“I will give you the keys of the kingdom of heaven; whatever you bind on earth will be bound in heaven, and whatever you loose on earth will be loosed in heaven” – Matthew 16:19
There is no doubt that problem-solving is a difficult process for everyone. Some problems get solved easily, while others linger on, even in an embarrassing state. There is no better way of solving problems than praying and then working toward achieving your desired goals. These two must go together, i.e., prayer and work. Some work but don’t pray, or they pray sparingly, not consistently. Others pray they don’t work, or are not doing the right job. Some of the activities we engage in do not work. But a mere dissipation of energy in the wrong direction.
For anything to manifest on earth, it must first take form in the spiritual realm. To create anything in the spiritual realm, you must always pray without ceasing. Anytime you pray properly, you create your desire in the spiritual realm, which will manifest on earth at God’s appointed time. But you must be prepared to work as well. The work of your hands places you in a good position where divine providence will locate you. Therefore, the work of your hands is the medium that God employs to bless you when you ask from God through prayers.
Conversely, if you desire to change a bad situation you are currently going through, which could be anything like ill health or business losses, you must pray while focusing on what you desire. Then, after prayers, you must proceed to do the right work while you allow God to take the lead as well. During this period, you must listen carefully to what the Spirit tells you and obey.
The keys to bind and to loosen conditions, whether in the spiritual realm or the physical, were given to Peter by Jesus. Jesus gave the keys to Peter because Peter was able to recognize Jesus as the Christ of God. (Matthew 16:16). But Jesus also knew that no ordinary mortal would understand that mystery, except by the power of God (Ref: Matthew 16:17). Beloved, this same power of God now lives in you but you must do some work to activate the power!
PRAYER
Father, in the name of Jesus Christ, I align with Christ in me this minute, and I bind and loosen every undesirable condition in my life now! Today, I take total authority of the keys to thy kingdom, and by the power of the Holy Spirit, I have overcome every misfortune. Thank you, father. AMEN.
