Twenty-Seven (27) Currencies (Types and Levels) of Prayers – 1
The power and relevance of prayer
Technology is doing its
best to make the impossible possible. People transact business globally in
hours, minutes, and seconds because of technology. However, technology has
limitations. In the old days, people traveled by foot, horse, camel, and boat.
Sometimes, they spend
days, months, and years to reach their destination. However, technology has
made things easier and faster. Today, people can travel far distances quickly
because of technology.
Technology has helped us
in many ways. However, it has limitations. As humans, we are limited in several
ways. We need the help of the supernatural forces. We need a superior power to
do things technology, and God’s creation (humans, animals, rivers, and plants)
cannot do.
This is where prayer
comes in. Prayer does things technology, and God’s creation (humans, animals,
rivers, and plants) cannot do. Prayer is an act of communication. Prayer takes
place when creation looks up to God for help.
Through prayer, the
spiritual forces solve our limitations. Prayer does a lot in our lives. We
cannot deny this truth. Human beings are naturally evil. By nature, humans are
selfish, greedy, and corrupt.
It takes a vessel full of
the Holy Spirit to be selfless, loving, and righteous. We cannot depend solely
on human beings for everything. We need the help of the Holy Creator (Christ
Jesus) because He is Omnipotent, Omnipresent, and Omniscient.
The world lies in
darkness. Wickedness rules several parts of the world. Failure to call on God
through prayers will empower the devil and wicked people to dominate the world
with corruption.
Through prayers, we can avert
the works of the wicked. Prayer helps us communicate with the Supreme Creator
(Christ Jesus). Through prayers, we release the spiritual forces to take
control over our lives.
Spiritual forces have a
great advantage over humankind. Spiritual forces travel faster than the speed
of light, thought, sound, gun bullets, and any artificial moving material.
Spiritual forces have incredible powers.
Through prayer, God can
send spiritual forces to assist us. Prayer opens the Heavenly portal. Heaven has
treasures the earth needs. We receive Heavenly materials through prayer to
accomplish our task (meditate on Hebrews 11:3, Genesis 1).
We receive mercies,
provision, power, and wisdom through prayer to do the impossible. It is through
prayer that we touch the heart of God. Prayer delivers us from the works of the
ungodly. Through prayer, we draw closer to God (the Holy Spirit).
Prayer reveals our
humility, unveils our limitations, and proves our faith in God. We don't deal
with enemies with one strategy because some enemies are advanced in warfare. A
time comes when we must change strategies.
Even in the animal
kingdom, we deal with them differently. You cannot deal with the lion like you
do with cats, dogs, snakes, tigers, and birds. You need the wisdom to deal with
each animal. In the race of humankind, we have different personalities,
temperaments, and philosophies.
You don’t deal with an
introvert the same way you deal with an extrovert. You have to change the
methodology and philosophy. In the same way, prayers are in levels. There are
times when we must change the style of our prayers.
Depending on the
situation, you must deploy the right strategy. How you approach your mother
might differ from how you come to your father. Although each is your parent,
you must know how to deal with and live with them.
Facing an enemy loaded
with missiles, tanks, warships, and jet planes with bows and arrows displays
your immaturity. It will be wise to conclude your defeat because there is no
way you can win a battle with an enemy who has advanced weapons such as
missiles, tanks, warships, and jet planes with bows and arrows.
You have already lost the
battle before the battle begins because there is no way you can beat the enemy
with a bow and arrows (strategy). It will take the hand of God to win such
battles. This is one reason you must know the currencies (types and levels) of
prayers.
I encourage you to download
and read my book, 1001 Divine Principles of Spiritual Warfare, for more profound revelation. You
must know the systems and fundamentals of prayers. Prayer has formalities,
principles, methodologies, laws, strategies, and tactics. It is not enough to
pray.
Freely download and read
my book on my blog, The Seven Principles to an Answered Prayers, for more profound revelations.
You must know when, how, and why you must pray. In my walk with the Holy
Spirit, I have realized that prayer does many things.
There are things regarding
prayers that I cannot explain in this article. If you want God to fight
invisible enemies, pray. Pray strategically and tactically. Do not joke with
prayers if you want to become a spiritual giant.
Prayers carry power!
Prayer delivers. Prayer activates the hands of God. I should have been dead by
now if not for God's mercies, grace, and prayers. I don’t want the enemy to
stop you. Prayer is an asset.
