There are some certain signs you will notice when your prayers is about to manifest.
Most at times when a major breakthrough is about to happen to a man, that is when some unusual kinds of temptations begins to come. This is because Satan is aware of what is about to happen. Now, because Satan cannot stop it, he begins to project temptations that can make that man use his own hands to abort what God is trying to do. This is when you may begin to experience some kind of offenses from people, things trying to propel you to act in anger.
In LUKE 4:14
Jesus returned to Galilee in the power of the Spirit, and news about him spread through the whole countryside.
The ministry of Jesus began to spread all over the region but before that breakthrough, in that same book of LUKE, it was after Jesus overcame the temptation that the major breakthrough came.
So this is the key, when you notice heighten temptation in a season that is the time to give yourself to consistency in your prayer life and in declaration of the word of God.
In MATTHEW 26:41
Watch and pray so that you will not fall into temptation. The spirit is willing, but the flesh is weak.
