ABOUT THE AUTHOR
FOREWORD
Intercession is the kind of prayer that moves the heart of God. When the people of God intercede for each other, needs are met, lives are changed, and people are drawn closer together. What is intercession? It is a prayer that pleads with God: it involves taking a hold of God’s will and refusing to let go until his will comes to pass. A family member faces a deadly disease; your neighbor just lost a loved one; your family is in desperate need of Jesus; someone is facing a divorce; someone just lost their job, which was the only income in the home; all of these cases are things much too large for us to handle. But, what do we do? It’s times like these when we need to turn to the Lord in intercessory prayer.
Getting your Knees Right, is a book written by a very special daughter of mine, Elder Shirley Graves. She is one who has exemplified the intercessory prayer lifestyle. I have watched her grow to become an extremely seasoned and faithful prayer warrior. She has been knocked aside, talked about, misunderstood, and has faced many trials and disappointments in her life, yet because of her prayer life she has stood every test, because God heard her prayers. God speaks to us through his Word but, we talk to him through prayer. In talking to and with him, we show him our faith, which in turn moves him to act on our behalf.
I am confident that this book is going to be a special blessing in the lives of believers across the globe. May everyone that reads this book receive God’s power and presence as He releases his awesome power upon their live.
Bishop Allen H. Simmons, D.D.,
Chief Apostle of Sounds of Praise Pentecostal Fellowship Ministries, Inc.
And Senior Pastor of Greater New Bethel Sounds of Praise

WORDS OF ENCOURAGEMENT FROM THE AUTHOR
I have been so thankful, and grateful, to our God for giving me the grace and mercy to bring His Word, to spread abroad the good news, to reach people day-to-day and to speak life to a dead situation. I thank God for the many testimonies to believe and to receive, for interceding and communicating with the Father. I pray that this book will help you believe and receive, for you to get an answer that you need in your prayers from God. As you know, all Scriptures point directly to our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ, in whom we have a foundation being rooted and grounded in love in helping us to stay focused on God. In reading this book, my purpose is to ensure that the words that are written will encourage you to continue reading and studying the word of God. Be diligent and know that God is always in control. In this book there is a purpose to prepare us for in season and out of season, to always be ready to serve God in any situation, whether or not it is convenient to be used by yourself or for others. All scripture is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness: That the man of God may be perfect, thoroughly furnished unto all good works. (2 Tim 3:16-17).
The words that you read from this book will keep your spirit clean and allow the Holy Spirit to dwell deep inside of you, and also it will give you clean hands, a clean heart, and a renewed spirit.
Once you start getting into the word of God, it will convict you and come alive with power, for the anointing will destroy the yokes and move burdens in your life. The word is sharper than any two-edged sword, piercing even to the dividing asunder of soul and spirit, and of the joints and marrow, and is a discerner of thoughts and intents of the heart. (Hebrews 4:12) Being a great Intercessor and Prayer Warrior is communicating and fellowshipping with the Father, having a vital personal relationship with God interceding on someone else behalf. Getting Your Knees Right with the Father will help you have a greater impact for the Kingdom to continue to intercede for your leaders, sisters and brothers in Christ, families, neighbors, and show love for one another. Get ready for God to show up and show out in 2011 Getting Your Knees Right.

Interceding and communicating with the Father
Praying in the Spirit on your Knees
O Heavenly Father, I come with thanksgiving on my lips, just to tell you thank you for being a wonderful and almighty God. When I am down on my knees I’m asking you please, I’m calling you and calling your name. You said you never leave me nor forsake me, you said you will be with me until the end of the world. In your precious name Lord, fill me with your Holy Spirit. Father, when I am kneeling down on my knees I’m asking you to please help me to get through all pains, hurts, and tribulations. Father, I
