Travailing Prayer

What is a traveling prayer? Why is it even why is it in the Bible? And how do I enter into that because it's some mode of prayer that a lot of people that as a church we need to engage in enter into Last week we talked about with the week prior because my prayer and we realize that it was it meant something prepare position request a kuehl to the Holy Spirit and expect great results last week. We talked about the purpose and we realize the purpose of prayer was connection at least the companionship agreement with God that leads to our alignment on Earth that we would stay in a place of trusting truth until it triumphs.

So now we're going to talk about Victory known as travailing in prayer 1841 through 46. This is right after Elijah challenge the prophets of Baal. Do you know that significant thing about that is there was a drought going on in the land. Are you do with a wide you decided to do you use one of the most precious resources at the time and gave it to God as a sacrifice. He took water. Do you put it on the altar? He dug a trench around it. This was not something that you would normally do with the sacrifice. Especially during the drought where water is Scaris The famine was a drought and you put it on me. You put it on this altar. God Spire came down and now Elijah is talking with a hat. He's like eating drinks for their is the sound of abundance of rain that moment after the altar Elijah to prepare for rain.

It's the way I went out to eat and to drink and Elijah went up to the top of Carmel, which is a mountain. I know cuz it's a Mount Carmel sounds like a flavor. Anybody else down upon the Earth and put his face between his knees?

Joey I love you, buddy. Could you come here?

I was watching this show and it said right here in the middle. Picture it says he brought himself down to the down to the Earth.

Yep, and it does he put his face between between his knees. Could you show us what that looks like?

Do you know? Historically in the birthing process of birthing something. This was one of the most comfortable positions to give birth.

Listen to a birthing position. Thank you. Joey Mad clock. ABC

What happened next? And he said to the serpent go up now look towards the sea and he went up and looked and said there is nothing Elijah said go again seven-time got into the position of birth and he started praying for rain because there was a famine there was a drought they had rain in years as it gets in this position and he starts praying and then he would go and see if there's anything in the sky resembles a rain cloud. And at the seventh time the service at a cloud as small as a man's hand is rising is a rising out of the sea and why you say go up say they have hit your cherry and go down less the less the rain stop you in a little while. The heavens were black with wind swept clouds and there was a great raining and they had went to just Grill. The handler was on Elijah. He turned up his loins and ran before they have to the entrance of Jezreel nearly 20 miles. So, book fans if you're looking for the flash from DC there it is a chariot. miles away Can you put that in your coffee and figure it out?

But the verse that we're going to look at is this.

Can you search up and look toward the sea and he went up and looked and said there?

and there is nothing Elijah say go again 7 x 7 x Elijah's in this position birthing something out go and check for cloud going to check for a sign Elijah refuse to listen because he was in a place of belief the only reason why I live if you remember if it's going to rain, so the reason why I was in this position on top of Mount Carmel,

I want to talk we do things according to the word of the Lord. Are we doing it more going to? What we feel or think at the moment.

Don't look at this one on seven times seven times. He said go and check going check. You have to realize that serve it if you're probably annoyed.

How many times have you been praying for something and you check and it wasn't there if you checked again and it wasn't there? And then you gave up.

I did that before.

But why did you s******** for he kept sending his servant? He kept sending him and eventually said hey, if you have the King James said there's a cloud the size of a man's hand in the sky and it says Elijah arose and said, okay, let's prepare for rain cuz there's a small breaking in the heavens. And it looks like rain today.

Let me explain what your Vale mean travail means labor pains birth in grief and agonizing. Doesn't sound fun does it?

No, the only time you for bills when you're pregnant.

Yorkshire building to Buddy that's not what we're trying to get pregnant with but Orchard, you're not kidding Lord. I never want that.

It means labor pains Elijah something the Lord spoke to him, but God is looking for a conduit.

Who is word can manifest in when God speaks the word? He's speaking it to you as a c but it's up to you to call Bella because he wants to burn something from Heaven to Earth through your life.

but in the developmental process

we are bored.

That's a very strong word.

