Ephesians 6: 17, 18 - NIV
Take the helmet of salvation and the sword of the Spirit, which is the Word of GOD. And pray in the Spirit on all occasions with all kinds of prayers and requests. With this in mind, be alert and always keep on praying for all the saints.
The secret to effective, fervent prayer is praying the Word of GOD. This is praying in the Spirit, for it is the sword of the Spirit. With this in mind, use your sword to intercede for every one on every occasion. Pray according to the Word of GOD and your prayer will be effective, fervent and according to the will of GOD; His will is His WORD.
When you pray the Word of GOD you are not only praying in the Spirit, you are praying the truth, for the Word is truth. There is another aspect of praying the Scripture, you are in agreement with GOD which guarantees success. GOD will never go back on His Word, He is faithful to His Word.
GOD spoke all things into existence; our words speak things into being. GOD said, "Let there be light and there was light"; our words do the same. Therefore, when we speak forth the Word of GOD, we are speaking into reality the promises of the Word of GOD for us as unique individuals. Speak aloud the Word of GOD and it will be made manifest in your life.
The Word of GOD is sharper than any two edged sword. It pierces even to the dividing of soul and spirit; joint and marrow and discerns the thoughts and intents of the heart. The Word of GOD is a powerful prayer sword which reaches GOD and touches His Heart. He will bring success when we proclaim His Truth and His Word will not return to Him void.
