Dear One,
Don't fall for the devil's temptation to have a parade for him, speaking about every detail of his harassment of you and the evil deeds that he did to you or your family or your friends. When asking others to pray for you or for someone for whom you are concerned, give the facts, the necessary ones, but don't belabor the conversation by telling all the nitty gritty details of the devil's horrible works.
You are giving glory to him when you give detail after detail of his deeds. Just think how much more quickly the solution to the problem can come if you use the same amount of breath praying in the Spirit about the matter instead of glorifying the works of the devil in the matter.
When you ask someone to pray for you or your family, instead of glorifying the evil works you should include in your request for prayer the scriptural promise relating to My will in the matter or speak confidence in Me to intervene in the matter. Those are valuable words spoken because you have given glory to Me and My ability to overcome the evil circumstance or troublesome situation.
Read about the ministry of Jesus and how He didn't ask for a lengthy description of the details of the effects of the devil in the matters, He simply cast out the demons or healed the sick. He knew that the devil was behind all destructive situations and circumstances. He didn't ask for explanations which would glorify the works of evil. He merely cast out the demons, healed the sick, and then went on to the next person who needed His power to heal.
When you constantly persist in talking about the works of evil in a matter, you glorify them, covering your part of the earth with glory for the devil,
So when you ask for prayers, limit the description of the problem and speak My promise in the matter, speaking My willingness to heal, speaking about the power of My Holy Spirit and His ability to bring a solution to the matter. Use your breath to pray, not complain and persist in grumbling. You more you complain and grumble, the more unbelief enters into you and your prayer partners.
Your mantra has always been, "I know Him in whom I have believed and I am persuaded that He is able to keep that which I have committed to Him against that day." Speak that confidence instead of speaking the details of the evil works.
Your Loving Father