Prayerlessness is a
liability. Recover from this debt as soon as possible because the enemy is
unmerciful! Many people are in prison and psychiatric hospitals because they
failed to pray the right way.
Some, too, are in grave
danger because they failed to pray strategically. Some people have fallen into
the traps of the enemy because of prayerlessness. I love prayers. I do not joke
with prayers because it’s one of my deliverance, power, and provision seed.
By God’s grace, I have uncountable
testimonies regarding prayers. Pray if you want God to defend, fight, and
provide for you. Build a consistent prayer life if you want your spiritual
senses to be active.
Pray strategically and
tactically. You will experience deliverance. Freely download and read my book
on my blog, The Seven Secret Keys, to answer prayers for more profound revelations. You
can also download and read my book on my blog, Spiritual Keys for Life,
for more profound prayer truths.
Most of the books and
articles you see online with the name (Duodu Henry Appiah-korang) came
through prayers. As I prayed, the Holy Spirit gave me the ideas. This is one
reason I want to share with you twenty-seven types and levels of prayers.
Knowing these truths will
enhance your spiritual life. The truths in this article will help you know the
best prayer to deploy. Like a building, the foundation determines its
longevity, length, height, and width.
Prayer is the foundation
of our spiritual life. The devil and his minions will not dominate you if you
have a strong foundation. As long as you keep the fire of prayer burning, you
will triumph in your spiritual life.
Strategic and tactical prayers
will enhance your psychological, social, spiritual, physical, and emotional energy.
Like a plant, the more you water it, the more it receives strength. That is how
prayer works in our lives.
Prayer revives our
spiritual lives. It makes us sensitive to spiritual forces. Through prayers, we
break the stronghold of the wicked. Prayers can dismantle the works of the
wicked. Through prayer, we receive the attention of the holy spiritual forces.
If you study the Holy
Scriptures, you will understand that vessels that made significant
contributions to the Church, organizations, communities, and institutions were
prayerful. Abraham, Noah, David, Daniel, Moses, Samson, Solomon, Jacob
(Israel), Isaiah, Jeremiah, Ezekiel, and several patriarchs and prophets were
prayerful.
Our Savior and Lord
Christ Jesus was prayerful. Christ Jesus did not joke with prayers because he
knew the power within. The disciples of Christ Jesus had time and seasons of
prayer because they knew its power.
Let prayer be your
foundation if you want to make a mark in the Kingdom of God, business, and
leadership. Specifically, if you want to lift the banner of God’s kingdom
higher, let prayer be your foundation.
I believe I would not
have reached this ministry level if I was not prayerful. It took prayer to
climb this mountain. As I’m writing this article, I am going through spiritual
battles. I don’t joke with my prayer life because some spiritual forces work
for me while some work against me.
The Holy Spirit reveals
the works of the spiritual forces to me through dreams and visions. Wickedness
reigns in every continent. The devil and his minions roam in Africa, America,
Europe, Asia, Australia, and Antarctica.
However, if you find
yourself in Africa, increase the intensity of your prayer because our condition
is full of extreme wickedness and witchcraft. If you joke with the black
witches, they will not spare you.
A little mistake, and you
are gone! Let prayer be your foundation because it can break the strongholds of
the wicked. Prayer will shake the Heavens. Through prayers, God and his angels
will come to your aid.
Let me share the
twenty-seven currencies (types and levels) of prayers to help you grow
spiritually, emotionally, financially, socially, and psychologically. Kindly share the link to this article with your loved ones so they can receive the
knowledge that brings deliverance.
Twenty-Seven Uncommon Currencies of prayers
1. Aiteo prayers
Ask, and it shall be given you; seek, and ye shall find; knock, and it
shall be opened unto you:
For every one that asketh receiveth; and he that seeketh findeth; and
to him that knocketh it shall be opened.
Matthew 7:7-8 KJV
This is one of the basic
prayers. In this prayer, we ask God for our basic needs and wants. Maybe you
need provisions, fruit of the womb, funds, a job, a marriage partner, or anything.
Through this prayer, you ask, beg, call for, crave, and desire that God do
something for you. This is one of the most common prayers in Churches, schools,
communities, and organizations.
2. Zeteo prayers
Ask, and it shall be given you; seek, and ye shall find; knock, and it
shall be opened unto you:
For every one that asketh receiveth; and he that seeketh findeth; and
to him that knocketh it shall be opened.
