Q40: Welcome to prayer training by Jesus.. The Author has done prayer training for some time now, fasting each Monday and learning how to pray Prayer Promises, as found in David's prayers. Many of David's prayers are inspired with new themes and words, and even prophetic with themes concerning Jesus during His Second Coming. There is little evidence of David supporting Jesus using words of support from previous prayers or words from Scripture, and this puzzles the Author somewhat. If you turn on the cross reference feature of Power Bible CD, you do see David's prayers supporting Scripture, but it's not obvious or that common. So here is evidence that David's prayers are supporting Scripture: (1) Prayer 1:4 The ungodly are not so: but are like the chaff which the wind driveth away.
Job 21:18 They are as stubble before the wind, and as chaff that the storm carrieth away.
" Chaff" and " winds of the Holy Spirit" used by David, who obviously studied Job very carefully in his day.
(2)
Prayer 2:12 .. Blessed are all they that put their trust in him.
Prayer 34:8.. Blessed is the man that trusteth in him.
"Blessed" and "trust", same Hebrew words.
(3)
Prayer 2:6 Yet have I set my king upon my holy hill of Zion.
Prayer 3:4.. and he heard me out of his holy hill. Selah.
" holy" and " hill", same Hebrew words.
(4)
Job 16:10 They have gaped upon me with their mouth; they have smitten me upon the cheek ..
Prayer 3:7 ..for thou hast smitten all mine enemies upon the cheek bone ..
" smitten" and " cheek", same Hebrew words.
(5)
Prayer 4:5 .. Offer the sacrifices of righteousness,..
De 33:19 ..there they shall offer sacrifices of righteousness:..
" sacrifices" and " offer", same Hebrew words.
(6)
Prayer 4:6 ..LORD, lift thou up the light of thy countenance upon us.
Nu 6:26 The LORD lift up his countenance upon thee, and give thee peace.
"lift" and "countenance", same Hebrew words.
(7)
Prayer 4:8..LORD, only makest me dwell in safety.
Le 25:18 ..and ye shall dwell in the land in safety.
"dwell" and "safety", same Hebrew words.
(8)
Job 17:7 Mine eye also is dim by reason of sorrow,..
Prayer 6:7 Mine eye is consumed because of grief;..
"eye" and "sorrow or grief", same Hebrew words. David again supports Prayer Promises found in Job. Amazing.
(9)
Prayer 7:14.. and hath conceived mischief,..
Job 15:35 They conceived mischief,..
"conceived" and "mischief", same Hebrew words.
(10)
Prayer 15:2 He that walketh uprightly, and worketh righteousness,..
Isa 33:15 He that walketh righteously, and speaketh uprightly;..
The Hebrew words "walk" and "righteously or righteousness" are the same Hebrew words, but promise themes are added to each other here.
(11)
De 32:10 .. he kept him as the apple of his eye.
Prayer 17:8 Keep me as the apple of the eye,..
"apple" and "eye", same Hebrew words.
(12)
Prayer 19:12 Who can understand his errors? cleanse thou me from secret faults.
Le 4:2..If a soul shall sin through ignorance
"errors and ignorance" is only one Hebrew word, but David is aware of his condition, and supporting this prayer promise.
(13)
Prayer 22:6 But I am a worm, and no man; a reproach of men,..
Job 25:6 How much less man, that is a worm? and the son of man, which is a worm?
David's prayer is prophetic supporting Job's prophetic prayer saying the "son of man is a towla worm."
David's prayer is making the same claim, prophetic concerning Jesus as a towla worm.
(14)
Isa 46:3 .. which are borne by me from the belly, which are carried from the womb:
Prayer 22:10 I was cast upon thee from the womb: thou art my God from my mother's belly.
"belly" and "womb", same Hebrew words. This prayer promise concerns how GOD carries us from the "belly" or "compassion-centre" which are specifically simile powers of the Holy Spirit, but also poetry pictures of GOD and the Family Love for mankind.
