Dr. Myles Munroe taught that prayer is humanity’s strategic partnership with Heaven, a means by which we legally invite God’s intervention in the affairs of earth. It’s not beggary—it’s dominion in action. audible.com +15 iyejareolusegun.medium.com +15 cokesbury.com +15

✨ Foundations of "Prayer with Purpose and Power"

1. Prayer is legal access 
   “Prayer is man giving God the legal right and permission to interfere in earth’s affairs. Prayer is man giving heaven earthly license to influence earth.” iyejareolusegun.medium.com
2. Dominion mandate
   As stewards of creation, we unlock Heaven’s power through prayer to shape our world.
3. Strategic, not emotional 
   Dr. Munroe emphasized structure: prayer requires discipline, scriptural grounding, faith-based declaration—not just emotion. reddit.com +13 barnesandnoble.com +13 bookshop.org +13
