Supernatural Citizens
Prayer Material
Citizens of the Kingdom of God have Kingdom rights, Kingdom access and Kingdom keys. These keys aren’t physical or material but supernatural.
We serve an invisible Kingdom, and God gives us the keys representing the attributes of Heaven: righteousness, peace and joy in the Holy Ghost. These heavenly attributes set us apart to go into the world and be an example to the nations.
“Now, therefore, you are no longer strangers and foreigners, but fellow citizens with the saints and members of the household of God...” Ephesians 2:19 (NKJV)
Pray The Word
We need the Kingdom of God to manifest in the nations. When that happens, we will see righteousness and peace established. Here are a few Bible verses to help us pray.

Week 1
1. OUT OF THIS WORLD
Citizens of the Kingdom of God have Kingdom rights, Kingdom access, and Kingdom keys. These keys aren’t physical or material but supernatural.
We serve an invisible Kingdom, and God gives us the keys representing the attributes of Heaven: righteousness, peace, and joy in the Holy Ghost. These heavenly attributes set us apart to go into the world and be an example to the nations.
“Now, therefore, you are no longer strangers and foreigners, but fellow citizens with the saints and members of the household of God...” Ephesians 2:19 (NKJV)
2. LIMITLESS
-
You may think the problems in the nations are too big to solve, BUT God is much bigger than any earthly problem.
-
Jesus lived in the power and the glory; He is our example of how to live. When we live by the Spirit, we walk in a higher realm with God. He gives us supernatural knowledge to deal with our problems. Write down any problems or troubles that the nations are facing and give them to God.
PRAY: Lord, thank You that You made us citizens of Heaven and have given us access to Your Kingdom. We repent and ask forgiveness where we’ve limited You and didn’t trust in Your ability to change the nations. Amen.
3. SUPERNATURAL CITIZENS
There are things we need to battle. Many people are struggling with addictions, identity issues, and other daily attacks from the world.
We can win these battles by pressing into God daily. Love Him. Worship Him. And fight the battles with Kingdom keys.
“Then he said to me, ‘This is what the Lord says to Zerubbabel: It is not by force nor by strength, but by my Spirit, says the Lord of Heaven’s Armies.’” Zechariah 4:6 (NLT)
4. PRAY FOR THE WORLD
Set time aside and pray for the nations to be Kingdom-minded.
Week 2
1. KINGDOM DNA
Culture defines attitude and behavior. We represent the culture of God’s Kingdom. Jesus said, “My kingdom is not of this world.” The Church must not dilute the Gospel to become culturally relevant, replacing Kingdom culture with worldly culture.
Paul said we must become all things to all people to reach them, but we must not change the essence of who we are. Kingdom culture is passed through imitation. Jesus said we must be imitators of Him.
“Therefore, be imitators of God as dear children.” Ephesians 5:1 (NKJV)
2. KINGDOM REALITY
“But seek first the kingdom of God and his righteousness, and all these things will be added to you.” Matthew 6:33 (ESV)
-
When we seek God’s Kingdom, He unlocks the supernatural and miracles. Then we will experience victories in the nations.
-
In Kingdom reality, you experience what God has planned for you to reflect His Kingdom. Are you holding onto a worldly culture that hinders God’s Kingdom culture in your life?
PRAY: Lord, I lay down my earthly culture for your Kingdom culture. Thank you for your promise that as I seek Your face, You will use me for Your Kingdom. Let Your Kingdom come in the nations. Amen.
3. SUPERNATURAL CITIZENS
Simon Peter was in jail (Acts 12). The saints of the Lord were praying day and night. They were a praying church. They wanted to know Jesus. They were hungry for Jesus. They were seeking the Lord.
Simon Peter was in a bad place, but the saints were praying, not straying, and angels came and rescued Simon Peter from jail. If the Lord wakes you up to pray, then pray. Take that time to pray because you never know who it is going to bless.
“While Peter was being kept in jail, the church never stopped praying to God for him.” Acts 12:5 (CEV)
4. PRAY FOR THE WORLD
Set time aside and pray for the nations to be Kingdom-minded.
Week 3
1. ABOVE…
Climbing a mountain is lonely. Following Jesus is the ascended life. We progress when we ascend. Go up the mountain; don’t become entangled and bogged down by mediocrity and carnality. The fire of God is on the mountain. It’s walking in the Spirit, a Spirit-filled life.
Jesus ascended. We are called to ascend higher. He said, “...believe me, the hour cometh, when ye shall neither in this mountain nor yet at Jerusalem, worship the Father.” God is the Alpha and the Omega. He is the beginning and the end. It means there is a beginning, and He is also at the end. He is saying that He is not bound by space and time. When we step into Spirit and truth, we are in harmony with the height, depth, and breadth of all that God is, and we break the limitations of your situation in worship.
