• Man fell from dominion
 MISPLACED VALUE

• Matthew 6:26-27
New International Version
26 Look at the birds of the air; they do not sow
or reap or store away in barns, and yet your
heavenly Father feeds them. Are you not much
more valuable than they? 27 Can any one of you
by worrying add a single hour to your life[a]?

 KINGDOM & PRAYER

• A kingdom is a Country with a Government

the constitution.

• Petitioning is a Legal Demand made on the
government based on the CONSTITUTIONAL
LAW.

an authority based on rights.

what is already yours
promised by your
government.

•Promise
•Praying according to God’s
will.
 WHAT IS PRAYER?
• PRAYER is the legal demand for PROMISES and
RIGHTS made by a CITIZEN in good standing to
the government based on the Constitutional
Law.

what it promises for the CITIZEN by RIGHT.
• Prayer is presenting the Constitutional Promises
back to the government.
 THAT IS WHY….
• You need to read
the book- THE
BIBLE.
 THAT IS WHY….
PRAYER IS NOT
BEGGING. IT IS
DEMANDING.

• 14 if my people, who are called by my name,
will humble themselves and pray and seek my
face and turn from their wicked ways, then I
will hear from heaven, and I will forgive their
sin and will heal their land. 15 Now my eyes
will be open and my ears attentive to the
prayers offered in this place.

• and be led forth in peace;
• the mountains and hills
• will burst into song before you,
• and all the trees of the field
