Prophetic Intercession
Watch and Pray

flyer
For the past several months, I have been on my face before God under a heavy anointing of prayer. God has been showing me that we must accelerate and intensify our prayers and unite in strategic, spiritual warfare prayer in our nations as never before.
God has released exciting, new revelations and breakthrough teachings within the Body of Christ which have revolutionized the ministry and role of the intercessor. There are three major keys that will unlock the power of prayer in your life. These three things are the strong foundation for prayer that every intercessor must have to enter into the Presence of the Father and intercede effectively.
1. The blood!
2. The power!
3. The Name!
Without these three things, we can go through the motions, but there is no real prayer! We cannot rely on head knowledge, but we must have a deep revelation of the blood of Jesus, the power of the Holy Spirit, and the Name of Jesus that will produce results when we pray! Without the blood of Jesus there can be no access to the Father. Without the power and anointing of the Holy Spirit there can be no true prayer because prayer is born of the Spirit! And without the Name of Jesus we cannot present our petitions and supplications to the Father, because we must ask in His Name!
When you pray in the Name of Jesus, you invoke--put into operation--all of the power and authority in that Name to manifest healing, deliverance, or whatever you need. Use the Name of Jesus as a weapon of prayer to bind the demonic forces attacking you, knowing that in the Name of Jesus they must obey! There is no greater Name!
 Ask the Father to give you a fresh revelation and to clothe you with a prayer mantle of power and authority in His Name! Declare His Name! Pray His Name! Exalt His Name!

A New Dimension of Prophetic Intercession 

We are living in a very special time when the anointing of the Holy Spirit is coming upon the Body of Christ and bringing a revelation of God's eternal destiny to each one of us. The Lord Jeus Christ is taking His Church up to a new level, to a superior dimension in the Holy Spirit. This new dimension is known as prophetic intercession.
 
We read in the Book Genesis that the Lord put a tree in the middle of the Garden of Eden. Because of obedience versus disobedience, that tree ruled the interaction of any and every future human being. The tree would determine the destiny of that person, as it happened to Adam and Eve.
 
After man left the Garden of Eden, the Lord took man by the name of Abraham and made him a promise. He said, Abraham, I will bless everyone who blesses you. I will curse everyone who curses you. And Abraham took the role of the tree, because everybody would determine his or her own destiny through their interaction with Abraham. Anyone who would bless him would be blessed. It's still in effect today. Anyone who would curse him would be cursed!
 
The Lord took a whole people out of the loins of Abraham. One day, as recorded in the Book of Exodus, He said to His people, You are my people. You are my children. You are my family. I am your Father. I am your God. Everyone who blesses you will be blessed. So the people took the role of the tree and the role of Abraham. Anyone who blesses Israel is blessed, and anyone who curses it is cursed.
 
Now the Church of Jesus Christ is the element--the catalyst--that determines the destiny of the whole world. And the Lord deposited His authority, the authority of the Name of Jesus, upon the Church. Today, the Church holds the rein. The destiny of the whole world is in its hands through prayer.
 
There is a difference between intercession and prophetic intercession. When we intercede, we pray for something that is happening. Prophetic intercession is different. Jesus Christ prayed, Your will be done on earth as it is in heaven. In other words, instead of praying for what was happening, Jesus Christ was going to heaven to see and hear what the Father wanted to happen on the earth.
 
With prophetic intercession, instead of praying for what is happening now, we are praying for the future will of God to happen. A prophetic intercessor is someone who has his/her ear open toward heaven and his/her mouth open to earth. He/she hears what God wants him/her to pray and brings it from the spiritual realm to the natural realm.
 
The anointing of the Holy Spirit is coming upon His Church because He is giving His Church an end-time anointing for an end-time harvest. This wave of the Holy Spirit will manifest in two areas:
 
1. A new dimension of power from the Holy Spirit for prayer
2. A revelation of the fulfillment of eternal destiny for each believer.
 
It must not be anymore that believers walk and live their lives just surviving, without ever knowing what God called them for. That is just not how it will be in the end times. It's time for believers everywhere to get on their knees and pray, asking God to reveal His will to us about the problems and situations our nations are facing. It's time to pray until we get a breakthrough!
 
The Holy Spirit is coming upon His Church to bring the Church to a higher level.
 
 

LOOK UP...WATCH...PRAY....BE DILIGENT! 

God is unveiling His end time plan to us for a purpose. He wants us to be strengthened, to prepare for His coming and to be motivated into action. This is the Church's greatest hour. When you hear of wars, earthquakes, famines, disease, Jesus says, "FEAR NOT".

When you suffer persecution on your job, or among your family and friends for your commitment to God and your high moral standards...Jesus says, "DON'T BE DISCOURAGED".
 
Don't be surprised when persecution comes for the sake of the Gospel...expect it! Be ready for it! Some of you, right now, are facing persecution because of the Gospel. Do not be discouraged or afraid. Rejoice because the power and anointing of God is upon you.
 
Whatever you do, don't retreat! Don't be afraid. Do not water down, or compromise the message God has given you. Do not hold back in fear of what man will do or say to you. Do not be a men-pleaser. Shout it from the housetop! Regardless of the opposition or danger you may face, endure.
 
Regardless of the opposition and persecution we face in this end time harvest, the true Body of Christ will go forth in the power and anointing of the Holy Spirit to proclaim the gospel to the nations of the earth.
 
It's time for you to WATCH AND PRAY! Luke 21:36
It's time to TAKE HEED! Luke 21:34
It's time to BE DILIGENT...to be sure your life is spotless and blameless before God! 2 Peter 3:4
It's time to PERSEVERE...to remain stedfast, immovable, unshakable, grounded in the Word! 2 Peter 3:17
It's time to GROW in the knowledge of Christ! 2 Peter 3:18
 
It is my prayer that you will begin to sense the urgency of the hour in which we live. Knowing these things are coming to pass, you must increase all your efforts.
 
Increase your time spent in worship. Increase your time spent in interceding for the lost. Increase your efforts in witnessing. Increase your vision. Begin to reach out in new areas of ministry.
 
The false Christs are not the end...
The wars and rumors of wars are not the end...
The END WILL COME WHEN....
 
"...this gospel of the Kingdom shall be preached in all the world for a witness unto all nations; and then shall the end come"  (Matthew 24:14).
