2020 FASTING FELLOWSHIP    JAN. 27-FEB.16, 2020

SEASON OF SCORE-SCORE

Theme:  GOD HAS BEEN PROVOKED TO JEALOUSY

Topic:    ANSWER ME IN THY FAITHFULNESS AND RIGHTEOUSNESS (Day 9)

Text:     Ps.143:1-12

 

Prayer is an instrument of gathering and conveying resources from heaven to the planet earth. It is when one has broken into heaven that he can command and control on earth. Hanna broke through and attracted the high priest who made the declaration that changed her destiny (1Sam. 1:9-20). And Elijah broke through and altered the season on ground (1Kgs.18:41-45).

 

The Psalmist narrated his ordeal stating that he couldn’t enter into an argument with the Lord (v.1-4). He then made reference to the testimonies of old (v.5) and, his thirst for God (v.6), his commitment to trust God (v.8) and his desire to know God’s will (v.10). He invoked God’s faithfulness and righteousness in his plea (v.1,11).

 

The believer must not get into an argument with the Lord, but rather present his strong reasons for his request (Job 38:1-4; Isa.41:21) Making reference to God’s previous deeds boosts faith, and indicating one’s commitment, following God is a plus to his appeal. And presenting one’s reasons based on God’s qualities/nature like righteousness and faithfulness, guarantees positive response from Him.

 

We shall progress today to ask Him to answer us in His Faithfulness (reliability) and Righteousness (that which is right in His sight).