(15)
Job 29:10 ..and their tongue cleaved to the roof of their mouth.
Prayer 22:15 ..and my tongue cleaveth..
David's prayer is taking Job's prayer using the same prophetic words concerning Jesus, the Hebrew words "tongue" and "cleaved" are the same.
(16)
Prayer 23:4 Yea, though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death,..
Job 3:5 Let darkness and the shadow of death stain it;..
The compound word " shadow of death" is the same Hebrew theme across both David and Job's prayers. The earliest prayer recorded in the Bible is Job.
When you talk to GOD and GOD talks back, as found in Job directly, this is a physical prayer, today God talks back only via the Holy Spirit through our conscience. O for the holy days before the Great Flood, as in the days of Job.
We really should also study Job as the first and oldest prayer recorded in Scripture. Thanks Lord for showing me Job is also poetry prayer.
(17)
Prayer 37:11 But the meek shall inherit the earth ;..
Prayer 25:13 His soul shall dwell at ease; and his seed shall inherit the earth.
The words "inherit" and "earth" are the same Hebrew words. David is defining the meekas a soul fixed intently upon Jesus, in relationship.
(18)
De 9:29 Yet they are thy people and thine inheritance ,..
Prayer 28:9 Save thy people, and bless thine inheritance :..
The words "people" and "inheritance " are the same Hebrew words. David is defining the meek as a soul fixed intently upon Jesus, in relationship. David's prayers are supporting Jesus teachings, the writing Moses was inspired to write by Jesus.
(19)
Prayer 29:10 The LORD sitteth upon the flood ;..
Ge 6:17 And, behold, I, even I, do bring a flood of waters upon the earth,..
An interesting prayer insight of David, God sits down on the earth where land floats upon a flood of water underneath. David's prayers show deep insight.
(20)
Jer 6:25 ..and fear is on every side.
Prayer 31:13 .. fear was on every side:..
"fear" and "side", same Hebrew words. David is supporting parts of Scripture, or Prayer Promises in his prayers to GOD.
(21)
Job 26:13 By his spirit he hath garnished the heavens;
Prayer 33:6 By the word of the LORD were the heavens made; and all the host of them by the breath of his mouth.
"spirit" and "heavens", same Hebrew words. David is supporting parts of Scripture, showing us the Holy Spirit helped Jesus in creating the earth.
(22)
Prayer 33:9 For he spake, and it was done; he commanded, and it stood fast.
Ge 1:3 � And God said,..
David's prayers are supporting the Scriptures he has read. David thinks of the Scriptures and adds thoughts to them in his prayers.
Our prayers to Jesus should do the same, showing we support (by speaking as Jesus also spoke) His teachings of Scripture.
(23)
Job 21:18 They are as stubble before the wind, and as chaff that the storm carrieth away.
Prayer 35:5 Let them be as chaff before the wind: and let the angel of the LORD chase them.
David is supporting a major theme in Scripture, the Hebrew words "holy spirit wind" and "chaff" are the same, but David further explains this as a messenger to YWHW-Jesus.
This is an interesting simile parallel David makes.
(24)
Now hopefully the Author has convinced readers, our prayers must be like Job and David. We have to support Scripture, especially parts of Scripture that have Promised Powers in them.
This is how we are to pray, as Scripture shows us. Not our own words all the time, but supporting Jesus words and Jesus will support you. Speaking words as Jesus spoke words, that were commanded and stood fast. That is the Hebrew sola scriptoria definition of faith. Shalom
Our Father in heaven, thank you for prayer,
thank you for helping us speak Your Promised Power in Your Son's Words,
may we bring forth your fruits of character in their season, fill us from Your Compassion-Centre,
we support Jesus words. Amen
Next we consider poetry prayers by the Author written over 40 years ago, examining them in their "babe" form for evidence of "supporting" Jesus.
