Happy new month. There’s something Apostle Arome Osayi taught about how to grow deep in God. He said if you decide, for the next 120 days, to pray in tongues from 12am - 2am, before you elapse 60 days you will start getting announcements from God. Those were the words he used but this is what they mean. Firstly, having a designated time of prayer means you’ve decided to engage in priesthood in the way of the New Covenant. In the Old Covenant, the consecrated priests offered sacrifice and burned incense at the altar twice a day. This was called the hour of incense. Zecharias did it in Luke 1:9-10 “According to the custom of the priest’s office, his lot was to burn incense when he went into the temple of the Lord. And the whole multitude of the people were praying without at the time of incense.” However, our own sacrifice is Jesus and our incense is prayers from a heart filled with the Spirit: Psalm 141:2 “Let my prayer be set forth before thee as incense; and the lifting up of my hands as the evening sacrifice.” Revelation 8:4 “…And the smoke of the incense, which came with the prayers of the saints, ascended up before God out of the angel’s hand.” Our prayers are incense before the Lord, and if you choose to offer this daily in a priestly fashion, the Lord will start revealing His ways to you. You’d be creating a spiritual altar since you’re bringing the sacrifice of prayers to the Lord. This changes everything in the life of a Christian. This act of consistent prayers becomes the anchor point of your life — from here God will start administering every aspects of your life. Your heart will be opened to hear Him, your flesh will be humbled to obey Him. Your spirit will be strengthened to walk with Him, your mind will be renewed to know His will. You will be transformed. You will be strong in the Lord and powerful in His might. Your fears will cease and your worries will disappear. Lastly, you will start receiving divine revelations through both visions and encounters. In short, you will grow strong in God. It all starts with starting. 12am - 2am daily. All the questions bothering your mind? God will answer it there. You can’t pray for two hours? No problem. Do 30 minutes. You don’t have the capacity for 30? Do 15 minutes. Just don’t stop. Be consistent. Finally, you have the chance to start your year afresh spiritually this month. Start. God bless you.
