Intercessory Blessings
It’s now your duty as a Christian to intercede for the nation, for churches, your communities, and for your family.
Just like Moses interceded for the Israelites, you are commissioned to intercede and bring your family to God.
Here is the thing I have learned about intercession; not only has God commanded you to intercede for others as a way to be a blessing to them; Intercession also blesses you. When you pray for others, God miraculously blesses you. God begins to open up your world, and show you a bigger, grander set of possibilities. Try praying for somebody else today!
Daniel 9 : 2 – 4 says: “in the first year of his reign, I , Daniel, perceived in the books the numbers of years that, according to the word of the Lord to Jeremiah the prophet, must pass before the end of the desolations of Jerusalem, namely, seventy years. Then I turned my face to the Lord God, seeking him by prayer and pleas for mercy with fasting, sackcloth, and ashes. I prayed to the Lord my God and made confession, saying, “O Lord, the great and awesome God, who keeps covenant and steadfast love with those who love him and keep his commandments”
Interceding for the people of Israel, brought Daniel into covenant relationship with God. This Year 2022, God is enlarging your territory. In the past I thought that if I simply prayed for an increase that’s all that mattered, but in this week of prayer, God has shown me, THERE CAN BE NO INCREASE WITHOUT SERVICE! For what shall I render unto him who has given me everything? The old saints would say, only what you do for Christ will last. So my beloved, the question before you today is: WHAT ARE YOU DOING FOR OTHERS? HOW ARE YOU HELP SOMEONE ELSE? WHAT SERVICE WILL YOU RENDER UNTO GOD? I need your help in the Kingdom.