Matthew 7:7-8 KJV
With this prayer, we seek
the face of God. Often, people add fasting to this prayer. In this prayer, we investigate
the problem's root cause. We pray a prayer of inquiry so we can know the hidden
things.
Moreover the word of the LORD came unto Jeremiah the second time, while
he was yet shut up in the court of the prison, saying,
Thus saith the LORD the maker thereof, the LORD that formed it, to
establish it; the LORD is his name;
Call unto me, and I will answer thee, and shew thee great and mighty
things, which thou knowest not.
Jeremiah 33:1-3 KJV
With this prayer, we call
on God to reveal the mysteries and secrets of life. Through this prayer, God
reveals his plans for our lives and those connected to us. This prayer helps us
to know the secret enemy behind our problems.
With this prayer, the Holy
Spirit opens the eyes of our understanding. The Holy Spirit reveals the place of purpose,
destiny helpers, and things we must do to accomplish our assignment. Are you
seeking the Lord?
It is time to deploy this
prayer to unveil the secrets of your life, family, purpose, and works of the
enemy. You will know what to do when the Holy Spirit reveals your secrets.
Engage zeteo
prayers!
3. Krouo prayers
Ask, and it shall be given you; seek, and ye shall find; knock, and it
shall be opened unto you:
For every one that asketh receiveth; and he that seeketh findeth; and
to him that knocketh it shall be opened.
Matthew 7:7-8 KJV
With this prayer, we
desire access to Heaven’s gate. This prayer allows our spirit and soul to enter
the throne room of God. The spiritual realms have gates. If you get access to
the gates of Heaven, your blessings will increase.
With krouo prayer, our
spirit enters the courts of Heaven. You can access tremendous blessings if the
angels open your desired gate. This prayer allows us to access the divine gates
of specific anointing, mantle, gifts, and territories.
The prayer of krouo is
one of the most potent prayers you can deploy. With this prayer, Heaven's
windows, gates, and doors open to your inner man. When you deploy this prayer,
the Holy Spirit will grant you access to the gate of hell to see their
activities. If you want to experience supernatural visions and encounters, seek
the Lord in prayers. If you're going to experience the gates and doors of the
spiritual realm, try krouo prayers.
4. Duo sumphoneo prayers
…I say unto you, That if two of you shall agree on
earth as touching any thing that they shall ask, it shall be done for them of
my Father which is in Heaven.
For where two or three are gathered together in my name, there am I in
the midst of them.
Matthew 18:19-20 KJV
This prayer works best in
harmonious, holy, and glorious marriages and relationships. When two born-again
Christian believers agree on one thing and pray about it, the Heavenly Father
answers it.
It is time to find a
prayer partner and try this prayer. However, make sure you agree on the topic
of prayer. If you agree and your partner disagrees with the prayers, it will
not work. In other words, if you have faith and your prayer partner does not
have in the prayers, the prayer will not work.
This is one reason you
need a faithful Christian believer full of faith, love, joy, and peace. Suppose
you are a male, partner with a male. If you are a female, associate with a
female prayer partner.
Following this
instruction will deliver you from temptation. However, you can form a prayer
team with your partner and children if you are married. Try this prayer. You
will see the wonders of God.
5. Prayer of yakach
Come now, and let us reason together, saith the LORD: though your sins
be as scarlet, they shall be as white as snow; though they be red like crimson,
they shall be as wool.
Isaiah 1:18 KJV
One of my best prayers is
the yakach. With this prayer, we convince God of our plans. We argue with God
to settle a dispute. It is a prayer of pleading. We reason with God. Like
Church elders, the leadership board, and managers making decisions.
They join heads. That is
how we deploy this prayer. We join heads with God. With this prayer, we appear
before God boldly. I have used this prayer several times. Sometimes, I put
three chairs before me in my closet—one chair for the Heavenly Father, one for
Christ Jesus, and one for the Holy Spirit.
While engaging in this
prayer, I believe the Trinity (the Heavenly Father, Son, and Holy Spirit) sits
on the chairs. I reason with the Heavenly Father, Son, and the Holy Spirit. I
convinced the Trinity of my plans.
Remember, it takes faith
to engage in this prayer. Try this prayer if you have reasonable plans. God
(the Holy Spirit) wants to reason with us. As stated in Isaiah chapter one,
verse eighteen, God says we should come and reason with him (see Isaiah 1:18).
