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; but I found no one. (NKJV)
There are so many things happening in our families, in our communities, in our nation that can be overwhelming.
These situations may begin to make us wonder how things got so bad and lead to feelings of frustration.
Here is a quick reminder: Intercession turns situations around.
God gave us dominion over this earth and intercession is a means through which we can enforce God’s will on earth.
Matthew 6:9-10 In this manner, therefore, pray: Our Father in heaven, Hallowed be Your name. Your kingdom come. Your will be done. On earth as it is in heaven.(NKJV)
God is omnipresent. This means He is everywhere and can hear your cries anywhere. Don’t just watch things happen. Begin to pray about these things. Study the Word of God to see what God is saying about these areas of life and use scripture to guide your prayers.
You would be surprised at the peace you will get knowing God’s plan and being part of His plan. You would be surprised at the things that begin to shift because you used the authority that God has given you. You would be surprised at how close you draw to God in the process.
So cry out to God today!! Take time to pray!
PRAYER: Dear Father, thank you for being who you are. The Lord of lords and ruler of the Universe. I come to you asking you to move in the situations around me and in my nation. Please build faith in me and give me the grace to be a person committed to intercession. In Jesus name. Amen.
