Also, we are to “pray always” (Luke 21:36). “Pray without ceasing” (1 Thessalonians 5:17). The reasons are many. One reason is so we will be totally focused on the LORD, to sit with HIM in HEAVENLY PLACES, while GOD’S angel takes over the preaching, doing it quickly.8 Ephesians 2:5 says, “Even when we were dead in sins, [GOD] hath quickened us together with CHRIST (by POWER ye are saved), And hath raised us up together, and made us sit together in heavenly places in CHRIST JESUS: That in the ages to come HE might shew the exceeding riches of HIS power in his kindness toward us through CHRIST JESUS” (Ephesians 2:5-7). We can fly like eagles in the SPIRIT in prayer to sit with JESUS in HEAVENLY PLACES when the time comes that the Angel does a quick work of preaching the GOSPEL to the whole world. We have the view from HEAVENLY PLACES. Come with us there. Get ready now by saying this prayer. Prayer My LORD and my GOD, have mercy upon my soul, a sinner. 1 I believe that JESUS CHRIST is the SON of the living GOD. 2 I believe that HE died on the cross and shed HIS precious blood for the forgiveness of all my former sins. 3 I believe that GOD raised JESUS from the dead by the power of the HOLY SPIRIT 4 and that HE sits on the right hand of GOD at this moment, hearing my confession of sin and this prayer. 5 I open up the door of my heart, and I invite YOU into my heart, LORD JESUS. 6 Wash all of my filthy sins away in the precious blood that YOU shed in my place on the cross at Calvary. 7 YOU will not turn me away, LORD JESUS; YOU will forgive my sins and save my soul. I know because YOUR WORD, the Bible, says so. 8 YOUR WORD says that YOU will turn no one away, and that includes me. 9 Therefore, I know that YOU have heard me, and I know that YOU have answered me, and I know that I am saved. 10 And I thank YOU, LORD JESUS, for saving my soul, and I will show my thankfulness by doing as YOU command and sin no more.11
