And if children, then heirs; heirs of God, and joint-heirs with Christ; - Romans 8:17
We need boldness to act on God's Word. We need boldness to act on what the Spirit of God may say to us.
The believer has covenant rights in prayer, as well as other covenant rights. The problem that defeats believers in their prayer life is the feeling of inferiority -- a sense of sin-consciousness. Some Christians begin their prayers with, "I'm so weak and unworthy,” and then harp on their weaknesses and unworthiness throughout the prayer.
"I, even I, am He that blotteth out thy transgressions for mine own sake and will not remember thy sins." - Isaiah 43:25
We are sons and daughters of God, joint-heirs with Jesus Christ. We are covenant people, and as we are covenant people we have a legal right -- a Body of Christ right -- to go into the Presence of God the Father with the same confidence and assurance that Jesus has. And we can do it boldly!
