Rebuilding Altars of Fervent Prayer
The reign of Christ that restores His blessing enters through altars of fervent prayer. The absence of God’s honor and blessing in a given situation can provoke us to build altars of fervent prayer, which lead to the breaking in of Christ’s authority and the release of His freedom, His power, and His peace. Contained in this specific example of Elijah’s praying includes a confrontation with darkness, the kind of prayer that moves confronts the invisible realm where hell has dominated a situation and then by the power of earnest praying breaks through the bondage that Hell has imposed on the circumstance. Elijah’s response was to confront darkness with an altar of prayer.
From Series: "Call of Duty"
There is a call of duty laid upon followers of Jesus - a call to fervent prayer in a spiritual battle that leads to God’s purposes being realized and fulfilled and the disarming of darkness.
