Focused Fasting and Prayer: September - June
Calling the Church To Prayer
The Holy Spirit is intensifying the call to God's presence, calling His Church to return
to the altar of prayer and intercession. God's heart and passion is to fulfill His
redemptive purpose throughout the world. God is looking for Prayer Warriors to stand
in the gap and bring His redemptive will to families, cities, and nations.
Ezekiel 22:30 "So I sought for a man among them who
would make a wall, and stand in the gap before me on behalf of the land, that I should
not destroy it."
Isaiah 62:7 "I have set watchmen on your walls, O Jerusalem; they shall never hold
their peace day or night. You who make mention of the Lord do not keep silent, and give
him no rest till He establishes and till He makes Jerusalem a praise in the earth."
Intercessors are an integral part of God's redemptive plan. When we pray and intercede God is making His appeal through us for that person or situation. We have the incredible privilege of representing the sick and the broken, our city and our nation to Christ. As we pray we are are also representing the finished work of Christ to the situation we are praying for.
Intercession is God partnering with man on behalf of the needs of a lost and sinful world. As the church comes together in united prayer, we make way for God to display His glory! Satan cannot stand before a wall of prayer and unity!
Focus of Prayer Warriors:
- A Harvest of Souls in Edmonton
- Renewal of Personal Evangelism
- Spiritual Warfare over strongholds of resistance to God's declared purposes
