Courts of Heaven Prayer Introduction

Hello, and welcome. My name is Chadwick Harvey. You have reached Faithful Performance. Thank you for joining us today as we go through a Courts of Heaven prayer during the hour of prayer at 3 p.m. Eastern Standard Time. We are entering into the Courts of Heaven today during the High Holy Days. As we all know, we entered the Feast of Trumpets last night, which is the first day of the seventh month. So, it is a great opportunity to step into the Courts of Heaven. If you are not familiar with this concept, we will explain it through biblical scriptures, highlighting its importance at this time with plenty of examples in the Bible showing how righteous verdicts are rendered. We are all weighed in the balance for ten days. The Feast of Trumpets is when the verdicts are given, and then we have ten days to be weighed, and it is sealed on Yom Kippur.

We will go through a couple of examples of this in a few minutes. To explain how this will unfold, we will first explain the Courts of Heaven and provide biblical scriptures. We will also look at what Yeshua did. We will be taking the bread and the wine. If anyone wishes to participate in the bread and the wine, I believe it is important to cleanse ourselves with them as we step into the Courts of Heaven. So, if you have your elements ready, please have them prepared. If not, you will have about fifteen minutes while I explain the Courts of Heaven. If you would like to go and get them, that would be wonderful. Then we will begin the prayer. We will open it up, and we will quote the Word of God throughout this entire process. I will pray into these scriptures after each one, and then we will open it up, and I will step aside to give everyone time to intercede and petition their cases in the Courts of Heaven. Then I will come back online to close the session.

Biblically speaking, it is very important to have two or three scriptures for your petitions. I am a strong believer in this. This is what Yeshua did when He was tempted by Satan. He quoted three scriptures, and Satan fled. He simply said, "It is written. It is written. It is written." This is a crucial understanding: using the Word of God to seal our prayers. Of course, there is nothing wrong with praying in general, but Yeshua, our Messiah, showed us that the power comes from the Word of God. This is what He did when He was tempted by Satan for forty days and forty nights, and then Satan fled from Him, as we all know. It is a very powerful understanding.

Also, if people do not understand how the courts work, Daniel 7 provides a great scene of the Courts of Heaven, as do Revelation 4 and 5. We will be reading Daniel 7 before we begin the prayer. A couple of things to remember: Yeshua told Peter, "Satan wanted to sift you, but I prayed for you." I personally believe He was interceding for Peter in the Courts of Heaven. We also know the story of Job. If you read the first chapter of Job, that was a Courts of Heaven scene. So, again, if people do not realize this, just as we have a court system here on earth, it was patterned after heaven, similar to the tabernacle. Down here, we have a judge, a district attorney, and an attorney. Up in heaven, we have the Supreme Judge, Yah. Then we have Yeshua as our attorney. And then we have the prosecutor, Satan. Revelation 12 states that he is up there right now, accusing the brethren day and night, trying to prevent us from receiving a righteous verdict.

So, my friends, we must meet that with Yeshua and the blessed Holy Spirit. We come before Yahweh, quoting scriptures boldly to the throne of grace so that we may find mercy and grace to help in a time of need. The scriptures are filled with these Courts of Heaven scenes, and He wants us to engage in this process, especially during these ten days between the Feast of Trumpets and Yom Kippur.
