SEEDS OF DESTINY MESSAGE FOR TODAY 9TH OCTOBER 2026
Our anchor Scripture makes it clear that the lifestyle of prayer is a major channel or pathway to the flow of the Blessing of God. Throughout Scripture, men and women who walked in the Blessing were men and women who lived the life of prayer.
Jabez’s life demonstrated the power of prayer. Though he was born in sorrow, yet he prayed down the Blessing of God upon his life against all odds. He made up his mind that at the altar of prayer he must also become a blessed person, and a symbol of the Blessing.
The story of Abraham is another clear Scriptural example. Abraham had a personal prayer walk with God, rising early to stand before the Lord at the place of prayer (Genesis 19:27). He was also an intercessor who stood in the gap for Sodom and Gomorrah (Genesis 18:23–26). Abraham was a person who prayed personal and intercessory prayers; he became the symbol of God’s Blessing.
Now, how does prayer position us for the Blessing of God?
Prayer positions us in the Presence of God. Elijah says in 1 Kings 17:1, “…As the LORD God of Israel liveth, before whom I stand…”
A stand before God talks about a position of prayer. Psalm 16:11 states, in His presence is fullness of joy and at His right hand are pleasures forevermore. Therefore, the man who prays is a man who is positioned in the Presence of God, and a man positioned in the Presence of God is the man positioned in the realm of pleasures.
Prayer envelopes our lives with the fragrance of divine favour. Esther was a woman of prayer and fasting (Esther 4:16), and as a result, she obtained favour in the sight of all who looked upon her (Esther 2:15–17).
I would like you to understand that Esther did not suddenly talk about prayer and fasting when confronted with the threat of extermination; that was her lifestyle. It was her regular practice. If something is not your lifestyle, you cannot suddenly begin to do it in a time of critical urgency. No wonder she lived in the realm of favour; and favour brings additions to life.
So, prayer envelops the saints with the fragrance of favour. And that fragrance of favour provokes the additions of positive things into our lives (Acts 2:47).
Beloved, a consistent life of prayer keeps you in God’s Presence, surrounds you with divine favour, and positions you for His Blessing.
REMEMBER THIS: Prayer positions God’s people in His Presence, where His blessing, joy, pleasure, and favour are released.
ASSIGNMENTS:
- Cultivate a lifestyle of consistent personal prayer and fellowship with God.