We don't go the full way in we stop halfway and say, you know what note to hard takes too much time too much pain too much. After you to run into it.

He's asking you to allow me to win the burden of who he is the burden that he feels in his heart to burn in your heart that you would begin to pray in such a way for Moana come out.

Psalms 126:5 through six says Those Who sow in tears shall reap in joy and singing and it said this in the 6 verse he who goes for varying seed and weep at the meeting is precious supply of grain for sewing so doubtless come again with rejoicing bringing his sheaves with him. What does it saying is that if you sow in tears you're going to reap in joy.

Do you understand before they had it when they can get rid of the birthing pain? That that was very hard for ladies. Pain and tears. Jesus said something about it like when a woman labor pain comes Upon A Woman She's troubled.

If you're not being troubled in your spirit, my question is are you pregnant?

And the only way for us to get Spirits pregnant by receiving the word of God. Because this word is the same. It says this he who goes for variance. He's getting this. It's breaking the heart you're crying you're listening to what God is saying in the moment you're allowing and not to just be a Bible study, but you're allowing it to be called the Bible reading you. And that's his work begins to read you and going to your heart breaks up that hard ground some of those mines at some of those things that made us not want to go that way and we have to become responsible.

until you

until you take this word personally.

It ain't doing you no amount of good.

Celestron talking to strong work today guys Elijah took it personally. And when he did he would have to a mountain he said could is if he got away from everything else? He cleared his mind. He's cleared his way of the distraction any begin to so he gets a grown out until what was promised from heaven manifested on Earth. Romans, 8:25 26

Did the Apostle Paul write and he says so because on what is yet to be seen with Paisley keep on waiting for its fulfillment and in a similar way the Holy Spirit takes a hold of us in our human ability to empower us and our own weakness. For example at times. We don't even know how to pray or know the best things to ask for what the Holy Spirit Rises up within us to Super intercede on our behalf pleading the god with emotional sighs too deep for Words. These are grown. We're in this inscription actually allowing play some brownie.

Usually we have time for that. We got a busy schedule.

When's the last time you labored in prayer over somebody usually with the Weavers get furious is when someone gets sick with something deadly. I'm being real mad. Going to make a chain and we say everyone pray hurry practice is desperate now. Why can't we waiting for someone or something to afflict in touch us instead of getting into it right now? And the reason why we wait is because we're not pregnant.

This is a very sobering work.

Do when you get pregnant with the heart of God when you get pregnant when will God is saying it will. Wants to do you don't need tragedy to strike. You already are in the mode with God. God is birthing something to your very life. And you're going to not resist the Holy Spirit, but you're going to say Come Holy Spirit because God wants to unearth that's already established in heaven. Juice me. Here I am.

Hey Elijah, what he did was he made an altar and he use a precious resource and poured it on it. And then the fire of God came down. We don't want to use our precious resources. I'm not talking about money. So hold your wallet. Talk about your time.

That involves giving them both sacrificed David. The angel award went to the Earth was slaying these people because David numbers them. He wasn't supposed to number Israel. Let it be a pain to me. So David go to the threshing floor where was happening at and this guy owns the land and he said King day, but I'll give you the land for free and David said I will not sacrifice unto the Lord something that didn't cost me. David wasn't worried about it cost him to David pay this guy and then he sacrifice to the Lord and the plague that was

we want the move of God. We want the power. We want people to be safe. We want our family to be safe. We want people to be tough, but we do not want it to cost us.

We don't want the Costas. Don't invite my schedule god. Don't know. I'm busy. I'm busy. I got this going on. Kids are in sports.

And then we wonder why our nation's in the state that it's in because the church. Would not influence anymore and they did not want things to cost them. We don't want to cost friendships. We didn't want to cost our our influence in society. Let me tell you something person something from God will cost you your dignity. So you need to get over it.

This is a very sobering word. It won't cost you everything.

And that's why we don't give him everything.

Galatians 4:19 It says this.

one second

Oh there it is. Cool. And you are my dear children, but I am a spiritual labor pains. Once again until the anointed one be fully formed and your hearts by the Apostle Paul when he was talking to the church, but they sold out again and pull racing in you my dear children.

