1 prayer , declaration , and decreeing prayer Position PaperRev. William Hyer, Academic DeanIn recent years, a number of people in the Church have adopted the teaching of decreeing prayer or simply decreeing . This is the belief that believers in the Lord Jesus Christ, and the Church by its very nature, have been given authority and power to decree, and that this can be done in the form of prayer . decreeing prayer is conceived of as an authoritative command or law issued by a believer to cause something to happen, most generally to bring what is in heaven into the earthly realm.
3 Notice the distinction in Philippians 4:6, “Be anxious for nothing, but in everything by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving, let your requests be made known to God.” “Prayer” is “supplication and “request” and it is made “with thanksgiving.” 4 Jeff A. Benner, Ancient Hebrew Research Center
