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.

New Covenant Prayer

Releasing the Resources of Heaven
Through the Name of Jesus

Part 1

Let us look at the text from the Bible. Reading from John 16:23, 23:

The Name of Jesus gives the believer access to the throne of Father. It is the key that unlocks heaven’s resources and meets every need on the earth.

The disciples were told by Jesus to pray to the Father in His name. For our prayers to reach heaven and heard before the Father, we must come through the key of the name of Jesus.

Jesus is at the right hand of the Father as our Mediator, Intercessor, Advocate and Lord. That is His present day ministry at the throne for the new creation.

You shall ask nothing in my name

This day that He is speaking about is the day when He is raised from the dead and seated at the right hand of the Father as our Great High Priest and Lord. “In that day you shall not pray to me…” He is telling them not to pray or ask Him. IN the Old Covenant, it was a norm for the Israelite to ask and present his needs to the priests or the High priests who were serving in the temple.

But now Jesus is giving the guidelines for New Covenant praying. Praying to the Father in His name.

This is where the church has missed it. New Covenant prayers are prayed based upon the rules and guidelines that Jesus has given to us.
