At first, Hannah prayed, complaining about why Peninnah had children and she didn't. Then one day, when Hannah changed her prayer and asked for a Nazirite instead of just a child, she was able to hold Samuel in her arms. Later, Samuel was used for world evangelization. Like this, if you break your unbelief and restore the correct covenant, the blessing of the throne that saves both individuals and world will arise. From now on, what kind of prayer must you pray?

1. The Prayer of Enjoying the Authority That Moves the Heavenly Throne
In the Bible, it states that God is always with you through the blessing of the heavenly throne. Samuel who believed in this fact moved the heavenly throne; experienced the authority of shining the light to the world; and within the disaster of the invading Philistines, by himself, he gave the prayer of binding the forces of darkness. As a result, during Samuel’s life, wars ceased, and there was peace. Moreover, for those who saw him, the works of serving God began.

2. The Prayer That Relays the Blessing to the Posterity
The blessing that came upon Samuel was relayed to David, the next generation. From a young age, David who was filled with the Spirit of the Lord recorded countless masterpieces. In addition, he possessed both spiritual power that made the evil spirit depart and intellectual power. Moreover, when Goliath insulted God and when everyone else avoided him, young David, by himself, boldly testified the power of Christ.

No matter how trivial your authority and background may look, if you’re in God’s hands, you’ll block crises and save the world. The moment when you restore the correct covenant, God will show you great and unsearchable answers.

Dear God, at this time, may the blessing of the heavenly throne be relayed throughout the world, and may it be a time when You alone receive the glory. I pray in the name of Jesus Christ. Amen.

* Is Faith Revealed in a Moment of Crisis?

When a crisis comes, what action do you take? Are you in a rush to find a solution?
Do you contact people whom you can rely on?
Do you avoid it by assuming that it won’t be a big problem?

A crisis is an opportunity to experience God’s power and to examine your faith. From now on, when you face a crisis, confirm the covenant given by God and challenge toward the prayer of solely looking to God and relying on Him. Even if you just make a resolution to pray, God will show you the future and give you the answer of true peace.
