Psalms 5:3 TPT “At each and every sunrise you will hear my voice as I prepare my sacrifice of prayer to you. Every morning I lay out the pieces of my life on the altar and wait for your fire to fall upon my heart.”
Morning prayers are available at the church from 6 AM to 8 AM, Tuesday to Friday, for those who are able. If you have a hard time praying at home, then go to the Temple.
For those who are experiencing many challenges, pray to have purpose. You need to know what to ask and how to ask. I have preached it for years. Are you listening? People’s prayer or concerns are not answered because you are not 100% listening. Do you need deliverance? Do you need to be healed? Do you need a breakthrough? Most are not listening because you have yet to fully respect Kingdom authority and give honor where honor is due but have hints of dispisement.
“Despisement” refers to the feeling or expression of contempt, scorn, jealousy, offense, dislike, envy, grumbling, complaining, competition, or loathing towards someone or something.”
Think about these questions.
Are you listening 100% to be healed, or are you venting to find relief? Are you listening 100% or is your posture a “whatever attitude”? This whatever attitude is despising and disrespectful. Then you will continue to struggle. I say and remind for your benefit and not mine. You do not agree with me? Go ask the Beloved Holy Spirit about this concern.
If you need reminding on how and what to pray, go read Psalms chapters 2-9 on how to posture yourself before God and pray.
Additional Comments:
Will you continue to be stubborn and not listen?
How do you listen to your parents? Your spouses? Your bosses? Your teachers? Your pastors? It shows how you listen to God.
Listening 100% and giving respect is a posture of humility.
Listening and having thoughts of:
“Here we go again.”
“Whatever”
“I hate you!”
“How can you have authority over me?”
You are too young to be giving me instructions.”
“Why you?”
Etc
Are all postures of Disrespect

Matthew 13:15 NLT “For the hearts of these people are hardened, and their ears cannot hear, and they have closed their eyes— so their eyes cannot see, and their ears cannot hear, and their hearts cannot understand, and they cannot turn to me and let me heal them.’”
Jesus cannot heal them because they are not listening to Him 100%. In fact, Jesus wants to heal them, but it is the people who do not want to be healed, for they would rather stay the old man/woman.
Think about the scripture! Healing equates to fully 100% listening and looking. Whether healing, deliverance, breakthrough, or prayers answered, you need to be 100% listening and watching with no bias or disrespect.
