Prayer moves from asking for what you need, through protection and worship, to a mountaintop moment where the Holy Spirit makes Jesus feel more real than anything else. At that peak, worries and attacks disappear. The speaker says returning from there with that power lets you live victoriously.
Chapters
Please don't misunderstand me when I say there comes a point in prayer where you are mesmerized, to where you've meditated on him as the Holy Spirit has revealed him, and, and now he's captured your attention and he becomes the sole focus. Yeah, you have the prayer requests. Lord, bless me, help me, heal me, strengthen me and my family and everyone I love. And then you have spiritual warfare. I rebuke the power of the enemy. I come against every attack of the devil. I come against all of the strategies. You pray for your city, you pray for your church, and then you worship, and then you read the word, and then there just comes a moment where it's just him. And now you're in the highest point. Your soul, your mind, your emotions are held captive by the beauty of his presence. And in that moment, the Holy Spirit is revealing Jesus to you. There are moments when the Holy Spirit can reveal the presence of Jesus in such a way that the presence of Jesus becomes more real than your physical surroundings, where everything fades into the background— every worry, every concern, every attack— and you go to such a height in glory that you ascend above the noise. On the mountaintop, there's no concern about what's happening in the valley. But when you go back to the valley, you come with power.
