Praying in the Closet and in the Spirit

Both disciplined and spontaneous prayer should flow from our confidence that God is already one hundred percent on our side.

If I could listen to any message this year this is it. I learned more in this one message than the last wasted 14 years listening to false teachers. Thank you pastor John for teaching us and that God gave you the gift to share. So very blessed. ❤️

[@AnHebrewChild]

You know you can listen to the audio bible (gospel of Matthew, Mark etc)... for FREE here on KZbin. There's no reason to listen to false "shepherds" when we the one True shepherd in Jesus. :D "And there shall be one fold, and one shepherd." - JESUS (John 10)

Thank you Pastor John Piper , for understanding praying in the spirit , I was watching the concept of praying in the spirit as the exhibition of loudly ,saying repeatedly the "praying in tongues " that is 50:26 said to be praying in tongues watched by other people ,that looked holy ,now I know the difference .Amen .

Pastor John’s clear, down to earth explanations help me so much. God has allowed us to have this great Bible teacher, this long. Let’s learn all we can from him while we have him. He’s getting older & he’s had cancer and censorship is growing & now Covid, addictions, suicide is stealing lives. Help me learn & share what I know in these last days of my life, Lord. I’ve wasted so many precious years

"Spontaneity may be legalistic" Man you called me out, that was good

[@skystorm569]

I needed this because I was getting into legalism through discipline. And I longed for the security I had when I first came to know God. And I heard this and it was like God was slapping me to wake me up and say, "God is already on your side! Keep it simple, stupid!"

For us*

[@ms.chrisie8040]

This is so very rarely spoken of & im so glad you did. We here in the West have actually taken very,very many blessings for granted I've even seen people with attitudes like God owes them something when we should be on our knees just to thank Him for the air we breathe. Our little petty problems are minut compared to other nations , one example is N. K. Just imagine living under a dictator like that. Yes Sir we are absolutely One Hundred percent blessed compared to our poorest we are even richest. Im so ashamed theres people who would give their life to be able to have Jesus ,Lord of their hearts & lives the way that we can & still people would rather argue about the color of their churches carpets & so on. God bless you for speaking truth.

[@cruisecontrol3444]

Praying in the spirit is letting the Holy spirit intercede for us, through us by the perfect will of God. For we don’t know what to pray for, but the Spirit of God knows the mind of God. Why was the most important aspect of being filled and praying in the spirit (in other languages or tongues) not mentioned? He said a lot of great things but missed the whole meaning of it. The Bible says we don’t know what to pray for, but the spirit of God does. I experienced this first handed. And it’s wonderful and life changing. You can pray in the spirit for hours and hours and feel as if you are entering into the holy of Holies, where it is just you and God, and then he starts fastening the mind to understand what the spirit of God was praying about.

Love this. I see praying “in the spirit” to predominantly means tongues, but IF that gift hasn’t come to you then this way of thinking applies and you might be lucky enough to have a greater gift

[@MrKingcarella23]

Nowhere in those verses or in the chapter does it mention that praying in the spirit means tongues. There is a chapter that speaks about that as you know in the book of Corinthians. I’m correcting you out of love brother.

Very helpful message; the meat of the Word. I am almost housebound because of illness and I want to learn to not waste my time and to pray without ceasing. Thank you for sharing the message. I am sharing the whole message with some Christians I know on facebook because I can't see them in person.

[@ryansantoni]

I would recommend the book The Way of the Pilgrim it talks about praying without ceasing from an Eastern Orthodox perspective. Also it may be a liberating read to you if your almost housebound as it speaks of going through Russia and Siberia , being unable to travel because of bad eyesight I know I found it to be so . Just a thought God bless.

[@BloodCovenant]

"Pray in the Spiirit" I am suprised that Pastor didn't make the connection in Ephesians 6:17, one verse before 6:18, to define what it is to pray in the Spirit "he sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God" and then immediately in v18 says "praying always with all prayer and supplication in the Spirit". The conclusion being made in the verses is, to take up the word of God in our prayers, is to take up the Spirit's sword and thus we pray in the Spirit by praying the word of God. 👍

[@ApolloThyrteen]

Woah. Great explanation!

[@jjjj-ss8dq]

[@alannoon3948]

What about fasting Jesus said when you fast not if you fast

[@chrisvdmerwe1469]

To John Piper: Correct me if I'm wrong. I loved the way you started in prayer "through Jesus" but I'm questioning the closure prayer "in the Name of Jesus". Im not critical, but since you are a proofed years long believer in Christ did you never picked it up from the Word that by beleveing in the Gospel we are given authority to pray through Jesus as we are now part of the body of Christ? Not to consider my question lightly please. As the Father subjected all power to His faithful and righteous son.

[@rameshvalvi9636]

I am thankful such a great message heard please help and pray for me to do His work faithfully and live for Him.God bless you and family great ok.

[@rajubirudugadda8285]

Yes he has given us authority. But in everything we ask and plead is through Jesus Christ.

[@robertb2479]

Jesus said that no one can come into the father except by him, therefore he intercedes for us to the father. This is clearly stated in the bible.

I am a member of southern baptist church and i just completed your preaching about the baptism of the Holy Spirit. I then watch a bro in the Lord Justine Peters and the title of his video is Heavenly Tourism. You are among those whom he accused who have lied about your story that you went to heaven for 90 min. It was written to a book that sold millions of copies. You are the only one among he accused who belong to a church with a healthy doctrine. What i can say about this is that if you are a true man of God even satan will find nothing to accuse you, but if our very brother in the Lord has against you and you do not correct things to God and to the rest that believed to your lies. I firmly believed that should quit preaching

[@ldebrobander]

Don Piper...you can find him on Google. I had spoken with Justin Peters about 2 years ago. I shared an experience I had with the Lord that can be confirmed in the book of Job. Never heard from him again. Pray for Justin, that the Lord will guide him into all truth and grant him spiritual discernment. There are stories that are Not possible to confirm in God's word, and we each need to pray for wisdom and discernment. But when we paint every experience with the same brush, let not that person expect to experience the Lord in a deeper, scriptural way. The Lord does not reward unbelief! Blessings 💝
