demoniac in the name of Jesus Christ I cover them with the blood of Jesus somebody shout amen God bless you you may have your seats so tell your neighbor it's a mystery yeah God moves when he's asked to move if you cannot if you look in all you're getting get the ability to pray learn to pray if you want to become someone that defeats Satan learn to pray somebody actually said that to know how to pray

26:47 is better than to even have a degree yeah a lot of people have degrees but they don't know how to pray and their lives are messed up by demons Left Right Center I need you to watch that movie I recommended everybody here should watch that movie amen amen you will it will make you start praying so Minster mystery number one is that that is a movie please make sure you watch it awake o Christian the mystery number one is that it seems that God is limited or restricted to do only what we ask Matthew 7:7 the Bible says ask and it shall be

27:34 given unto you seek and you will find knock and it will be opened to you can I hear an amen so you see all through the Bible God only moves when he's asked to move if you don't ask him to move he doesn't move all through the Bible he keeps God is a gentle man he doesn't bre Force his way that's why the Bible says in revelation behold I knock at the door of your heart if you open I will enter and I will dine with you so God must be invited in our lives and how do you invite him through

28:21 prayer so stop eating start fasting you won't die we have not eaten we have only been eating a meal a day and some of us we have not even eaten a meal a day some of us some days we were not eating at all yeah some days we were just taking biscuit coffee and sleep and that's it and we are entering a second phase where we are just doing fruits we are going Deeper by the time we are on the third week which is next week next to next Sunday a time like this you would have done 14 days of prayer and fast yeah amen yeah and fasting without prayer is

29:11 not beneficial to you you must involve prayer in it wake up at 4:00 a.m. I I I was listening to a somebody giving a message about a man that was about to become the new priest fetish priest fetish is Wizards witch doctors like the priests in charge of these people and they they are involved in the spirit realm and this priest he was a young man he was about to be now the next priest but he got saved he was being trained and he was being prepared to take over after his father and the so he got saved

29:58 when he got saved the father told him there are three types of people you should never touch would you like to know the type of people you should never they should never touch he said these three type of people don't try and touch them or interfere with their lives number one is people who wake up at 3:00 a.m. to pray don't be those are dangerous people don't be involved with them don't try to touch them and then number two is people who um pray what we call intermittent prayers intermittent prayers like they don't pray for long but after every few minutes they open up their mouth and

30:43 pray whether they are in the bus station or in a matatu you find them that they have just opened their mouth they have started praying father I thank you I bless you he said those people don't touch them they are danger us after 1 hour they pray after 2 hours they pray they are spontaneous prayer warriors you know don't involve yourself with those people and then the third one is people who pray long prayers long prayers don't involve yourself with those people but he was told but when you look at a Christian and they don't pray shave them do you understand when they say shaped it means that you you see when

31:30 you're being shaped it must be willingly otherwise when you're being shaved unwillingly it becomes a very difficult thing like you in somebody's just cutting your hair hey so some of you demons enjoy you enjoy you because you are prayer free in your life you are prayer free you don't pray so you don't attract the presence of God mystery number two about prayer amen mystery number two is that even though God knows everything he still wants us to ask about what he already knows even though God knows about everything he still wants us to

32:17 ask what he already knows why on Earth should I tell God what he already knows that's is a mystery isn't it yeah it's a mystery he knows everything how many of you believe that God knows everything everything yeah but however he still wants you to come and tell him what he knows that's another mystery of prayer and that is why a lot of people don't pray because they feel like oh but he already knows why should I pray about it and it's a mystery so Matthew 6: 8 the Bible says in Matthew chapter 6:8 quickly that

33:03 therefore do not be like them for your father knows the things you have need of before you ask him that's a mystery that if he knows about my school fees about my life why should I again spend 21 days telling him about what he already knows that's where the mystery is so it's a mystery somebody say it's a mystery number three all right number three God I I mean before you even go to number three God is not like a father who's absent or a government that is absent

