How To Pray In Faith

When learning how to pray, one must understand there are different types of prayers. So often people clump all their prayers together, thus time and again many prayers go unanswered. God wants you to be specific in your prayers.

One prayer is the prayer of faith. When a believer prays in faith, their situation has no other choice but to change. This is because the person who prayed had no doubt it would change.

They prayed, they believed, thus their prayer was answered.

And all things, whatsoever ye shall ask in prayer, believing, ye shall receive. Matthew 21:22

People who pray in faith ask and believe that whatever it was they prayed about has come to pass; has manifest even if they can’t see it with their human eyes.

Now faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen. Hebrews 11:1

When someone has learned how to pray in faith, they’re able to see past the human senses and they choose to only focus in the spiritual. It’s the human senses which also attribute to many unanswered prayers.

As you pray begin to remind God of what his Word says about all the promises he has made unto you and your life. Begin to meditate on and quote Scriptures concerning your circumstance. God won’t get mad at you for jogging his memory about his promises.

God heard you the first time, but that doesn’t mean stop praying.

And this is the confidence that we have in him, that, if we ask any thing according to his will, he heareth us: And if we know that he hear us, whatsoever we ask, we know that we have the petitions that we desired of him. 1 John 5:14-15

The effectual fervent prayer of a righteous man availeth much. James 5:16b

Understand when you pray the enemy is trying to sabotage whatever it is for which you’ve prayed. That is why you must keep praying, so anything barrier he is trying to put up in hopes of your prayer not being answered will not work.

Begin to change your confessions from, “When I get healed.” Start saying, “I’m walking in my healing. I am healed.”

When you talk like this, you’re building your faith muscles. When you begin to pray in faith, you’ll be able to move any mountain presented to you.
