Kinds of Prayer

Kinds of Prayer I
by Kenneth Copeland

God's WORD instructs us to " pray always with all prayer" (Ephesians 6:14, 18).
Other translations say, "all kinds of prayer", or "different kinds of prayer" or "different kinds of prayer." The Amplified Bible says, "with all [manner of prayer]." There is more than just one kind of prayer, and depending on what you desire fro The LORD, you need to understand the importance of each one. Let's discuss each them in the light of God's WORD.

  In the session, we'll look at the prayer of agreement, the prayer of binding and loosing, and the prayer of petition and supplication.

The Prayer of Agreement


  When prayed according to Matthew 18:18-20, the prayer of agreement will cover every circumstance in life:

Verily I say unto you, Whatsoever ye shall bind on earth shall be bound in heaven: and whatsoever ye shall loose on earth shall be loosed in heaven. Again I say unto you, That if two of you shall ask, it shall agree on earth as touching any thing that they shall ask, it shall be done for them of my Father which is in heaven. For where two or three are gathered together in my name, there am I in the midst of them.

Let me use finance to illustrate. The first thing is to agree with The WORD. Read the scriptures and pray. Gloria and I sometimes write down our agreements like this:

"We hereby agree, according to Philippians 4:19 and Matthew 18:19 as follows: "Father, we see in Your WORD that You will supply all our needs according to Your riches in glory. We are setting ourselves in agreement that our financial need is met according to Your WORD. We believe we receive (be specific)_____.
We establish this agreement, in Jesus' Name. Amen."
    Amen means "So be it." As far as we are concerned, the matter is closed. We just thank God from that point forward. We know if we want results we must not waver. To waver is to doubt.

If Satan brings doubt, we simply speak to him in the authority of Jesus' Name and say, "Don't bring us your lies. Not only is it written in God's WORD, but we have agreed. We have written it down." As we have agreed. We have written it down." As far as we are concerned, the need is met. There is no doubt about it because we have agreed according to The WORD of God. Consequently, our confession and actions will be in line with what we have established as truth.

I challenge you to write