33:48 that you have to strike you have to do Mand mano to remind them that you exist and you have rights isn't it yet God expects you and I to pray even though he already knows what you need it's a mystery so that is why a lot of people can't pray because they Wonder but the Bible says he already knows before I even ask why should I ask him I'm wasting time these people they are wasting food and wasting time he number three another mystery is that God seems to want us to keep asking about the same things even though we have asked him before another mystery is that

34:33 it seems like I have asked once but God still wants me to ask again and again and again that is why first Thessalonians 5:17 I think it says pray without ceasing first Thessalonian it says pray without ceasing so if God has heard my prayer on the first day why should I Pray Again again why should I do 21 days about the same issue why should I pray for 4 days about the same issue and I have already told him once he already knows if he knows things all things so well why does he require us to keep

35:18 coming back to him can we not just ask once why should we pray without ceasing why did Jesus tell us the story of the unjust judge who had called on persistently until he was called on until he acted is God like an unjust judge who does not know does not care and does not remember can he just answer our prayers once after we have made the first request it's a m hisory I don't even know why he has to keep asking me to pray and pray and pray

36:04 over the same matter that's one of the mysteries of prayer that God wants you to keep coming and keep coming and keep coming and if you don't come keep coming and keep asking and keep talking to him you'll see number four mystery number four it seems like God wants us to keep asking but he also finds some prayers repetitious and boring God that is why I told you he's a mysterious God he wants us to come and keep asking

36:52 and keep asking but he still also tells us your prayers are repetitious and they are boring Matthew chap 6:7 look at verse 7 the bible says that and when you pray do not use vain repetitions but from Monday we have been saying Lord fill me with the Holy Ghost Lord fill me with the Holy Ghost have mercy on me Lord help me Lord oh let it overflow Lord like a rushing of A Mighty Wind let it overflow Lord oh my cup is empty Lord fill my cup Monday Tuesday fill my cup

37:41 Lord Wednesday fill my cup Lord Thursday I need the Holy Ghost repetition he wants us to repeat yet he sees we should not repeat because Matthew 6:7 comes before Matthew chapter 7 verse 7 look at Matthew 7:7 ask and the original version says ask and keep asking can you uh give me Amplified version amplify let's see whether it puts it that way somebody is

38:27 slow ask and keep on asking it's a mystery and it will be given to you seek and keep on I can't hear you guys keep on and you will F knock is that not repetition and repetition and repetition yet God says in Matthew 6:7 don't use vain repetition and so I was asking God what is this vain repetition what is this Vain repe and then I I heard a preacher preaching

39:12 about vain repetition he said that he was praying some demons were manifesting and then a lady shot up and started saying our father what in heaven Hallowed be thy name thy kingdom come thy will be done on other cities in heaven give us this day our daily bread and then he started again Our Father who in heaven Hallowed be thy name and many of us we have been brought up thinking that that's a prayer 21 times of Our Father who are in heaven Hallowed be thy name thy kingdom come thy will be done depending on your sin that is what is called vain repetition oh you say oh me I am from a Catholic church we pray H Maries I do 21 H Maries seven uh our fathers

39:58 and three Apostles Creed that is what is called vain repetition and that is boring to God by the way our father who are in heaven is not a prayer it's a guide on how to pray Our Father who are in heaven is a guide on how to pray not prayer is a how to pray it shows you when you pray Our Father who are in heaven this is like this is what to pray like you start by hallowing God Hallowed Be thy name you exalt God when you start your prayer you don't start by good morning God now I need a car I need a wife no you need to start with oh God Hallowed be thy name you are a mighty God you are an awesome God you

40:45 are a gracious God and then then you go into Kingdom matters thy kingdom come you start praying Lord I pray that your kingdom will expand in this country Lord I pray that Kingdom will come in this city Lord I pray that you will use me for your kingdom you discuss Kingdom issues in the presence of God yeah on other cities in heaven give us this day is praying for provision Lord I pray that you provide for the vision that you have given to me I pray that you Lord you'll be my provider you're Jehovah gy you are my provider each and every point of that prayer you can pray for hours then it goes down every part of

