A call to prayer ~ Bishop Wilfred Lai

Failure to pray will bring failure in what we do; every time we fail to pray, we give the enemy an opportunity to defeat us.
I don’t care how great satan tries to show himself, I don’t care how high the thing that faces you right now tries to magnify itself - you may be faced with challenges in your business, challenges in your marriage, challenges in different areas of your life - it doesn’t matter how great that challenge is- you can challenge it and you can defeat it in the name of the Lord.
That is why your Christian life is attacked in the area of prayer more than any other area.
A Christian, who is trying to live for God, will all the time face a challenge when he wants to pray, somebody will come at the hour you want to pray, the telephone will ring when you are praying.
It was all quiet but the moment you begin praying, it becomes so busy, people are trying to reach you.
It is not people trying to reach you it is the enemy trying to stop you.
Sometimes when we want to pray, a heaviness comes and you just feel  tired and exhausted even when you have been resting.
I don’t know whether I am the only person who faces these problems.
We cannot make it without God, without His help we will fail.
The only promise of success we are given in the word of God, is only when we depend on the Lord, without Him we cannot make it.
No one has enough power to overcome the devil, but you and Jesus, you and the Lord can never be beaten; you are an unbeatable team, you and the Lord cannot loose any battle.
I cannot be defeated by the devil or by demons or by men or by anything when I depend on the Lord.
Read 2 Chronicles 14:9-12.
