Praying God’s Way - Voice of God with Joseph Z

Join Joseph Z in today’s inspiring broadcast as he guides us on how to pray effectively using the four forms of prayer to achieve breakthroughs in our lives.

Joseph explains that effective prayer is a combination of supplication, prayer, intercession, and giving thanks. He defines supplication as the act of seeking, asking, and entreating God or others, emphasizing the importance of persistence in our supplications until we see results.

He elaborates on prayer, interpreting the Greek word for prayer, "Proseuche," which signifies both a prayer and a place of prayer. He highlights the power of unified prayer, referencing how it led to Peter’s miraculous release from prison as described in Acts 12:5-16. Joseph reveals that prayers offered together in a gathering hold great potency, creating a powerful response from the Spirit.

Joseph goes on to explain intercession, a powerful form of prayer directed to God on behalf of oneself or another person. He helps us understand that Jesus is our great High Priest and Intercessor, interceding for us before the throne of heaven at all times. Notably, he points out that intercession involves confronting conflicts in the spiritual realm until a breakthrough is achieved. He references Luke 22:31, which shows how Jesus interceded for Peter and continues to intercede for each of us today.

Lastly, he explains the final form of prayer, which is giving thanks (Eucharistia). This form signifies both gratitude and worship directed toward God. To illustrate this point, he references Psalm 149:5-9, which shows how praise and worship act as a two-edged sword in the hands of believers, enabling them to execute vengeance on nations and punishment on peoples, as well as carry out written judgments. He clarifies that combining praises with God’s word creates a space of authority. He encourages us to pray effectively so we can make progress in every area of our lives.
