About This Message
Commanding Restoration (The Force of Strategic Prayer) is a message by Apostle Joshua Selman, preached in Lagos, Nigeria, on how prayer enforces the restoration God has promised His people.
Apostle Selman opens with Amos 9 and Psalm 103, showing that restoration is one of the benefits of the Kingdom, and that you cannot place a demand on a promise you do not know exists. From Philippians 1:19, he teaches that even the most disappointing situation can turn to a believer’s salvation through prayer and the supply of the Spirit. He then contrasts prayer that is merely loud with prayer that is strategic, and presents four ways prayer enforces restoration: it activates the ministry of angels, it lets you exercise your will, it brings counsel and direction from the Holy Spirit, and it activates discernment against satanic traps.
Along the way, he shares accounts of angelic ministry, speaks on the place of declarations and decrees, and teaches on hearing God’s direction, timing, and the restraint of the Spirit. The message closes with prayers and declarations over joblessness, stagnation, and barren seasons, turning the wilderness into a fruitful field and then a forest.

Key Scripture
