Throne Room Prayers

Throne room prayer is prayer that is crafted from a majestic viewpoint. It is the type of prayer that makes our God bigger than any and every circumstance or situation that is placed before you. When we think about a throne room we think about a majestic place in heaven where the Father abides. We get the sense of a place in time and space outside of ourselves. We may even imagine in our mind’s eye a picture as depicted in the Apostle John’s vision in the Book of Revelation. However, the Father, by His Holy Spirit abides in all of us, so let me suggest to you that you have access to the throne room when you attune your whole heart and whole mind toward the Father. In that sense, we can meet the Father in the throne room of our hearts, and that can be done anywhere, when we sit and focus our attention on the Father and His majesty. The throne room seen from this perspective, is then not only about a far way mystical place, but it is also a very present and authentic space where we can meet the Father, right here, right now in the throne room of our hearts and minds, in which He also resides.

Throne room prayer is about covering everything with the majesty of the Father. It is the type of prayer that Jesus used to feed the multitude, Elijah used to stop the rain, and the early church used to miraculously free Peter from jail. Throne room prayer is setting into motion on earth the activities that are happening in heaven. It is doing our part in preparing the way for the supernatural to come into the natural.

Throne room prayer simply believes God at His word. It requires belief in the dominion, power, authority and majesty of the Father. Everything about God is majestic. Majesty is an English word derived from the Latin word maiestas, meaning “greatness.” We serve a great God who is able to do exceedingly and abundantly above all that we can ask or think (Eph. 3-20-21)! Sadly, many Christians in the Western church come to God with prayers from a limited, earthbound perspective. We often say prayers that give the enemy more power then the Father. We use earthbound logic and reasoning to try to get the Father to do something for us. We pray from a stance of defeat trying to gain victory over a situation or circumstance. We often want God to rescue us, failing to see that He already rescued us when He nailed His Son to the cross.