41:31 that the Lord's Prayer every part of it is a style of praying amen forgive us our debts Lord I ask for Mercy I ask for forgiveness give me the grace to forgive our debors lead me not into temptation Lord evil is around me when I open my my ex account I see pornography lead me not into temptation Deliver Me From Evil I am surrounded by evil people Lord that's how you pray So Vain repetition then number five I'm finishing my

42:17 preaching oh yes because I want you to go and get ready mysteriously mystery number five it seems that some prayers need to be very long and other prayers need to be short you need to be a master of long and short prayers you must be able to pray long prayers and short prayers it's a mystery it's a mystery that sometimes you pray short prayers and they give you a amazing results and sometimes you pray long prayers and they give you amazing results

43:04 amen could it be that it is time for you to pray long prayers but you're praying short prayers you wake up in the morning you say the grace of our Lord Jesus Christ and the love of God and The Fellowship of the Holy Spirit be with me now and forever more amen and then you come out and you are going to work while you were you should have woken up early and prayed at least an hour Jesus came to his disciples and they asked them why could you pray with me for at least one hour we are the minimum hey look at your neighbor who looks like they have even eaten

43:50 breakfast and asked them brother when will you start praying Jesus prayed long prayers and short prayers she he prayed long prayers in the morning atone Mark 1:35 that is why we wake up at 3:00 to pray from 4: to 6: Long prayers that's why we are coming in the evening to pray long prayers two hours somebody is saying what do you tell God for 2 hours we used to be like you you are not peculiar even my my first time I

44:37 went for a prayer meeting in less than 3 minutes all my prayers were finished it was in high school I went for CU I could see people walking sh I wonder I sat down I was sitting in on the seat I was just like you and moved I I wondered these people what are they telling God because me in three minutes I had finished Lord I Thank you for my school I thank you for my mother I thank you for my father I thank you for my brothers I thank you for my sister I thank you for my sh Anda keep them alive father thank you thank you for I'll pass

45:22 my exams help me with my exams Lord I Thank You Lord I pray help me to stay saved Lord thank you because forgive me my sins Lord I'm a sinner there are many things I have done wrong oh God forgive me I am I don't deserve to be in the presence who am I Lord who am I then finished the rest of the problems you know them Lord then I open my eyes and I so 3 minutes and these other guys are there oh God oh God oh God oh God oh God

46:09 hey I was like what they were praying they prayed I think it was I think from 5 to 7 I said wow so I started Desiring to be like them so I said from tomorrow I'm fasting and nobody even taught me I said I want the holy spirit because I could tell that what is empowering them is the holy spirit they can't because the Bible says we don't know how to pray Romans chapter 8 verse um 26 look at Romans chapter 8:

46:59 26 it says that for we do not know how to now likewise the spirit also helps in our weaknesses for we do not know what we should pray for as we ought are you seeing it but the spirit himself makes intercession for us with gronings which cannot be uttered the groanings that cannot be uttered is what we are saying yeah so you are dry like a like a stone from

47:46 kerian you are wondering why how come I cannot pray Mercy is because you don't have the holy spirit so Mark chapter 1:35 look at Jesus going for long prayers Jesus Lord Jesus hey guys you need to be quick please now in the morning having risen a long while before daylight he went out and departed to a solitary place and there what did he do there played Candy Crush he played or he

48:31 prayed you should be careful if you're next to aiku they might be saying he played tell your neighbor he prayed Elijah early in the morning when you become a man who can wake up early to pray you'll be a very different man you'll be a different husband a different man a different businessman a different everything early and he prayed for long at dawn ah show me another one okay Luke chapter 6 verse 12 to 13 when Jesus wanted to choose the

49:17 disciples that will follow him look at him now it came to pass in those days that he went out to the mountain to play for Shere by the way the only party we hear about Jesus going his one wedding party we don't hear him in any other parties and maybe dinners no baby showers no but when you hear him praying praying you see him many times going to pray one of them he says that he went to pray and continued all night in prayer in prayer in

