  2. Luke 11:34-36 • The eye is the lamp of your body; when your eye is clear, your whole body also is full of light; but when it is bad, your body also is full of darkness. 35 Then watch out that the light in you is not darkness. 36 If therefore your whole body is full of light, with no dark part in it, it will be wholly illumined, as when the lamp illumines you with its rays.”

  3. Joshua 6:1-5 Now Jericho was tightly shut because of the sons of Israel; no one went out and no one came in. 2 The Lord said to Joshua, “See, I have given Jericho into your hand, with its king and the valiant warriors. 3 You shall march around the city, all the men of war circling the city once. You shall do so for six days. 4 Also seven priests shall carry seven trumpets of rams’ horns before the ark; then on the seventh day you shall march around the city seven times, and the priests shall blow the trumpets. 5 It shall be that when they make a long blast with the ram’s horn, and when you hear the sound of the trumpet, all the people shall shout with a great shout; and the wall of the city will fall down flat, and the people will go up every man straight ahead.”

  4. Hebrews 11:7 • By faith Noah, being warned by God about things not yet seen, in reverence prepared an ark for the salvation of his household, by which he condemned the world, and became an heir of the righteousness which is according to faith. • You shall take with you of every clean animal by sevens • For after sevenmore days, I will send rain on the earth • In the seventhmonth… • So he waited yet another sevendays…

  5. I Kings 18:41-46 Now Elijah said to Ahab, “Go up, eat and drink; for there is the sound of the roar of a heavy shower.” 42 So Ahab went up to eat and drink. But Elijah went up to the top of Carmel; and he crouched down on the earth and put his face between his knees. 43 He said to his servant, “Go up now, look toward the sea.” So he went up and looked and said, “There is nothing.” And he said, “Go back” seven times. 44 It came about at the seventh time, that he said, “Behold, a cloud as small as a man’s hand is coming up from the sea.” And he said, “Go up, say to Ahab, ‘Prepare your chariot and go down, so that the heavy shower does not stop you.’” 45 In a little while the sky grew black with clouds and wind, and there was a heavy shower. And Ahab rode and went to Jezreel. 46 Then the hand of the Lord was on Elijah, and (he girded up his loins and outran Ahab to Jezreel.

  6. We are People of Faith! • God reveals the blueprint of Heaven on Earth to His people in different ways • Shows them… (like Joshua) • Speaks to them… (like Noah) • The Word comes… (like Elijah) • By faith, we speak and act upon Heaven’s Blueprint – before we are able to see it on Earth • The movies in my mind… • What does this mean for our prayer life?

  7. The number 7 in the Bible • Seven days in the story of creation • Seven seals, seven angels, seven churches in Revelation • “Seven times…” Hebrew root word for “seven”… • 1) Seven 2) Full/Complete 3) Oath Seven Times ShevaPawmim

  8. So, what might this mean for our prayer life? • Pursue a “WORD” from Him • Use the Faith we have to Speak the Word in our Prayers… • Not meaningless repetitions, but entering into Oath with the Holy Spirit for the fullness or completion of Heaven’s Blueprint on Earth • Luke 11 • Lord’s Prayer

  9. Luke 11: 5 Then He said to them, Suppose one of you has a friend, and goes to him at midnight and says to him, ‘Friend, lend me three loaves; 6 for a friend of mine has come to me from a journey, and I have nothing to set before him’; 7 and from inside he answers and says, ‘Do not bother me; the door has already been shut and my children and I are in bed; I cannot get up and give you anything.’ 8 I tell you, even though he will not get up and give him anything because he is his friend, yet because of his persistence he will get up and give him as much as he needs. • 9 “So I say to you, ask, and it will be given to you; seek, and you will find; knock, and it will be opened to you. 10 For everyone who asks, receives; and he who seeks, finds; and to him who knocks, it will be opened. 11 Now suppose one of you fathers is asked by his son for a fish; he will not give him a snake instead of a fish, will he? 12 Or if he is asked for an egg, he will not give him a scorpion, will he? 13 If you then, being evil, know how to give good gifts to your children, how much more will yourheavenly Father give the Holy Spirit to those who ask Him?”
