New Covenant Prayer

Releasing the Resources of Heaven
through the Name of Jesus

Part 2

b. Ask…Receive…that your joy may be full.

We in the New Covenant have the joy of “praying to the Father in Jesus name” and have the Father grant or give us what we pray for. This assurance we have from the Lord Jesus who is the surety and guarantee of the redemption.

When we receive the answers for our prayers, we can have joy because we received what we have prayed for. Our joy will not be full if our loved ones are sick or our bills are unpaid, financial burdens pressing us. You can’t have joy when these things overloading us. But when you ask God to supply your need and you believe that you have received, your joy can be full. So ask the Father what you need that you joy may be overflowing. This our prayer privilege as in the New Covenant. God wants you full of joy and receiving what you prayed for.

c. Joy before Results

Many times in our walk with the Lord you have to have joy before you receive what you pray for. If you worrying and anxious trying to figure out matters alone, you hinder God from helping you meet you need. Allow him to carry your burdens instead of carrying it yourself.

Ephesians 5:20 gives us the rule to prayer. That is to pray or give thanks in the nameof Jesus to the Father. When we come to the Father in Jesus name we have what we pray for and we will not come empty handed.
