This is Greater than prayer | Apostle EDu Udechukwu #prayer #apostleeduprayers

Apostle EDu Udechukwu teaches that God prioritizes relationship over religious performance. Many believers engage in lengthy prayers, fasting, and Bible study yet fail to connect with God's heart because they lack genuine intimacy with Him. Prayer is not a transaction to get God to do what we want—it is meant to foster a relationship with the Father. Key Points: 1. Relationship unlocks answers: Just as a son can access his father more easily than a stranger, our prayer potency depends on the depth of our relationship with God. 2. Prayer is not about performance: Many pray with hiddenistic mindsets—seeking only to consume upon their own lusts, caring nothing for God's heart. This is why prayers go unanswered. 3. Jesus' model of prayer: When Jesus' boat was shaking, He slept in peace because He knew His Father was aware He was there. His language was, "Father, I know that You hear Me always." 4. The declaration of "no prayer failures": Apostle shares a transformative encounter when he heard a man of God declare, "I don't have prayer failures." Initially sounding like blasphemy, this revelation taught him that when you pray from relationship, answers surely come—though sometimes not in the form expected. 5. God knows how to answer: Jesus prayed for the cup to pass, yet received strength instead. That was still an answer. For those in relationship, no pain, trial, or prayer is wasted—God works all things together for good. 6. The priority of His presence: Even when answers delay, if you have met with God and experienced His presence, you have not failed. The relationship itself is the greatest reward. Conclusion: "If everything in my prayer fails, but my relationship with God is advancing, I have not failed yet."
