Do you know what an electric panel does?
You call the electric company and they make electric power available to your home.
Now you have all that power available, what do you do with it? Do you run a single wire to each item in your house from the power line? Powering one item at a time?
No.
You run power to a box and then tap into those lines from the box. Then you flip a switch and you have lights, hot water, tv, computer etc....
Isn't prayer the same thing?
It opens you up to the power of God!
We have our life, and we want the power of God to fill us not just one area but all areas. Prayer is our conduit for tapping into that power,
We can then apply that power to:
Finance

We have our life, and we want the power of God to fill us not just one area but all areas. Prayer is our conduit for tapping into that power,
We can then apply that power to:
Finance
Relationships
Wisdom
Guidance
and more
Individually each one important, but filled with the Spirit through prayer, powers all areas and channels of our life at once.
There are many types of prayer. Praise prayer, the model prayer, contrition prayers.
We do not need to worry about prayer categories, formulas, chants, or anything that is rote.
What we need to worry about is our heart and the desires of it when we pray.
(Jas 4:1) From whence come wars and fightings among you? come they not hence, even of your lusts that war in your members?
(Jas 4:2) Ye lust, and have not: ye kill, and desire to have, and cannot obtain: ye fight and war, yet ye have not, because ye ask not.
(Jas 4:3) Ye ask, and receive not, because ye ask amiss, that ye may consume it upon your lusts.
This is perhaps the greatest problem with our prayer. We throw up a 3 second prayer to God asking for money, help solving a problem. The switch never gets turned on. We have not tapped into our power source because we "pray" in the flesh out of our own viewpoint.
1Th 5:16 Rejoice evermore.
1Th 5:17 Pray without ceasing.
1Th 5:18 In every thing give thanks: for this is the will of God in Christ Jesus concerning you.
1Th 5:19 Quench not the Spirit.
1Th 5:20 Despise not prophesyings.
1Th 5:21 Prove all things; hold fast that which is good.
1Th 5:22 Abstain from all appearance of evil.
1Th 5:23 And the very God of peace sanctify you wholly; and I pray God your whole spirit and soul and body be preserved blameless unto the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ.
This is how we tap into our power source. This is the way to live a spirit filled life. Rejoice, praise, prayer, study and a good testimony.
Always in a spirit of prayer, communion with God. Once we know His Will and His Word we can pray in His Will.
Once we are attuned to His Will and we channel our prayers through His Word and His Will Then we have fully tapped into the source of power. We will have reached full capacity.
