The sun shone
Whatever you ask in My name, that I will do, that the Father may be glorified in the Son.
John 14:13 - NKJV
We used to hold a yearly outdoor fireworks event at my church. For awhile it was one of the best opportunities of the year for us to bring non-church goers onto our church premises. I remember the first one we held. It came at the end of one of Britain's wettest November weeks for decades. Yet, on the day itself the sun shone. It was a beautiful Autumn day. This weather was arranged weather. It was weather arranged by the prayers of the saints!
Do you need conditions arranging? If so, check first with the Holy Spirit about whether your sense of a need for change is right and then, if it is, make preparations to pray. How? First, establish there's a precedent. To do this search out some of the condition changing events of the Bible like Elijah stopping the rain or Jesus stilling the storm or the children of Israel bringing down Jericho's walls. Second, find some specific Bible promises (faith comes by hearing) for your prayer. Third, in prayer present your petition to God and, with the authority of Jesus' name, speak your requirement in the earth. Mat.18:19, Mar.4:39.
Jesus gave you power in prayer. He gave it as a practical means for you to use in organising the conditions of your life to His glory. We all, as believers, have a lot to learn and much confidence to gain about prayer. Jesus has given us boundless ability to alter situations or conditions by our prayers. It is different when it comes to people - people are granted by God the majesty of free will choices. However, objects have to come under your authority and conform to what you are requiring of them. Mar.11:22-24.
By prayer set the scene!
