Beloved,
You should also pray, including in the spirit during the hour that you spend with the Lord.
To pray is to declare over a situation what God has said about it. If you don’t know what God has said about the issue you must find out from Scripture or you can not pray effectively about the situation.
Concerning sickness, for example, God has said that you are healed! Isaiah 53:4,5; Matthew 8:17; 1 Peter 2:24. Therefore, that is what you should declare over a situation of sickness or disease.
Most of the 15 minutes or so you spend in prayer during the hour with the Lord, should be spent praying in the spirit. What does that mean? It means to pray in tongues according to 1 Corinthians 14:2, 14. That is absolutely THE most effective way to pray according to Romans 8:26-27.
If you have been born again, but have not yet being baptized with the Holy Spirit, study these scriptures: Acts 1:4-5; Acts 2:1-4; Acts 8:14-20; Acts 9:10-17; Acts 10:44-46; Acts 19:1-6; 1 Corinthians 14:18.
Then ask God to baptize you with the Holy Spirit and receive your prayer language of tongues. Thereafter you should pray in that language some every day.
I love you,
Pastor Shina
