The veil has been torn. You have direct access to to the Creator in your prayer life- why do you need an exchange to redirect it?
The veil is indeed taken away for us. This is where we have to truly understand. The veil is broken for all. Plural. We can go as an individual but also as a group the veil is torn. We have access to the heavenly court. Everybody in it too. ( Zechariah 3) We are not "redirecting it."This is where people misunderstand. Group prayer is even more powerful and anointed. Look at Acts12. The power of group prayers is awesome.
12 :
5 While Peter was kept in prison, the CHURCH( a group) PRAYED FERVENTLY to GOD for HIM( an individual)
Peter Delivered from Prison
6 The very night before Herod was going to bring him out, Peter, bound with two chains, was sleeping between two soldiers, while guards in front of the door were keeping watch over the prison. 7 Suddenly an angel of the Lord appeared and a light shone in the cell. He tapped Peter on the side and woke him, saying, Get up quickly. And the chains fell off his wrists. 8 The angel said to him, Fasten your belt and put on your sandals. He did so. Then he said to him, Wrap your cloak around you and follow me. 9 Peter[a] went out and followed him; he did not realize that what was happening with the angels help was real; he thought he was seeing a vision. 10 After they had passed the first and the second guard, they came before the iron gate leading into the city. It opened for them of its own accord, and they went outside and walked along a lane, when suddenly the angel left him. 11 Then Peter came to himself and said, Now I am sure that the Lord has sent his angel and rescued me from the hands of Herod and from all that the Jewish people were expecting. 12 As soon as he realized this, he went to the house of Mary, the mother of John whose other name was Mark, where MANY( group) had GATHERED and were PRAYING. 13 When he knocked at the outer gate, a maid named Rhoda came to answer. 14 On recognizing Peters voice, she was so overjoyed that, instead of opening the gate, she ran in and announced that Peter was standing at the gate. 15 They said to her, You are out of your mind! But she insisted that it was so. They said, It is his angel. 16 Meanwhile Peter continued knocking; and when they opened the gate, they saw him and were amazed. 17 He motioned to them with his hand to be silent, and described for them how the Lord had brought him out of the prison. "
LOL! It was easier for Peter to get out of Jail then to knock on the door where pray for him was still taking place. This is the power of group prayer. Amazing. How much more for those in heaven to pray for us.
Also you put we have access to the creator like in only? According to Zechariah 3 we have access to God and the Heavenly court. Notice that it talks about when sin is taken away. Which is after the crucifixion then the veil is torn in the temple in our gospels. This is what Zechariah is mentioning.
Zechariah 3:
4 He spoke and said to those who were standing before him, saying, Remove the filthy garments from him. Again he said to him, See, I have taken your iniquity away from you and [b]will clothe you with festal robes. 5 Then I said, Let them put a clean turban on his head. So they put a clean turban on his head and clothed him with garments, while the angel of the Lord was standing by.
6 And the angel of the Lord admonished Joshua, saying, 7 Thus says the Lord of hosts, If you will walk in My ways and if you will perform My service, then you will also govern My house and also have charge of My courts, and I will grant you FREE ACCESS AMONG THESE WHO ARE STANDING HERE.
The Branch
8 Now listen, Joshua the high priest, you and your friends who are sitting in front of youindeed they are men who are a symbol, for behold, I am going to bring in My servant the [d]Branch. 9 For behold, the stone that I have set before Joshua; on one stone are seven eyes. Behold, I will engrave an inscription on it, declares the Lord of hosts, and I will REMOVE THE INIQUITY of that LAND in ONE DAY. 10 In that day, declares the Lord of hosts, every one of you will invite his neighbor to sit under his vine and under his fig tree.
@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@" I will grant you FREE ACCESS AMONG THESE WHO ARE STANDING HERE."
THIS IS OUR ACCESS FOR HEAVENLY PRAYERS FROM THE HEAVENLY COURT WITH GOD.
When we begin the prayers that you claim you do not understand. We Catholics declare an allegiance to the Father through Christ. This always begins in the beginning. It is called the APOSTLES CREED. This brings us into the True Spirit- THE HOLY SPIRIT. When we say this successfully in belief we are lined up as John wrote with 1John4. We then proceed in the spirit because we can never truly declare this without the Holy Spirit.
I have personally called out a spell casting woman who declared she was a Christian. She could not for the life of her say this Apostles or Nicene Creed when it came to the specific born of the Virgin Mary. This is to declare in the flesh/ human. She blurted out "wrong manifestations." I know what I am talking about from a specific unction from Our Lord. The Holy Spirit shows us into all things.
God will not permit it unless someone has The Holy Spirit. It is just there from Christ. It is what it is in Christ.
We then in the prayer have established who we are in Christ so we then proceed with the "Our Father." God already knows and sees us asking in the Spirit of God. We then proceed with other prayers with this access to ask for prayers from the Heavenly court. It is always centered in Christ to the Holy Father in Heaven.
AMEN.
Do you practice intercessory prayer?
