Labouring with the Oil of Grace

Join This HeartCry Prayer - Every Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday and Friday 11:30am -1:30pm (UK time)

Zechariah 4:7-10 (KJV)

“Who art thou, O great mountain? before Zerubbabel thou shalt become a plain: and he shall bring forth the headstone thereof with shoutings, crying, Grace, grace unto it. Moreover the word of the Lord came unto me, saying, The hands of Zerubbabel have laid the foundation of this house; his hands shall also finish it; and thou shalt know that the Lord of hosts hath sent me unto you.  For who hath despised the day of small things? for they shall rejoice, and shall see the plummet in the hand of Zerubbabel with those seven; they are the eyes of the Lord, which run to and fro through the whole earth. 

The Effects of The Oil of Grace in Kingdom Labour: 

1. Difficulty paves way for labour – as long as one remains firmly rooted in Christ, no opposition against any service ordered by God unto Himself and for His glory will stand...(Isaiah 40:4 - 5) 

 2. Regular connection to The Throne of Grace – the Grace of The Spirit of God is poured out without measure and received at the Throne of Grace...(Hebrews 4:16) 

Prayer: 

  • Lord please affect my heart and the whole of my body in such a way that it will achieve greatly for You. 
  • Lord help me to walk daily in Faith that moves mountain, together with the Grace that levels mountain. 
  • Make me a captive at the Throne of Grace, where I will constantly labour without struggle or without human effort. 
  • Lord let me not frustrate Your Grace in every area of my life: keep me near Your Throne of Grace where I will always find mercy. 

3. Divine multiplication of every little effort or move – God chooses weak things to bring about great things by way of Grace. As a great mountain can become plain, so can a little stone out of a mountain makes a difference when God is in it...(Isaiah 60:22) 

4. Divine focus on every aspect of one's labour in God's Kingdom – much will be achieved with little when the watchful Eyes of God are upon the labour...(2nd Chronicles 16:9): to inspire the work, to direct it according to the counsel of heaven, to see to its precision and to submit it to the proposals from above. 

Prayer: 

  • Lord please help me not to leave out the place of Your Grace in my labour: maintain and sustain Your labour in my hands. 
  • Grant me the divine revelation of the difference that Your Greatness makes in my little. 
  • Lord please unite my heart and my hand in my walk with You: make both one in my labour for Your Kingdom. 
  • Inspire Your work in my hands: and cause it to meet the standard of the counsels of heaven.