50:04 what I can't hear you in what he was all night in prayer like if it is from 7 to 7 praying whatever he was doing praying in the presence of God praying the whole night and why is he praying verse 13 so that he can come and choose his disciples and when it was day he called his disciples to himself from them he chose 12 whom he will also name Apostle now listen you you want to marry you are choosing your girlfriend or your boyfriend with your own flesh with the Nash you see Nash

51:02 front and back you say Hey you asking to whom to to whom for to whom does it belong to you are in church you are looking at girls and you're say Hey you will marry the woman you will see that instead of having a wife you have a knife H sit down I'm talking to you Jesus prayed the whole night the whole night to choose what disciples you your name is

51:51 Michael O this your name is not even in the Bible you are called you are called jayen sit down sit down your name is dway sit down and you're not praying about your life partner to choose your life partner when I wanted to choose my life partner I fasted 21 days to choose my

52:37 wife 21 days I was fasting Lord show me who to marry Lord show me who to marry when I wanted to start a church I fasted I don't know how many days I fasted many many intermittent kind of fastings for many days to start this church yeah you want to be in business and you're choosing partners with your flesh yeah I was being told of a friend of mine who who had Partners when their business got to billions of of Shillings in capital and whatever profits they found something in the contract and they

53:23 kicked him out and he was the brain behind the business he had to go and start a fresh because when you choose things without prayer without prayer long prayers Jesus prayed all night to choose his disciples hey long prayers of Jesus Matthew 26: 40-42 Jesus can you see Jesus making long prayers your name is ATO who are you now if Jesus can pray long prayers who are

54:11 you and he prayed long prayers and he still had Judas you you are praying not at all who are you going to have 15 judases or you'll even be a Judas yourself the Bible says then he came to the disciples and found them sleeping and said Peter what could what he came to Peter and said what could you not watch with me 1 hour you could not wake up and pray with me for 1 hour they were sleeping

55:00 4:00 a.m. you are just pray we we are praying we are online praying you you are your call your Shepherd calls you don't pick some of you you look very beautiful but the way you small you are giving AR Rhino one time I went to the mara M Mara and I was sleeping next to the river my my my room was next to the river and the river was full of hipples in the night you hear them

55:48 snoring that is how some of you snow in the night you are more than a hippopotamus and then you fart in the night you fart in sequence you start with then you go then tell your neighbor you your your your number is being dialed du is just going like look at your neighbor tell your neighbor start praying stop

57:31 do you want to defeat that thing start praying you will just the desire for that thing will finish your desire for fornication will cease your desire for drugs will stop oh yes the Bible says Watch and Pray lest you enter into temptation and he says the spirit is willing your spirit wants to pray but your flesh is weak that's why we are fasting to weaken the flesh so that the spirit will have power because when you pray you don't pray with your flesh you pray in the spirit so you must so the fasting keeps

58:17 your flesh subjected so that your spirit can now begin to thrive amen then verse 42 he says in verse 42 again a second time he went away and prayed saying oh my father if this cup cannot pass away from me unless I drink it your will be done he went again to pray the second hour so long prayers then you see Jesus doing short prayers his short prayers were as a result of his long prayers people who have short prayers that are powerful are people who have had long prayers in private because short prayers are made in public most of the time if not all

59:05 the time so Jesus also had instances where she he made short prayers John chap 11 verse 41-43 he raised a man from the dead through a short prayer he said then they went and took away the Stone from the place where the dead man was lying and Jesus lifted up his eyes and said father I thank you that you have heard me can you imagine short prayer verse 42 and I know that you always hear me but because of the people who are standing by I said this that they may believe that you sent me then verse 43 Miracle he say now when he had said these things he cried with a loud voice

59:50 Lazarus come forth come forth he and Lazarus came forth he rose from the dead he rose short prayer three minutes Lazarus come forth and Lazarus came forth oh yes I was telling the guys in the Overcomers about a story I was watching the other day of a man of God when he finished preaching the guy who was driving him he was a guest speaker so the guy who was carrying him in his car taking him and bringing him taking him and bringing him when they got to the car they and they get got into the car the man and his wife the preacher as the
