In this episode of the Prayer Clinic podcast Leighann shares a message on how we can pray the promise of God and believe them! She shows you how the character of God supports His promises, how to make the promises work for you and for those you're praying with, and mostly how to know when God's kept His promise to you.Then the Lord said to me, “You have seen well, for I am watching[a] over my wordto perform it.” Jeremiah How the Character of God Impacts the Promises of God:Andrew Murray, “There is something more necessary than the effort to exercise faith in each separate promise that comes to our attention. That is the cultivation of a trustful attitude toward God—the habit of always thinking of Him, of His ways and of His works, with bright confident hopefulness. In such soil alone the individual promises take root and grow up.”God is FAITHFUL.God is HONEST.God is RELIABLE.God is CERTAIN TO DO WHAT HE SAYS HE WILL DO.How the Promises of God Declare the Presence of God“The LORD directs the steps of the godly. He delights in every detail of their lives.”Psalm When you pray the promises you are inviting the presence and power of God to enter into the details of your life and take control of the circumstances. You are trusting Him to do what He knows is best, and to reveal Himself to you and to those around you as He does.God is eager to release and demonstrate His power on the earth.How to take God’s promises and make them work for you (and others)Here are 3 steps to making the promises work for you and those you are praying with.1.  Embrace an all or nothing mindset.“Whom have I in heaven but You? And there is nothing on earth that I desire besides you.” Psalm 2.  Be Surrendered and Satisfied.Surrender definition: cease resistance and submit to authority.To be satisfied in surrender is to shout AMEN! (SO BE IT!) to the glory of God on this side or our answered prayers!“For no matter how many promises God has made, they are “Yes” in Christ. And so through him the “Amen” is spoken by us to the glory of God.” 2 Corinthians 3.  Cultivate an Attitude of GratitudeWhen you cultivate an attitude of gratitude your eyes are opened to how God’s promises fit into your life. You begin to see what God is already doing and you fuel your faith regarding what He’s about to be doing!How to Know When God’s Kept His Promise to YouGod kept His promise to you the minute He made it.God doesn’t heckle you.God doesn’t mess with you.Instead, God challenges you to take the promises He’s given you no hold fast to them but holding tight to Him.God Himself promises to keep His promises!Psalm Joshua Lamentations Philippians And, Jeremiah Let’s not just pray for our patrons. Let’s pray with confidence knowing that He who promised is faithful.God’s Got This!
