Those who will lead others




1 Samuel 3:19 The Lord was with Samuel as he grew up, and he let none of his words fall to the ground.

 We must discover God’s plan within the messages we receive because we are people who will lead others. We have to surpass others in order to lead them. We can only lead others and the world if we continue to receive answers to prayer.






1. What we must first know
 If we, by nature, fall in front of problems, we must change our natures to become people who overcome problems. We must know how to get into a prayer rhythm. Scheduled prayer is getting into an important rhythm in our lives. We must be able to get into a prayer rhythm in the field through continuous prayer and move the field. We must also get into a rhythm regarding messages through worship prayer so that we don’t lose hold of the important flow of messages. There are also times when we must get into a prayer rhythm through focused prayer to experience the width, height and depth of prayer.






2. What we must challenge towards in regards to prayer
 After Abraham made an important resolution, he built an altar and challenged himself in regards to prayer. In order for churches to come alive, there must be many workers of faith who hold onto the pulpit message and challenge in regards to prayer. Daniel prayed three times a day with thanksgiving to God while facing death, and Paul set aside a time of deep prayer when he began his important ministry of evangelism and missions. There are things that we must not lose hold of as we challenge in regards to prayer. We must discover the answers that God gives us whenever we give scheduled prayer, and we must receive answers that are a fulfillment of the Word. We must receive answers regarding evangelism whenever we pray. We will receive great strength if we experience this, and prayer will become fun for us. Everyone we meet will receive great strength from us if we are within this mystery.






3. The areas we must excel in
 We must excel in all situations. We must not get carried away when we receive answers, or get mired in our work. More importantly, our thoughts must lead the way. We must excel in faith, too. We must surpass any problem that comes our way. We must surpass the future as well. If this happens, we will be able to lead others through the answers we’ve received.
