The Format That All Prayers Should Have

The Format That All Prayers Should Have

We want to share some tips about saying prayers to ensure you are making them the most meaningful as possible, for you and The Most High, as well as to maximize the impact for your lives.

Prayers should demonstrate obedience, reverence, understanding of The Holy Word, as well as acknowledge YHWH’s power and authority and your desire to stand in that power, so as to imbue it into the prayer and your own authority given by Him to represent Him to others. Prayer should also provide protection for you and those you pray for, so we have included everything you will need to do that.

We have organized the parts of a prayer into sections for easy understanding, and to demonstrate how there is a logical order that covers the needs of the Most High, allows you to demonstrate the proper authority to move forward to the next step, and that then provides thorough protections that is needed to have the full covering / full armor of YHWH on you and yours. You must keep to the order provided here, as it establishes the needed acknowledgements that are necessary at each stage of the prayer to ensure it is able to be enacted upon.

Note the section “Cover, Bind, Break, Command and Cast Out” brings the greatest level of protection, and should be prayed in the order given here to ensure complete protection.

Here are the sections:

  1. Titles – speak the titles of the Most High, to strengthen certainty as to who you are referring to
  2. The Sacred Name must be included in any prayer you do
  3. Base Prayer That The Savior Said To Do – aka The Savior’s Prayer (Matt. 6:9-13, Luke 11:2-4). The Savior gave us the format for how to pray, and it forms the foundation of what a prayer should contain. For quick prayers, you can stop after this section. But to go into more detail than what is covered in the Savior’s Prayer, you can do the following sections as well, especially if you feel you need it. Keep this order – it acknowledges and honors The Most High first as it should, before you start asking for other stuff!
  4. The First and Great Commandment – Tell YHWH that you love Him (Matt. 22:38)
  5. Give Thanks to YHWH – (1 Thessalonians 5:17-19)
  6. Forgive – In order to be forgiven, we must forgive others. (Matt. 6:14)
  7. Repent – in order to be saved by the sacrifice that YHSHA Ha Moshia made for us to relieve us of our sins, we must repent of the sins we have done. To repent means to turn away from sin, not to continue to live in a sinful manner, so that you can be forgiven of that sin. We are not expected to do it alone, but ask YHSHA to change us so that we are a new righteous Creation in Him. Since we are still in this world and will continue to be tempted, we must continue to repent and ask YHSHA to help us walk in His Spirit in all ways. So it is appropriate to continue to repent in your prayers ongoing, as it shows you understand you need continual help and are seeking it.
  8. Pray Blessings, Protection, and Providence –Now that you have demonstrated obedience, reverence, and understanding of His Word, you are ready to pray for yourself, and others and ask YHWH for help: blessings, protection, to be provided for, etc.
  9. Attest To and Claim His Power and Authority – Once you have established yourself as follower and believer of YHWH, you carry an authority bestowed by Him. This will help you to learn to exercise it.
  10. Cover, Bind, Break, Command and Cast Out/Loose– for full protection! Must be prayed in this order! To be used in the manner of a command once you have accepted the authority of YHWH, because it demonstrates the authority to force evil out! It should be said aloud.
    – To cover yourself before you pray the other steps to ensure you have full protection on you to proceed with the next steps.
    – To bind the enemy so that he cannot stop you from proceeding to the next steps.
    – Command and Cast Out/Off/ Loose the enemy and any claim or stronghold from your life
