Pastor Joseph Prince shares this sermon titled “How to Pray and See Results.” The text for the message is from James 5:17–18. “”Elijah was a man subject to like passions as we are, and he prayed earnestly that it might not rain, and it rained not on the earth by the space of three years and six months.”
Pastor Joseph teaches us in this message how to pray and see results. There are some lessons we can learn from praying. When we pray, it’s not to soothe; we pray to bring heaven down to earth to get results. Since the cross of Jesus Christ’s blessing is easy, it’s no longer contingent on your obedience. We don’t pray to get influence with God; we pray because we have influence with Him. It’s not about how you pray; it’s about who to pray to. God said that if you don’t keep My commandments and you turn away from Me, I will withhold the heavens from giving their rain. So Elijah prayed. Elijah was the prophet of the hour at that time, and “Elijah prayed earnestly that it might not rain, and it rained not on the earth for three years and six months. And he prayed again. After three and a half years, he prayed again: “And the heavens gave rain, and the earth brought forth her fruit.”
At that time, Israel was in rebellion against God; it rained not on the earth by the space of three years and six months.” At that time, Israel was in rebellion against God, high priestess of Baal, and as a nation they have turned their backs to God, the God who brought them out of Egypt, out of the house of bondage, to bring them through the wilderness and right into the land flowing with milk and honey.
We have to know that as Christians, our prayers have influence, and we have to know that God is always with us.