I mowed Over You Jesus disciples with him and this is real with him. And he says oh Jerusalem Jerusalem as a mother and I longed to gather you because Jesus came down with purple praying with purpose and it was the heart of the father. The reason why we're not getting pregnant because we're not driving the heart of the father.

We're not allowing this hard to really deal with our hearts. We spend the whole life our whole lives trying to get Sanctified instead of allowing his word to sanctify us.

We spend our last working on this problem in that problem in this problem in our own little bubble when the truth is God wants you to he wants you to get over you so you can deal with your heart because he had something amazing for you. You will not find fulfillment outside of your purpose of God. You will look for the next thing the next toy the next fast vehicle the next movie the next song and you will not be satisfied because you're outside of your Divine Purpose.

Your purpose is super something from God. He doesn't just want you to birth it out. He wants to teach you how to raise it. God doesn't want you to just make sure that he wants to teach you how to be parents.

Children, if they love me deeply they discipline they may encourage they correct order to support because it wasn't just about making it was about raising a child and have the family doing. It gives you something to birth. It's not just for you to agonize and versatile. She wants you on how to raise how to nurture how to maturity. And that's through travailing, but if you're not willing to travail you're not going to have a birth.

He wants God wants your cooperation. He wants you to cooperate with him or with him. It says in scripture if we suffer with him, but we not also reign with him. I fill up in my body what was lacking in the afflictions of Christ? How was he doing that was it through and preaching place to place and getting beat? Yes. When's the last time you stayed up all night playing?

Just got real dentist.

When's the last time you really pray and ask God to move something and you saw it move?

Usually we don't get that way until the plane until we get a call in the planes going down and everyone screaming mayday.

Why do we have to wait for a plane to crash to get serious with God?

And then we'll say what God gave this to me to teach me know. What scripture was not even biblical?

If you're unwilling to travail you're unwilling to prevail. Do you know what they'll actually means that broke down with Bill actually mean on both sides of the coin Veil means as a person like a king walking by you and you would take your hat off and your your crown and submit to that King is Vail. That's what they all means go low. And so trivial means just go low Elijah with prevailing he put his head between his legs is not just about the physical action. It's about the posture of the heart because when your heart is willing to allow God to break it and begin to get it is processed with them of birthing something you begin to tremble and God will he will because he does not like pieces if you sow in tears, when is the last time you cried over someone besides yourself?

Music we go to God crying over with this person said or with that person dead or how they treated me. Get over it. It's something way bigger for you. I'm being honest with this. This word is really Breaking My Heart.

As of people as a community here at Maple View. What's the last time we really got intentional about seeking his face and praying until something happened? Because that's what your billing is.

I sent it earlier. I should we spend 4 hours praying for someone in 4 minutes with God.

It shows where our priorities at. It shows has really gotten our life.

This is not just going to take it's going to cost you guys. Do you know every Revival cost someone it wasn't started by someone whooping and hollering about how good God is it started by someone going in prayer? You ready to follow me for a moment 120 people in the upper room waiting 10 days after waiting on the promise that God has already did not giving up until we received before you ask. what you said we can have and then all of a sudden we read about in history makers are no different than what we read about Billy Graham history maker Watchman Nee with a pastor and a theologian in China. He was a history major. God wants to make you history-makers. But in order to do that, you must burn something Supernatural Super Six Siege your own Circle.

Get out of your own personal space and let God invaded.

This is the only way it's going to happen. This is God by the name of father. Now. She was with Charles Finney during the Revival. And in Father Nash. He was known as the press that prevailed in prayer. All the records you can read about this on record and would say that before phinneywood going preach at a place months or even weeks in advance father Nash would go there with two other people because he understood the power of agreement for two or three are gathered together in my name, but let me ask you this. So you understand you can have two or three gather. But if you guys are not in agreement that you guys are not in one Accord if you guys are not there, they won't matter if you have your numbers.

