Got an email from MG in Ireland.
She writes:

"I would like to join the Prayer Academy but this is my problem:
After years of being a prayer eagle with a lot of spiritual knowledge about the devices of the enemy, l have overcome problems caused or that came through people who are not from my bloodline.
Now, the enemy of a man are those of his own household. My biological father is an occult man who practices neacromancy, divination and raised evil wicked alters affecting me and my siblings.
My question is, if l join the prayer academy will l get
deliverance from his evil grip on my life?
I find it hard to believe that God can do something about my health, marital and financial problems because it seems like the evil forces of my father's house will not bow to the name of Jesus and God will do nothing about it.
I've lost confidence in God's willingness to deliver me and turn my life around..."

My response was short and swift:
Dear MG,
Thank you for your email.
With this statement:
"I've lost confidence in God's willingness to deliver me
and turn my life around."
You are showing me that you have ZERO faith in God.
And ZERO understanding of scripture. And that's a pity!
Consequently I will advise you NOT to waste your money or time to join the Academy.
When the goliath of doubt in ruling your heart you should
not expect God to answer you at all.
God bless you

Why am I showing you this email?
There are 2 deep lessons here.
Lesson #1:
She has managed to elevate her tiny problem above God's ability to solve.
She has fallen into the cave of doubt.
Causing this scripture to kick in automatically.
James 1:6-8 says:
But he must ask in faith, without any doubts, for the one
who has doubts is like a wave of the sea that is driven
and tossed by the wind.
Such a person should not expect to receive anything from
the Lord. He is a double-minded man, unstable in all his ways.
Lesson #2:
[Please allow me to be a bit blunt here]
She is NO prayer eagle at all.
She is stumbling around in the dark ... thrashing about wildly
but going nowhere.
I checked our records.
She has not participated in any of our programs at all.
I'm not sure she even joined us at the gates of the new year...
... where we set out to create CHAOS and wreck havoc
in the camp of the enemy.
So they will have no option but to release our blessings and flee.
Seriously.
But she is happy to call herself a "prayer eagle."
In my book ...
When I use the term prayer eagle, I usually am referring to
someone who has ACHIEVED a tangible "verifiable" level of
success and victory in prayer over a long period of time.
And this success in prayer spills over, impacts and transforms those around him or her (even if they are agents of darkness).
Like Daniel in the Bible.
Like the thousands who share testimonies here day and night.

The good news is:
There is still HOPE for her.
MG can still become a prayer eagle (it will take time) if only she will humble herself and allow the Holy Spirit to teach her.
The school of the Holy Spirit can sometimes be rough and tough.
It is eagle's training school.
With a strict code of discipline.
Hebrews 12:11 says:
But no discipline in its time seems to be joyful, but it is sorrowful; but in the end it yields the fruit of peace and of righteousness to those who have been trained by it.
I must congratulate you
for sticking with our rigorous prayer marathons.
I just saw an email from a sister who was praying these prayers from her hospital bed ...
... and the doctors had no choice but to discharge her!
The testimonies flooding my inbox are just mind-blowing.

Like this hot, fresh one from Veronica:
"I am speechless, after storming the gate with the prayers
and Esther fast I ask God to give me a job so I will be able to
pay tithes to him guess what?
Today after praying at 12.00 P.M I received a call. I was offered a job after being unemployed for 9 months.
Paying more than my last job I had. Praise God.Thank you for your ministry and to teach me how to prayer. Glory to God."

Now, there's an eagle in my book.
For you my friend I see nothing but VICTORY ahead.
Yours is definitely ON THE WAY, provided you keep your fire of prayer burning - as you are doing.
Be An Overcomer