God created us in His
image and likeness—our intelligence and power match God’s wisdom and power. We
have the mind of Christ Jesus. We can convince God. We can plead our case
before God, like a judge and lawyer.
The lawyer pleads for his
client. We (lawyers) can plead our case before God (Judge). We can let God know
why we need certain things. We can share ideas with God. We can share our pain,
fears, and problems with God. We can convince God of what we want to do.
Produce your cause, saith the LORD; bring forth your strong reasons,
saith the King of Jacob.
Isaiah 41:21 KJV
It is time to apply the
prayer of yakach.
You
have the mind of Christ Jesus. Present your case, problem, plans, and vision to
the Holy Spirit. Convince the Holy Spirit why you need the miracle. Let the
Holy Spirit know why your family and friends need a miracle. You will receive
an answer when you present a solid and valid point.
In those days was Hezekiah sick unto death. And the prophet Isaiah the
son of Amoz came to him, and said unto him, Thus saith the LORD, Set thine
house in order; for thou shalt die, and not live.
Then he turned his face to the wall, and prayed unto the LORD, saying,
I beseech thee, O LORD, remember now how I have walked before thee in
truth and with a perfect heart, and have done that which is good in thy
sight. And Hezekiah wept sore.
And it came to pass, afore Isaiah was gone out into the middle court,
that the word of the LORD came to him, saying,
Turn again, and tell Hezekiah the captain of my people, Thus saith the
LORD, the God of David thy father, I have heard thy prayer, I have seen thy
tears: behold, I will heal thee: on the third day thou shalt go up unto the
house of the LORD.
And I will add unto thy days fifteen years; and I will deliver thee and
this city out of the hand of the king of Assyria; and I will defend this city
for mine own sake, and for my servant David's sake.
2 Kings 20:1-6 KJV
From the above Holy
Scriptures, King Hezekiah reasoned with God after he received the death
prophecy of Prophet Isaiah. Hezekiah presented his case before God. Hezekiah
pleaded. He convinced God why he should live.
God added fifteen years
to his age. Instead of death, Hezekiah received life and protection. Although
it was through the covenant of David and God’s mercies that God delivered
Hezekiah, Hezekiah's pleading constituted the deliverance.
What if Hezekiah had not applied
the prayer of yakach?
The
Holy Spirit wants you to convince him. You can plead, persuade, and reason with
the Holy Spirit. It’s one of the best prayers you can do in your closet.
6. Ektenes prayers
Now about that time Herod the king stretched forth his hands to
vex certain of the Church.
And he killed James the brother of John with the sword.
And because he saw it pleased the Jews, he proceeded further to take
Peter also. (Then were the days of unleavened bread.)
And when he had apprehended him, he put him in prison, and
delivered him to four quaternions of soldiers to keep him; intending
after Easter to bring him forth to the people.
Peter therefore was kept in prison: but prayer was made without ceasing
of the Church unto God for him.
And when Herod would have brought him forth, the same night Peter was
sleeping between two soldiers, bound with two chains: and the keepers before
the door kept the prison.
And, behold, the angel of the Lord came upon him, and a light
shined in the prison: and he smote Peter on the side, and raised him up,
saying, Arise up quickly. And his chains fell off from his hands.
Acts 12:1-7 KJV
King Herod desired to
please the false religious and unreligious people. He believed that killing the
disciples of Christ Jesus would make the people love him. Herod killed James,
the brother of John.
James was one of the
Spirit-filled believers. However, the disciples of Christ Jesus failed to
intercede for him, leading to his premature death. When James died, Herod
decided to kill Apostle Peter.
This time, the disciples
did not keep silent. They applied ektenes prayers. Ektenes prayers has
no end. This type of prayer will not stop until something happens. Maybe you
desire a miracle. This is the prayer you must deploy.
Apostle Peter might have
died if the disciples of Christ Jesus did not deploy this prayer. Through this
prayer, an angel of God released Peter from the hands of the enemy. Maybe you
or your loved ones are in trouble. You need this prayer. Pray until something
happens. This prayer demands instant evidence. You pray until deliverance
happens. Are you ready to pray until something happens?
7. Riyb prayer
And Abraham drew near, and said, Wilt thou also destroy the righteous
with the wicked?
Peradventure there be fifty righteous within the city: wilt thou also
destroy and not spare the place for the fifty righteous that are
therein?
That be far from thee to do after this manner, to slay the righteous
with the wicked: and that the righteous should be as the wicked, that be far
from thee: Shall not the Judge of all the earth do right?
