Philippians 4:6 (AMP)

Do not be anxious or worried about anything, but in everything [every circumstance and situation] by prayer and petition with thanksgiving, continue to make your [specific] requests known to God.

You need certain tools in the process of your formation through prayer. Remember, prayer is not for your information but for your formation. You need to understand that prayer goes with planning. Frustration comes in prayer due to a lack of planning.

As much as you can be led by the Spirit, you need to plan for your prayer. Ask yourself what is the objective of the prayer. Prepare your prayer points before you pray so that when the answers come, you'll recognize that your prayers have been answered.

Sometimes, you need to fast while engaging the force of prayer. Ministry has different assignments, and you need the energy of prayer and fasting to cover your assignment.

Prayer and faith go hand in hand, so while you pray for that car, that mansion, that contract, or that marriage, ensure that you use the God-kind of faith that will secure what you are praying for. Prayer brings a rich encounter with the Holy Ghost, so be expectant that God will speak to you in your prayer time.

PROPHETIC DECLARATION

When I pray, Heaven answers. I stand at the crossroads of divinity and humanity and exercise power and dominion through prayer in the mighty Name of Jesus! Amen.
