In our last teaching, we saw that serving God leads to blessings, breakthroughs, and generational favour. Today, we focus on one of the most powerful ways to serve God—The Kingdom Advancement Prayer.
The Prayer Commandment
Prayer is a vital part of Kingdom advancement. It is not just for pastors or prayer warriors—it is every believer’s responsibility.
1️⃣ Kingdom Advancement Prayer is Every Believer’s Ministry
📖 Matthew 6:9-10; Luke 18:1; 1 Thessalonians 5:17
🔹 Jesus taught His disciples to pray for God’s Kingdom to come. This means praying for souls to be saved, the church to grow, and the gospel to spread.
🔹 Prayer is not optional—it is a command. Jesus said, “Men ought always to pray, and not to faint” (Luke 18:1).
🔹 Apostle Paul also emphasized, “Pray without ceasing” (1 Thessalonians 5:17).
📌 If you can talk, you can pray! Prayer is one of the greatest ways to serve God.
2️⃣ Kingdom Advancement Prayer Provokes a Strange Order of Favours
📖 Nehemiah 1:1-10, 2:1-8, 5:14
🔹 Nehemiah was a cupbearer to the king, but he had a passion for God’s work. He prayed and fasted for the rebuilding of Jerusalem.
🔹 Because of his prayers, God granted him unusual favour with the king. He was given resources, protection, and promotion!
🔹 When you pray for God’s Kingdom, He raises men to favour you beyond your expectations.
📌 Do you desire supernatural favour? Commit to praying for God’s Kingdom!
3️⃣ Kingdom Advancement Prayer Guarantees Open Rewards
📖 Matthew 6:6, 9-10, 17-18
🔹 Jesus taught that when we pray in secret, God rewards us openly.
🔹 Many believers struggle because they pray only for their personal needs. But when you make God’s Kingdom your priority, He makes your life His priority!
🔹 Seeking first the Kingdom through prayer ensures that all other things are added to us (Matthew 6:33).
