Isaiah 41:21 (KJV) “Produce your cause, saith the LORD; bring forth your strong reasons, saith the King of Jacob.” Is 33:22 (KJV) “For the LORD is our judge, the LORD is our lawgiver, the LORD is our king; he will save us.” —Many scriptures prove that Satan is our accuser (the accuser of the brethren) and Jesus is our defense lawyer. He continually serves as our High Priest & intercessor, as the accuser of the brethren always seeks to destroy us. We must guard against this by avoiding sin, but if we do sin we must immediately confess & trust in the ever cleansing blood of Christ.
But beyond that THERE IS A WAY TO PRAY in which you present your case to God as a lawyer might. WHY should he answer your prayer? What benefit is it to Him? What scriptures are NOT fulfilled if He does not answer your request? PRESENT YOUR CASE!!!
—As David said in Psalm 30:9 (KJV) “What profit is there in my blood, when I go down to the pit? Shall the dust praise thee? shall it declare thy truth?” —When you pray, envision a court room setting in which you plead your case to God. You stand as a righteous (ONLY by the blood of Christ) son or daughter of the most high. YOU HAVE STANDING!! And you have scripture you can stand upon (I hope) for your request – (not for the new Corvette 😃) – get the point? If you are in God’s will with your request & it makes sense scripturally – present your case in the name of your attorney Jesus to the most high – Judge of the Universe. & believe, —because believing also is important, or your adversary can use that against you. Did you pray & then say “this will never happen”?
Pray a prayer in God’s will from a life dedicated to God & MAKE YOUR CASE to your Judge, King, & Lawgiver (and Father!) He will hear & answer! Love Mel
