Fellowship Project: Blog Posting
After you watch the video and read the study notes below, answer these questions here:
Discuss the tenacity it takes in Luke 11:9-10. Discuss what persistent prayer does.
1. Talk about the spirit of boldness and the tenacity and how you cannot fail. Look at these verses that don't give you an option. If you knock, the door is going to be open to you. If you ask, you're going to receive, if you seek, you're going to find There is no option for failure.
2. Talk about how we may need to re-adjust and get into faith instead of fear and not think about failure
3. Ask yourself, what is it that I need to do to get ahold of this fire? God is giving it out and He wants this generation to be on fire. He wants us to not take no for an answer.
4. Pray for each other and meditate on the Lord.
"What I noticed was revival, and the move of God comes when a voice comes forth and says, “We need to get back to seeking God and praying and having the tenacity and not letting go until we get it."
~Kevin Zadai
“Ask, and the gift is yours. Seek, and you’ll discover. Knock, and the door will be opened for you.”
—Matthew 7:7 TPT
DISCUSSION:
The Lord has asked us to keep knocking and the door will be opened. In Mark 8:22-24, Jesus opens the eyes of a blind man. The first time Jesus laid hands on him he could only see a little bit. To the guy, when he saw people walking around they looked like trees. In other words, it was blurry to him. Jesus said, “What do you see?” the blind man said, “I see men but they're like trees.” Jesus laid hands on him again, and he received sight that time. It wasn't the power of God that was lacking that it happened that way. It was the fact that the guy needed to receive and Jesus was helping him to receive by laying hands on him again.
• We have to agree with Jesus that we’re going to have what we ask for in prayer.
• We have to believe that we’re going to receive it before we receive it.
• Agree with Him on this that you know that if you knock, the door is going to be open.
• It says that there is no other option except that it will be opened.
• The idea is that we keep on knocking, and never give up.
• Tell the Lord that no matter how long it takes, you’re going to get it.
Right now, I’m believing for 1 billion souls to come to the Lord. We have a lot of work to do here at Warrior Notes. I'm going to keep knocking. I'm not going to let that slip. I want the Spirit of God to move in such a strong way that I see a billion souls. That is like one-eighth of the Earth. I want more than that, but I'll just start with 1 billion. How about one-eighth of the Earth comes into the Lord?
ASK AND YOU WILL RECEIVE
❖ Luke 11:9-10 TPT:
So it is with your prayers. Ask and you’ll receive. Seek and you’ll discover. Knock on heaven’s door, and it will one day open for you. Every persistent person will receive what he asks for.
Every persistent seeker will discover what he needs. And everyone who knocks persistently will one day find an open door.
• Every persistent person will get what he asked for.
• Every persistent seeker will discover what he needs.
• Everyone who knocks persistently will one day find an open door.
I know without a doubt that if I continue to be persistent, and diligent that I'm going to get what I ask for in prayer. When I pray, I believe that I will receive it or I wouldn't even pray. I'm not there to beg God for something He wants to give me anyway. I already know what His will is because I have His Word.
As you study the Word of God, you'll start to know God better, and then you’ll know what it is that He wants. If you find out what He's already said that He's given, then when you pray, you know that door is going to be open. You know that you will receive. That is the kind of mindset you have to have. I believe that I receive when I
pray, I don't wait. I'm never going to let go because God is not going to start something and not finish it.
He started your life. He is the author. He started it. He wrote your life, and He's the finisher of your life, your faith. In the Word, it says that you have to believe that God exists and that He is a rewarder of those who diligently seek Him (Hebrews 11:6). Right before that verse if you look at verses 4 and 5, it's talking about Enoch. Enoch walked with God and he was so obedient. He pleased God so much that God just took him, but he was known to please God. Without faith, it is impossible to please God.
When you meet Enoch, he will talk to you about how diligent he was. He's going to talk to you about the fact that it wasn't always easy. He was a prophet, so he had to go and prophesy to two cities.
All of this happened right before the flood. Enoch had to prophesy to people to repent, just like Jonah did. God knew that He had to do this, and it wasn't easy, Enoch kept in there as a prophet for 300 years, and He walked with God, so I know that you can do this. I know that you can keep knocking and believing.
• Be persistent.
• Don't ever give up.
• You’ve already won.
• When you pass away and you go to Heaven, it's a promotion.
• It's a big celebration.
SENT FOR THE SAKE OF THE PEOPLE
When I died, I was received into Heaven. It was a celebration. I was told I had been faithful. I was asked by Jesus if I would go back. I came back, but I know if I would have pushed it, I could have stayed. Jesus said to me that if I go back, then I will help a whole generation. He said, “It's the people that I'm sending you to that need to hear what you've got to say so you have to go back.” He said, “It's not about you, Kevin. It's about those I've sent you to”. I know that I'm sent, and that's why I'm doing what I'm doing. I didn't do this out of my own idea. I was sent.
