Understand their need
Find THEIR faith
Listen for God’s voice
Allow God to speak to you.
Allow God to speak through you.
Go to Your Closet
Trust your instinct and stay clear of condemnation and judgmental behavior
Pray in Faith
Keep it CONFIDENTIAL (Between you and God)
If you’re informing people that you are praying for them, then stop praying for them, and pray with them.

5. Praying With Someone
God, I thank you for the opportunity to touch and agree with (their name). We ask you for forgiveness of all our faults of anything we may have said or done against your will. I lift *** up before you as he/she face the situation he/she is going through. I know you have a purpose for this and you will receive glory from his/her life. You word says 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 and it shall be done. We believe in your power and praise you now for the victory you have already given us in Jesus name we pray. Amen

6. Praying in The Spirit
For if I pray in a tongue, my spirit prays, but my mind is unproductive [because it does not understand what my spirit is praying]. 1 Cor 14:14 AMP But ye, beloved, building up yourselves on your most holy faith, praying in the Holy Ghost, Jude 24

7. Praying in The Spirit
26 Likewise the Spirit also helpeth our infirmities: for we know not what we should pray for as we ought: but the Spirit itself maketh intercession for us with groanings which cannot be uttered.
27 And he that searcheth the hearts knoweth what is the mind of the Spirit, because he maketh intercession for the saints according to the will of God Romans 8:26-27

8. How Do I Pray in the Spirit.
It comes as a benefit of being saved and receiving the baptism of the Holy Spirit.
It’s God’s Spirit praying through You
It’s not through education, It’s through an experience.
God need’s an audible tone of praise/worship as you hunger for Him.
You have to receive Him ( The Holy Ghost)
You don’t have to speak in tongues you get to speak in tongues.
Say what you hear or feel in your Spirit. This is not an emotional act.
