Day 8 of 10 Days of Prayer
Day 8 Of 10 Days of Prayer
By: Zach Sloane
Only Believe
Remember when Jesus was walking with his disciples in Mark 11. Jesus was hungry, goes and looks for some fruit on a fig tree, and after finding none, curses it. Within one day it withers up and dies.
When Peter points it out to Jesus, instead of giving him a moral lesson or a philosophical response to why it did not produce fruit He says this:
Mark 11:22-24 (NRSV)
Jesus answered them, “Have faith in God. Truly I tell you, if you say to this mountain, ‘Be taken up and thrown into the sea,’ and if you do not doubt in your heart, but believe that what you say will come to pass, it will be done for you. So I tell you, whatever you ask for in prayer, believe that you have received it, and it will be yours.
WOW! Jesus in one statement flips upside down so much of our thoughts about prayer and He re-focuses Peter away from what didn’t happen yesterday to what can happen today.
He tells Peter, “it’s on you.” And it really us. We can speak to mountains! We need to!
Prayer Directives:
Whatever mountain or obstacle stands in your way, speak to it.
Whatever faith dream or vision rises in your heart give it voice, no longer pre-occupied with why it didn’t happen yesterday, but focused on speaking into today!
Thank God for the power and authority he has given us. Pray we realize it!
Speak to sickness and command it gone, religion, addiction, and poverty to go.
Get creative. Dare to ASK and DARE to believe. Give it a voice.
Let us know what you are believing for and we will believe with you that “it will be yours!”

“Believing for a network of IMPACT churches that represents the wonderful love of God in an authentic way. Believing for a body of believers to rise up together and manifest a culture of unconditional love that melts the hardest hearts and brings healing to the hurt and broken. I believe that God’s glory will be revealed through a company that humbly serves and loves. “The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with you all. Amen.” Romans 16:24
I have a dream! I am believe for the restoration of every area of my family, spiritual, physical, financial, social, emotional, mental and material. I speak to the mountain that tries to stop my family and I from fulfilling our Destiny in Christ and command it to be cast into the sea in Jesus name. I released the Anointing of Holy Spirit and the Power of God in my families lives right now in Jesus name amen. Praise God.
Amen! Believing and agreeing with this declaration and receiving it for my own family. Thank you Jesus!
Believing for a body of worshippers walking in the full authority of Matthew 10:7-8. Lord, let us demonstrate Your Kingdom come and realized here on earth. May we stand on Your truth and ONLY BELIEVE as we declare the name of Jesus over every mountain in our lives.
Today, let all of God’s people walk by faith and not by sight. Let them stand in the righteousness of God through Jesus and proclaim things that are not yet as though they are now! Let us look for all opportunity to declare the power of God’s higher principals and authority to every situation and change the world around us! Let Jesus be glorified through our words and deeds today!
Very good word today Zack. We are believing for the restoration of the body, the province and the restoration of a city. We thank God that he is in the restoration business not the deterioration business .
I’m believing that believers are courageous enough to choose to believe Truth in every single area of life and then release it 💕
Father, thank you that you always hear us. And if we know that you hear us, we know that we have what we asked of you (1John 5:15).We thank You and receive answers to our prayers for our church, our communities, our families and ourselves as your children. Shine your light through us and love through us. We receive an abundance of testimonies among us to the praise and glory of your name, for it is you our God who works in us to will and to act according to your good purpose (Phil.2:13). Every evil that does not exist in heaven, bondages, sicknesses and poverty, we bind out of our lives and the lives of our children for all generations. We receive your faithfulness, your joy, your peace and every blessing from your throne of grace (Matt.18:18, Psalm 100:5) and we thank you, in Jesus Name, Amen.
Amen!!!
Thank you for the power of our words that we can speak life where there is death. In the name of Jesus I speak life, strength, health and for people to know who they are in Christ!
