Needing Intercessors!

So he said he would destroy them - had not Moses, his chosen one, stood in the breach before him to keep his wrath from destroying them.
Psalms 106:23

Prayer isn't just about you, it's about others. Behind every great spiritual awakening, the kind that radically changes people and shakes up communities, there's an unseen, unstoppable force known as 'intercessors'. Many of the victories we celebrate in the open were first won in the secret place of prayer by these intercessors! It's their specialized ministry. And God could be calling you to be one of them! It's a two-fold calling; first you minister to the Lord through service to those in need (your worship), then you minister to the lost through witness. Even though your feeble limbs can't carry you beyond your own front door, through prayer you can limit Satan's movements and defeat his best-laid strategies. 'How?' you ask. By calling the forces of heaven into any situation, anywhere, anytime, for anybody. No wonder the enemy will do 'whatever it takes' to keep you from praying! Check out these two Scriptures: a) 'Ask of Me, and I shall give Thee the heathen for Thine inheritance, and the uttermost parts of the earth for Thy possession' (Psalm 2:8). It's time to move beyond your 'bless me' prayers, and begin to touch nations! What you prayerfully declare on earth (as long as it lines up with His Word), God will authorize in heaven. b) 'The harvest is plentiful but the workers are few. Ask the Lord of the harvest, therefore, to send out workers into His harvest field' (Matthew 9:37-38). It works like this: your prayers move God. God moves people. People move nations. Nations are changed. The whole thing begins with one praying person - today let that person be you.

Prayer
Heavenly Father, I pray for those in the world that are your disciples that are being persecuted for their faith in you. Keep them strong, keep them faithful, give them your spiritual protection to stay the course. In Jesus' Name, Amen
