TAKING HOLD TOGETHER WITH AGAINST: Prayer Note # 42

 "In situations where we’re experiencing an inability to get results, the Holy Spirit not only wants to direct our prayers precisely, causing them to light up on correctly, but He also wants to take hold of the situation together with us, adding His strength to ours.

“Not by [your] might not by [your] power, but by My Spirit,’ says the Lord of hosts”will the mountain be moved." Zech. 4:6

[Sheets prayed for a cyst to dissolve in his wife’s abdomen, and in time, it did. The Spirit had given him a vision from time to time of the cyst shrinking. When he finally saw in a vision that it disappeared, he knew it was gone. An ultrasound confirmed it!]

“You know what happened, don’t you?

• · A ‘taking hold of together with against happened.
• · A ‘Bethel’ happened.
• · A ‘lighting on’ happened
• · A ‘laying on’ and ‘bearing away’ happened
• · A ‘meeting’ happened
• · An ‘enforcing’ happened
• · A ‘representation’ happened.

The most important point I want to communicate to you through this book, is that God wants to use YOU. You don’t have to be a pastor or prophet. You don’t have to be Brother or Sister Well Known. You don’t have to know Greek from Swahili. You simply have to be a believer in Jesus-one of His chosen representatives—one called and authorized to administer the blessing of the new covenant—a Christian.

God the Father wants to release the work of Jesus through your prayers. The Holy Spirit wants to help you. Bethels are waiting to be discovered. Histories are waiting to be written, destinies shaped.”