And the LORD said, If I find in Sodom fifty righteous within the city,
then I will spare all the place for their sakes.
And Abraham answered and said, Behold now, I have taken upon me to
speak unto the Lord, which am but dust and ashes:
Peradventure there shall lack five of the fifty righteous: wilt thou
destroy all the city for lack of five? And he said, If I find there
forty and five, I will not destroy it.
And he spake unto him yet again, and said, Peradventure there shall be
forty found there. And he said, I will not do it for forty's sake.
And he said unto him, Oh let not the Lord be angry, and I will
speak: Peradventure there shall thirty be found there. And he said, I will not
do it, if I find thirty there.
And he said, Behold now, I have taken upon me to speak unto the Lord:
Peradventure there shall be twenty found there. And he said, I will not destroy
it for twenty's sake.
And he said, Oh let not the Lord be angry, and I will speak yet but
this once: Peradventure ten shall be found there. And he said, I will not
destroy it for ten's sake.
And the LORD went his way, as soon as he had left communing with
Abraham: and Abraham returned unto his place.
Genesis 18:23-33 KJV
As stated, Abraham was a
prayerful man. He knew riyb prayer. Abraham deployed this prayer for Sodom and
Gomorrah, and God delivered Lot and his family. With riyb’s prayer, we stand
between God and nations.
We often call it
intercessory prayers. With this prayer, we plead for others. This prayer
demands that the intercessor live a righteous life. Secondly, the intercessor
must be full of faith. If the intercessor is full of faith and lives in the
righteousness of Christ Jesus, the prayer often works.
Most often, this prayer
takes a long time. Sometimes, you can pray all day or night because you stand
in the gap between countries, people, and organizations. Before entering this
prayer arena, you must have a deep relationship and fellowship with the Holy
Spirit.
You must know the voice
of the Holy Spirit because you cannot leave the arena of prayer until the Holy
Spirit speaks about the problem. Freely download and read my series of books for
more profound revelation about the Holy Spirit.
The books are free on my
blog. If you are praying for the deliverance of a country or vessel, you must
receive confirmation from the Holy Spirit that he has heard and answered the
prayers. You need the waiting (patience) spirit to travail in this prayer.
This prayer is not for
spiritual babies. It's for mature Christian believers because you will need
confirmation from the Holy Spirit that he has answered your prayers. If you
have the grace of riyb
prayers,
you will not struggle. One thing I have realized about this prayer is that you
will often find it enjoyable if you have the grace. However, the prayer will
become burdensome if you don’t have the grace.
Son of man, say unto her, Thou art the land that is not
cleansed, nor rained upon in the day of indignation.
There is a conspiracy of her prophets in the midst thereof,
like a roaring lion ravening the prey; they have devoured souls; they have
taken the treasure and precious things; they have made her many widows in the
midst thereof.
Her priests have violated my law, and have profaned mine holy things:
they have put no difference between the holy and profane, neither have they
shewed difference between the unclean and the clean, and have hid their
eyes from my sabbaths, and I am profaned among them.
Her princes in the midst thereof are like wolves ravening the
prey, to shed blood, and to destroy souls, to get dishonest gain.
And her prophets have daubed them with untempered morter, seeing
vanity, and divining lies unto them, saying, Thus saith the Lord GOD, when the
LORD hath not spoken.
The people of the land have used oppression, and exercised robbery, and
have vexed the poor and needy: yea, they have oppressed the stranger
wrongfully.
And I sought for a man among them, that should make up the hedge, and
stand in the gap before me for the land, that I should not destroy it: but I
found none.
Therefore have I poured out mine indignation upon them; I have consumed
them with the fire of my wrath: their own way have I recompensed upon their
heads, saith the Lord GOD.
Ezekiel 22:24-31 KJV
God is looking for
vessels that can stand in the gap. With this prayer, you become a deliverer of
nations, organizations, and prominent vessels. God needs a vessel to stand in
the gap between countries so he will not pour his wrath on the citizens.
Are you ready to deploy riyb prayer? With this prayer, you touch
the heart of God to release mercies, power, and vengeance. You cannot pray this
prayer if you are selfish. It takes selfless, faithful, and anointed vessels to
deploy this prayer.
This is the introduction.
In the next article, I will dissect more currencies (types and levels) of
prayers. Kindly share the link to this article so others can receive the
wisdom that brings deliverance.
