"May the grace of the Lord Jesus Christ and love of God, and the fellowship (communion) of the Holy Spirit be with you all." - 2 Corinthians 13:14 Prayer is when you turn away from the world and are preoccupied with the "things of God." The Greek word "Koinonia" (fellowship, communion) is when you turn away from the "things of God" and are preoccupied with God Himself. As we go inward in growing communion with Him, we learn how to call forth the living water within us and release it in an outward flood that transforms lives. PRAYER IS LOVE To love God is to seek His presence, to seek intimacy and union. (We do not love God if we do not want to spend time with Him.) Love is also communication. (We do not love God if we do not want to talk with Him and get to know Him better.) Do you desire that Christ should dwell in your heart by faith? "Behold, I stand at the door and knock; if any one hears my voice and opens the door, I will come in to him and eat with him, and he with me." - Revelation 3:20 QUESTIONS TO ASK YOURSELF: How do my earthly relationships reflect my relationship with God? What do they reveal about how I am treating Him? ALBERT FINCH MINISTRY

He has called us not to "wonder about the future," but to create it through the knowledge of His living Word and prayer! What our Father gives is access to the future right now. To bring manifestation is to pray and believe for the reality of God's Kingdom to manifest on earth. "Pray, then, in this way:.......on earth as it is in Heaven." - Matthew 6:9,10 Christ pours the limitless oil of the anointing in us so that we can shine and burn continually and perpetually with the glory and love of the Lord to the world. There's no limitation for the workings of Jesus through you because He's constantly pouring His workings in you, the rich oil of His anointing for harvest. The ministry of the Christian is the ministry of the Spirit. Other men have intellectuality, but the Christian is supposed to be the possessor of the Spirit. The road to true intimacy with God is an inward journey, proceeding into His Presence through the entrance gate of quietness of the soul. "Be still and know that I am God...." Psalm 46:10 AFFIRMATIONS: I am called to walk the earth, do good on the earth, and to do it in the power of the Holy Spirit. While I am called to do good works, and help people practically, my primary calling is to inspire people to seek God. I persist day by day, and week by week, until I have drawn near enough to God that I can hear His voice. ALBERT FINCH MINISTRY

We as kings and priests in God's kingdom are the anointed ones, the sons and daughters of fresh oil, endued with gifts of power, strength, and grace to enable us to accomplish the work we're called to (our DESTINY). If you allow the conditions of life to dictate your level of worship, they will also determine and limit your altitude. "Those whose wait on the Lord....shall mount up with wings like eagles." - Isaiah 40:31 The purity God requires from us is impossible for us. We must allow Him to produce it in us. Purity produces in us godliness when we consistently sit at the feet of Jesus. "...beholding the glory of the Lord, are being changed into His likeness ....." - 2 Corinthians 3:18 Pay no attention to the present affairs of your life -- Seek to un-busy your thoughts -- Behold Him in the most inward recess of your spirit that you can find. AFFIRMATIONS:I start thinking outside myself and inside the Word -- and let Jesus bless the world through me! When I have the Word of God deposited in my spirit, I'll act on it no matter what the circumstances. As I keep pushing out the limits and going further in my effort to advance the purposes of God, I am taking my life to a higher level. Isaiah 61: 1, 2-- is a familiar passage, yet ever-powerful -- in order to understand more about wielding our God-given authority in the power of His might. "The Spirit of the Lord is on me, because the Lord has anointed me to proclaim good news to the poor. He has sent me to bind up the brokenhearted, to proclaim freedom for the captives and release from darkness for the prisoners, to proclaim the year of the Lord’s favor...." There is an anointing available to us to proclaim, prophesy, decree, and declare a season of favor! What's more, the impact of this anointing really comes into position once we come to understand what it means to be a servant of the Lord. Being God's servant means there is an authority available to us under or in the anointing, that in the moment we decree "favor" over someone's life they have to come into favor! It'sunder the province of an open heaven, when there's a realm of the spirit, that we can make decrees that change destinies through the spoken word. No matter what your circumstances may be, you can find Joy in His Presence. On some days Joy is generously strewn along your life-path, glistening in the sunlight. On days like that, being content is as simple as breathing the next breath or taking the next step. Other days are overcast and gloomy; you feel the strain of the journey, which seems endless. Dull gray rocks greet your gaze and cause your feet to ache. Yet Joy is still attainable. Search for it as for hidden treasure. Begin by remembering that He has created this day; it is not a chance occurrence. Recall that He is present with you whether you sense His Presence or not. Then, start talking with Him about whatever is on your mind. Rejoice in the fact that He understands you perfectly, and that He knows exactly what you are experiencing. As you continue communing with Him, your mood will gradually lighten. Awareness of His marvelous Companionship can infuse Joy into the grayest day. "Surely you have granted him eternal blessings and made him glad with the joy of your presence." - Psalm 21:6"And if you look for it as for silver and search for it as for hidden treasure." - Proverbs 2:4 ALBERT FINCH MINISTRY

When the Lord Jesus was on the cross, He had authority to come down if He so wished. By the same token, those who are crucified with the Lord can let their old man come down from the cross if they so choose. The best warfare to engage in against the devil is to magnify the Lord Jesus in your life. The Bible declares, "Let God arise, let his enemies be scattered..." Psalm 68:1. Worship is the spiritual equivalent of the power of magnification. When you begin to worship, you ascend to join the Object of your adoration. If you are soaring in His presence, then you are looking down on your problems. "Oh, magnify the Lord with me." - Psalm 34:3 If we would pray more for others, promote what God is doing through others rather than ourselves, then the Lord would begin to promote us.
