The Lord's Relationship Prayer - Jimmie F. Booze
Worship
Introduction
In the book of Matthew the sixth chapter verse nine through thirteen, the disciples make a very important request of the Lord. Lord, teach us to pray.
According to the (American Heritage Dictionary), to teach is to: Impart knowledge or skill to; To provide knowledge or instruct in; To condition to a certain action or frame of mind; To cause to learn by example or experience; To advocate or preach; To carry on instruction on a regular basis in.
Based on this understanding, the disciples were not merely asking for instructions, they were saying, we want to do what you are doing, the way you are doing it, show us how.
Jesus responded immediately to their request. In Jesus’ response we find a very powerful prayer, which can be repeated, but more importantly, we find Elements of Relationship, that can be used to equip the saints to fight the good fight of faith.
An element is; A fundamental, essential, or irreducible constituent of a composite entity; (American Heritage). Thus imbedded within the Lord’s Prayer
, we find essential principals and fundamentals of prayer, which cannot be reduced to a mere recital of memorizations of appropriate readings for specific occasions.
I was living in Cleveland, Ohio in the fall of 1999. While in meditation and prayer, at about 2 am; the Lord woke me up and had me to read what is commonly known as the Lord’s Prayer
. I struggled at first as to why I would be instructed to read a verse of scripture that I knew so well. After reading it the first time, I sensed nothing from the reading and thought that I would go back to sleep now.
I was very tired; and didn’t want to be up at this hour. However, the spirit of the Lord prompted me to read it again, I did, and yet nothing. But when I read it the third time my spirit began to be halted as if the Lord was saying slow down; I want to show you something. I began to read; Our Father which art in heaven; hallowed be thy name
then came a pause in my spirit and a word would come to my mind and I’d write it down. I’d continue to read and the pauses continued throughout the read. When I was finished reading The Lord’s Prayer I had seven words written down. I was then prompted in my spirit to begin to write.
I started writing, and in a little over an hour I had wrote an entire book on what I called The Seven Elements of Prayer
. For years I began to preach and teach on this revelation of the Lord into my life. During the fall of 2010, the Lord began to speak to me concerning the book. He told me that it was an unfinished work. So now in the fall of 2012, I am once again receiving from the Lord. Only this time He is showing me how these words lead us to a right relationship with God, man and the world.
These seven words are the foundation of the revelations in this book as the Lord reveled them to me. I pray that they bless you, as they have me. The words are:
1. Reverence
2. Surrender
3. Confidence
4. Self-Examination
5. Guidance
6. Deliverance
7. Praise
After reveling to me these seven words as I was instructed that while it’s O.K. to recite the words of the prayer, the lesson He was teaching the disciples was much deeper than memorization. He was giving them immutable universal principles of prayer, that if learned and applied to one’s life there would be, No weapon that is formed against thee, (that) shall prosper...
- Isaiah 54:17.
He further imparted to me the understanding that these elements of prayer, once ingrained into the spirit and soul, would literally transform one’s character from the inside out. Such a transformation is needed if the child of God is to live victoriously, while walking in the spirit.
Know that every time you pray you are entering into spiritual warfare. If not properly trained for battle, your enemy the devil will have his way with you, though you pray often. It is the purpose of this book to provide you with seven elements of prayer, that you might fulfill the instructions of the Word, "... men ought to always pray, and
...pray without ceasing".
I’m reminded of the scripture in James 1:5; If any of you lack wisdom, let him ask of God, that giveth to all men liberally, and upbraideth not; and it shall be given him
.
You are now about to receive wisdom from God to fight the good fight of faith.
Our Kinship
The Lord starts off by letting the disciples know that when they prayed, that they needed to recognize that they were related to one another by one father, Our Father, who art in heaven
.
This was to put them in mind of the relationship they had with one another. If we would only realize that we are all brothers and sisters in the Lord; and that all of our ancestries have but one beginning, we might be more willing to see to it that we all received that
