    Chapter 13: power principle seven: The power of prayer.
    Text:Jas.5.16 – Confess your sins to each other and pray for each other so that you may be healed. The earnest prayer of a righteous person has great power and wonderful results.
    Prayer and fasting are powerful principles which release the power of God in the lives of believers.
    Prayer is communion with God.
    Matt.7.7 – “Keep on asking, and you will be given what you ask for. Keep on looking, and you will find. Keep on knocking, and the door will be opened.
    Matt.7.8 – For everyone who asks, receives. Everyone who seeks, finds. And the door is opened to everyone who knocks.
    There are three levels in prayer: asking, seeking and knocking.
    Asking is the first level in prayer. It is simply presenting a request to God and receiving an immediate answer…
    We have the powerful spiritual weapon of prayer, and yet many do not use it. They do not ask, and because of this, they do not receive.
    Seeking is a deeper level in prayer. This is the level of prayer where answers are not as imediate as at the asking level.
    Knocking is a deeper level yet. It is prayer that is persistent when answers are longer in coming.
