A generation ignoring and leaving out one of their core Celestial prayer strength to adopt a foreign one which has disrupted their lifestyle.


I have seen Celestians claiming 3 elders prayer is not enough, the silent prayer is not enough, so we need the revival prayers not introduced from the onset in our mode of worship. They want to be prayerful yet they are rejecting their church's prayer model. They are swayed with the belief that 1hour straight prayers are more effective than intermittent short prayers.

Yet, these set of people are the ones that refused to follow the celestial principle of pray without ceasing, a prayer lifestyle introduced into our church as Christians.






What is the prayer lifestyle? The lifestyle where you pray for every 3 hours, you start your day with the 5-5.30am prayer, by 9 am, you pray. 12noon, you pray. 3 pm, your pray. 6 pm, you pray and 9 pm, you pray too. 7 times a day, every day. If you have the strength, you pray by 12midnight too.

There was a time our fathers will stop what they are doing when the hourly prayer time clicks, just like our Muslim brothers. They excuse themselves just to not miss that prayer time. Some will pause and silently observe the time. The Muslims adopted their 5 times a day prayer lifestyle, the Jews did adopt theirs too but we celestians rejected ours and claim we pray little, reason things are going bad. What a generation chasing shadows! A generation ignoring and leaving out one of their core Celestial prayer strength to adopt a foreign one which has disrupted their lifestyle.

Yes, am still talking of the generation that chooses to go against the church tenets of not drinking alcohol, of not wearing a red and black dress, of not eating certain things, of not being occultists or ensure they sanctify themselves after the specified days, but still complain that their church is not praying enough reason things are going bad for them. Please, how will you vex the spirit of the church and yet expect it to answer each time you need it?






It isn't meant for debate but if you feel you want to debate, ask yourself this question, how come we all say the spirit in the church now isn't as of old? Why is it that our parents that followed this celestial prayer lifestyle were successful during their time and still relevant to date? Why did our parents felt the glory of this church more than today's generation?

There was a generation without 'so di adura' yet they were more impactful than the generation of the 'so di aduras'. There was a generation of short intermittent prayers who were more successful that the generation of 1,2,3 hours straight prayers.

What happen? We lost the Celestial prayer lifestyle! Jer. 6:16 'Seek for the old path and walk therein'.