“For God is Spirit, so those who worship him must worship in spirit and in truth.” John 4:24 (NLT)
2. AND NOT BELOW…
-
The Kingdom of God is not physical, and it’s not fleshly; you must have an open heart to receive it. Many people think the Kingdom of God is a nice building, but the Church is spiritual and for spiritual people.
-
You need to be born again; it’s a spiritual birth. To be born of the Spirit is to be born from above. The danger with many people is that they are born of the Spirit, but they live below – caught up in the things of this world. Take a moment and ask yourself: Are you living in the above realm, or are the cares of this world weighing you down?
PRAY: Lord, thank You that I am born of the Spirit. Help me to set my mind on Your Kingdom that is above and not be bogged down by mediocrity and carnality. Amen.
3. SUPERNATURAL CITIZENS
Faith is an action. Abraham had faith, and he believed God. His faith empowered him to hope in the impossible. Christ was his hope. We should do likewise and persevere by speaking life into our negative circumstances.
Keep speaking the Word. Continue incubating the Word in your situation; the breakthrough will come. Walk by faith and not by sight—praising God, thanking God, carrying the burden through the night—ascending higher.
“Abraham had faith and obeyed God. He was told to go to the land that God had said would be his, and he left for a country he had never seen.” Hebrews 11:8 (CEV)
4. PRAY FOR THE WORLD
Set time aside and pray for the nations to be Kingdom-minded.
Week 4
1. EYES TO SEE
Elisha had a heavenly vision, and he pursued his spiritual father into that place. God called us as His people to have a heavenly vision. It is easy to stay stuck in carnality, in the natural, and in the diversions of this world.
The world is filled with trouble; it’s filled with sensual stimulation. God is saying we must have a heavenly vision, not a worldly vision.
“...I was not disobedient unto the heavenly vision...” Acts 26:19 (KJV)
2. HEAVENLY VISION
-
Heavenly vision is not looking up and thinking about the stars and clouds; it’s the heavenly call, the supernatural call.
-
Before God formed you in your mother’s womb, God knew you. God destined you; He created you. He has plans for you; He has a purpose for you. It is up to you to stay disciplined and focused. Life will bombard you with all kinds of things—disappointments, hurts, addictions, temptations, stimulations, failures, successes, and rejections. Stay focused on God the Father so that He will say to you, “Well done, My good and faithful servant.”
PRAY: Lord, thank You that I have a purpose and destiny for my life. Help me walk in the purpose You have for my life. Amen.
3. SUPERNATURAL CITIZENS
Prayer’s purpose is not to change God’s mind but ours. Prayer changes situations and circumstances. Prayer changes hearts; it changes lives. Prayer destroys the works of the devil and defeats demonic strongholds assigned to hinder our purpose and our destiny.
The greatest power and wealth you have as a child of God is not in gold, platinum, or diamonds; it’s in prayer. The ability and power to pray and seek God’s face is not something taken lightly.
“Never stop praying.” 1 Thessalonians 5:17 (NLT)
4. PRAY FOR THE WORLD
Set time aside and pray for the nations to be Kingdom-minded.
Week 5
1. LIFT OFF
Many Christians miss the fulfillment of God’s plan because they are too focused on earthly solutions for God’s kingdom. God’s plan doesn’t come through worldly things, the flesh, or observation; it’s a spiritual kingdom filled with righteousness, peace, and joy in the Holy Ghost.
In the Bible, the Jews were looking for a natural kingdom and missed what came by faith. Today, many are so “churchified” that they miss what God is doing. We have eyes to see and ears to hear, but we need faith to walk in it.
“For the kingdom of God is not meat and drink, but righteousness, and peace, and joy in the Holy Ghost.” Romans 14:17 (KJV)
2. IN YOUR HEART
-
Jesus was anointed to bring the message of the Kingdom of God and establish His Kingdom in your heart. “Nor will people say, Look! Here [it is]! or, See, [it is] there! For behold, the kingdom of God is within you [in your hearts] and among you [surrounding you].” Luke 17:21 (AMPC)
-
The disciples asked Jesus, “How do you pray?” Jesus said, “Thy kingdom come.” It must manifest in your heart. The Kingdom is within you. There is so much power when it manifests within you.
PRAY: Lord, thank You that the Kingdom is within me. Help me walk in Your Kingdom-reality for my life so that I can be a Kingdom carrier in the nations. Amen.
3. SUPERNATURAL CITIZENS
We must pray diligently for the plans and the mandate of the Kingdom of God to be fulfilled in the world. We must pray for it to be established and that you become the planting of the Lord, a firmly planted tree of righteousness. Our place of faith and trust is in the Gospel, where the “Spirit of the Lord is upon me,” and the anointing manifests.
An earthly kingdom needs earthly land; a spiritual kingdom doesn’t. The earthly kingdom must submit to the heavenly kingdom. So, what are we praying for? We are praying for a spiritual kingdom.
“Your kingdom come, your will be done, on earth as it is in heaven.” Matthew 6:10 (ESV)