Pick it up all the numbers you want to do all you want but if there's not really greiman wrote one this pin doesn't matter. How do you know that? Temple when Solomon begin to dedicate the temple to the Lord it was 120. I'm not mistaken who was Solomon? Leaving right now. But check it out. Correct me if I'm wrong cuz I love you guys. 120 all play the same sound all play the same thing in the Bible said they had the same mine, you know why we gather together in churches and there's no Revival because we do not have the same mind. We really are not an agreement. We have opted against our brother and his so when we go to God nothing gets really answered we get more frustrated and then when I'm gone Pitch guy,

and the truth is we can't even get along with your own spouse.

Don't mistake that we're going to get along as church people. We have to become something more than what we are giving ourselves to right now.

Tyrone one mind one Accord and then it says the glory of God came down and filled the temple is with Solomon and it black thick Cloud came in in the glory of the Lord and we couldn't even get it. Because the glory came down but he came because people were willing to prevailed and actually spend time getting on 12 Accord making a connection understood the purpose of prayer understand why they're praying they understood getting into position.

That nurse took that other people's don't like hearing this but do you know other people's Destinies depend on our love of God? Other people's Destiny born again and not born again depend on our obedience from God. It depends if we obey like Chapel. I don't believe that. Okay. Could you imagine what would happen if you came with obeyed god with a table still been alive?

Yeah.

What happens if it fits Adams obedient to God with a super succeeded his love and affection for Eve. Would we even have been in the fall? No? Is it actually started at all can be saved because of Disobedience your obedience may not you might not think it matters but it matters to the generation next to you and matters to people right in vicinity with you to God because it's launching people and your refusal to get home page with God. It's actually your refusal to love your brother like you love yourself.

And then we go to church. And we were shop. We do our hoo-ha and we're gone. Don't change we may learn a little bit more. That's it.

I said it once I ain't playing Church guys.

Who sings they want the burden of the Lord on them?

Come to the front.

Come on, you got to put your hands up. Come to the front.

I want you to focus intently focused on Holy Spirit. Cuz this isn't something that man could give you this is only given by God. focus on Holy Spirit if you want to buy all you can if you want to stand you can

So you can get your reward a lot of kids you not as clear as day as my eyes were closed.

Hangar mighty name

let me tell you guys something.

Jesus said the Harvest is great, but the laborers are few. Because people just label me to evangelist evangelists evangelist.

I actually love people save an unsaved people go to hell hit bothers me to watch kids. Commit suicide in bothers me get America. Why don't we get the burden of God on us? It bothers me that families are broken up.

And then we cry out. Lord is getting really dark. Stay Awhile you shine brighter?

You guys may be seated. Do you want to stay up here? You're more than for you to stay up here.

early church understood this I understood it was going to cost them. Even their very lives we don't want anymore. We want to be complacent and warming Seeker friendly. I read that people inspired and in Shock by God, then just being around me just because I'm friendly I want to be friendly. I want them to be drawn by God.

When you pray all night long until the Lord comes

When you get burned enough to pray. And not give up to God shows up.

When you're ready to birth and raise something.

When you until you see the Fulfillment of what he has spoken, you're not ready to raise anything.

Get real about this potential. It's very uncomfortable.

Can you watch the news without crying over people?

I don't just preach happy the reason why I'm so joyous because I understand what it takes to birth something. Bring up enjoy its result good because it's a labor in prayer. Don't believe me ask my wife.

It takes something and we refuse to be a church that does not lead by example. We will not leave by just speech anymore. We will lead by example.

You won't tell you going to the trenches if we're not they're fighting along your shoulders.

all this matters to God

So Jesus invade us break it on our hearts break in on our minds breaking on our thoughts and they does God make us completely uncomfortable with complacency make us completely uncomfortable with religion religious ocity. Make us completely uncomfortable with legalism. God make us completely uncomfortable traditions of man.

If you don't know Jesus if you're out there and said hey, I don't know this guy. I heard about him. I don't have a relationship with him. I want to give you the opportunity to start a relationship with this amazing God who loves us deeply richly. If that's you put your hand in the air.
