Four areas covered in prayer from this passage:

1. Worship 2. Petition 3. Repentance 4. Protection

1. Worship: Luke 11:2

Spend a few moments praising and worshipping God.  As you worship He(God) becomes enthroned on your praises.  Ways to worship. A song, thankfulness, and perhaps speaking of His greatness. This will release the Kingdom of God in your life.

2. Petition: Luke 11:3

After you worship and manifest the Kingdom you then can begin to ask God for what you are in need of.  This is also a good time to ask for a word from Him regarding what you are going through.

3. Repentance: Luke 11:4

You notice when Jesus is teaching on prayer there's no mention of repentance until way down on the list. Not that repentance isn't important, He already knows what you've done and He knows as well that if you can get into His presence that you have the Grace to truly repent.

4. Protection: Luke 11:4

This is the end of the prayer time, which indicates though it is important to ask for protection, God's not too concerned about what the enemy can do. In this time you can pray for protection over your family, job, business, schools, etc. It's also a good place to pray favour over the different areas of your life.

 

Luke 11:5-10 Posture and Passion of Pray:

Relationship with God, because of the Blood of Jesus, brings us into intimacy with the Holy Spirit. Intimacy and relationship brings you to the Door, but Persistency and consistency opens it up. Through faith and patience you possess the promises.  Ask, seek, knock and it will be opened up to you. You say what will be opened up? Every opportunity that you have been praying for!

Luke 11:11-13 The Manifesting Power of Prayer:

We need to come to the realization that God wants to bless us and give answers to our prayers more than we want the answers.  The average father wants to give his children the best he can. So how much more does your heavenly Father want to give us the best He has to offer.

We also need to know that as we continue to stand and in all things stand that we will not go down in defeat but every time we will see the goodness of the Lord in the land of the living.
