How to Fight Back with Prayer (Triple Threat Series)

Prayer is not just a spiritual discipline but a powerful weapon in the life of a believer. Pastor Lee Jenkins concludes the Triple Threat series by teaching how prayer, alongside giving and fasting, equips Christians to fight spiritual battles. Drawing from the story of King Jehoshaphat in 2 Chronicles 20, he emphasizes making prayer our first response and praising God in advance for the victory.Verses:Matthew 6, 2 Chronicles 20, 2 Chronicles 19, 1 Corinthians 10:4, Romans 8:28Key Points/Topics Covered:Understanding the Triple Threat: Giving, Fasting, and PrayerPrayer as a Weapon, Not Just a DisciplineJehoshaphat's Strategy: Look Up, Look Back, Look Down, Look ForwardThe Power of Praising God in AdvanceReceiving a Rhema Word in the Midst of BattleTime Stamps:00:00 - Introduction to the Triple Threat Series03:45 - The Weapon of Giving and Relief Fund Update07:30 - Reflections on the Churchwide Fast11:00 - Introduction to Prayer as a Weapon15:20 - Story of Pastor Lee's Childhood Fight19:00 - Background on King Jehoshaphat and Judah24:10 - Jehoshaphat's Response to the Threat28:00 - How to Use Prayer as a Weapon32:45 - Look Up: Focusing on God's Power35:00 - Look Back: Remembering God's Faithfulness37:15 - Look Down: Admitting Our Weakness39:00 - Look Forward: Declaring Trust in God42:30 - Receiving a Rhema Word from Jahaziel46:00 - Testimony of the Church Building Acquisition50:15 - Praising God in Advance Like Jehoshaphat54:00 - God Turns Battlefields into Blessing Fields58:00 - Corporate Prayer for Those Facing Battles01:02:00 - Invitation to Accept ChristMain Takeaways:- Prayer should be our first response, not our last resort, in times of trouble.- God often allows battles to confirm we are on the right path and to reveal His power.- Praising God in advance is a faith-filled act that invites divine intervention.Call to Action:Subscribe to the Eagles Nest Church podcast, share this message with someone who needs encouragement, and visit eaglesnestchurch.org to learn more about how you can get involved.
