The Echo of His Voice: A New Covenant Prayer – From Begging to Demanding in Our Inheritance in Christ

In one of my last posts I touched upon a profound shift in New Testament prayer—a radically different approach compared to the old covenant prayers some of us, perhaps unknowingly, still offer. There’s a crucial distinction, and honestly, if this seems revolutionary, don’t blame me!

Blame Paul! Or rather, credit the transformative revelation given to Paul concerning the finished work of Christ.

The truth is, there’s a monumental difference between the Old Covenant (which, unless you were an Israelite, you were never truly part of) and the New Testament. And this difference reveals a total and fundamentally new way to pray.

You are an heir in the Kingdom of God. Now, pray like you are!

What do we then understand as Prayer?

Dead Bones and Life

Listening to the song “Rattle” by Brandon lake, I was reminded of our powerful 2020 hindsight following the cross and the finished work of Jesus that makes the dead come alive … just by touching …

The Story of the dead bones

The account in 2 Kings 13:20-21 is a curious one, often overlooked in the grand narrative of the Bible. It tells of a dead man, hastily thrown into Elisha's tomb, who, upon contact with the prophet's bones, is miraculously revived. “So Elisha died, and they buried him. And the raiding bands from Moab invaded the land in the spring of the year. And it came to pass, as they were burying a man, that, behold, they saw a band of men; and they cast the man into the sepulchre of Elisha: and when the man was let down, and touched the bones of Elisha, he revived, and stood up on his feet.” (2 Kings 13:20-21, KJV).

At first glance, this story might seem like a strange, almost macabre miracle, a testament to the lingering power of a prophet even in death.

Blessed Fulfillment: Yah'shua, He is Yahveh!

We recently explored the profound meaning of "Baruch ha ba ha Schem Adonai – blessed be He who comes in the Name of the Lord." The original Hebrew reveals an even deeper truth: "Blessed be He who comes in the name of Yahveh." And who is "He"? None other than Yah'shua! He is Yahveh!
