Watchful and On Guard
Be Watchful and On Guard Against the enemy! especially when we are going to Pray.
Other-Worldly
From the Standpoint of God’s Choice of us, we are Taken Out of the world.
But from the Standpoint of our New Life, we are NOT of the world at all, but From Above.
As the People of God, Heaven is not only our Destiny, but our Place of Origin.
Other-Worldly! So Other-Worldly is it that no matter how this world may progress, that element in us can NEVER become like it.
The Life we have as God’s Gift has NO correspondence with the world, but is in Perfect Correspondence With Heaven.
Resurrection
For if we have become Planted Together! to the likeness of His Death! so we also will be of the Resurrection!
Crucified With Christ
I have been crucified with Christ! and I no longer live, but Christ lives in me!
Already
The Victorious Life which I seek is Actually Something I Have Already Possessed.
Already a Branch Joined To The Tree!

Then the disciples having come to Jesus by Himself, said, “Why were we not able to cast him out?” And Jesus said to them, “Through your want of faith; for truly I say to you, if you may have faith as a grain of mustard, you will say to this mountain, Move from here to there, and it will move, and nothing will be impossible to you, [[and this kind does not go forth except in prayer and fasting.”]]
=====
JOHN 15.5
I AM the vine, you the branches; he who is remaining in Me, and I in him, this one bears much fruit, because apart from Me you are not able to do anything;
Strong In Us
It is in Prayer, in Living Contact with God, that Faith – the Power to Trust God and Accept Everything He Says – will Become Strong in us.
Cancel Our Self-Sufficiency
We Must Allow God to Cancel our self-sufficiency.
When we Confess Before Him that we can do nothing in our own strength, Then Christ Will Be Able To Manifest His Power Upon us.
Pray
Romans 8.26-27 And in like manner also, the Spirit helps our weaknesses; for what we may pray for, as it is necessary, we have not known, but [this] One—the Spirit—makes intercession for us with unutterable groanings, and He who is searching the hearts has known what [is] the mind of the Spirit, because according to God He intercedes for holy ones.
