- 0:18Speaker 1: with the Lord first part of my day. Amen. And
- 0:21Speaker 1: thank you so much for joining me live, if you're
- 0:23Speaker 1: live with me, for joining this early in the morning,
- 0:27Speaker 1: for whatever time clock you're from. From the east Coast's
- 0:30Speaker 1: fot thirty am from the west coast. Amen, I think
- 0:34Speaker 1: it's a little earlier, right before us, so after us

- 0:43Speaker 1: Today we're gonna intercede talk about what interceding means, that
- 0:48Speaker 1: Christianese word that we use, intercession. Right, We're going to
- 0:51Speaker 1: talk about what that means is it's really powerful, actually, Amen.
- 0:56Speaker 1: And if you're into prayer, you already know you should
- 0:58Speaker 1: know what interceding means. To talk about that today, Sister Joanne,
- 1:01Speaker 1: I see you. Good morning, God bless you. Welcome back
- 1:03Speaker 1: to the Morning Devo. My sister and my friend. It's
- 1:06Speaker 1: so good to have you on the morning Devo. Amen,
- 1:09Speaker 1: so interceding, let me get to my notes before I
- 1:11Speaker 1: mess things up. Amen, on the morning Devo. So just
- 1:15Speaker 1: just checking my volume here and wow, I have my
- 1:18Speaker 1: volume on here too, So you heard me twice. Sorry,
- 1:22Speaker 1: So intercession, listen to this. Intercession is not about changing
- 1:28Speaker 1: God's mind. And I know a lot of people think, oh,
- 1:31Speaker 1: let's let's go to God and see if he could
- 1:33Speaker 1: change his mind. See we could change his mind about
- 1:35Speaker 1: this situation, in that situation, about that person's life, or
- 1:38Speaker 1: about salvation or healing and all that. We can't change
- 1:42Speaker 1: God's mind. God's mind is unchangeable. Amen, He's the same,
- 1:46Speaker 1: even remains the same. But intercession is not about changing
- 1:50Speaker 1: God's mind or persuading him to act. Some people think
- 1:54Speaker 1: if we pray enough, God will respond. He m. It's
- 1:59Speaker 1: about trusting his perfect plan for those we are praying for,
- 2:03Speaker 1: including ourselves. I'm gonna trust God's perfect plan over my
- 2:07Speaker 1: life and over all the people that I'm praying for,
- 2:10Speaker 1: over my marriage, our finances, our health, our children, our grandchildren, Amen,
- 2:15Speaker 1: our friends, relatives. Trusting God's perfect plan over their lives
- 2:21Speaker 1: while we're praying for them. That's interceding. We're praying on
- 2:25Speaker 1: behalf of others. And at the same time, if we
- 2:28Speaker 1: have a clear conscience and a clear mindset about who
- 2:33Speaker 1: we are in the Lord, there should be no problem.
- 2:36Speaker 1: Praying for others should not be a thing about. Let's
- 2:39Speaker 1: try to persuade God. Let's try to make God move,
- 2:42Speaker 1: Let's try to get God to respond. Let God, let's
- 2:46Speaker 1: try to change God's minds. Not about that, It's about
- 2:48Speaker 1: praying for others and trusting in God's perfect plan for
- 2:54Speaker 1: those we are praying for. Interceding Today in the morning,

- 6:14Speaker 1: Lord God, I trust your word. I thank you for
- 6:16Speaker 1: your word, thank you for your salvation, thank you for
- 6:18Speaker 1: rescuing and saving me. And I pray, Lord God for
- 6:20Speaker 1: all those family members in my family and family members
- 6:24Speaker 1: that are connected to every single person that's watching and
- 6:27Speaker 1: listening right now, that you would guidegard and protect them
- 6:29Speaker 1: as well. And as I intercede on behalf of my family,
- 6:33Speaker 1: my marriage, our children, my grandchildren, every single person that's
- 6:36Speaker 1: connected to us, I pray peace be still over their lives, health,
- 6:40Speaker 1: strength and protection. And in Jesus name, and I dispatched
- 6:43Speaker 1: and set forth ark Green Angels and minister Angels, Amen
- 6:47Speaker 1: to their places of dwelling, places, to their job places,
- 6:50Speaker 1: to their school, all by the power and the authority
- 6:53Speaker 1: of the Lord Jesus Christ. So in Jesus name, I
- 6:55Speaker 1: pray it is by faith, and all those who agree,
- 6:57Speaker 1: we say amen to that am Man, which is the
- 7:00Speaker 1: Lord Jesus himself. So help me out sixty seconds, how
- 7:03Speaker 1: me share this out when we come back, we'll get
- 7:05Speaker 1: right into today's morning Devo interceding right here, would your
- 7:09Speaker 1: brother say all regard back? Amen, Amen, thank you for
- 8:34Speaker 1: all the groups out there that allowed us to go
- 8:36Speaker 1: through on their group pages. I'm so grateful, amen, and
- 8:39Speaker 1: thankful for you doing that and allowing us to go
- 8:42Speaker 1: through and reach more people. That means it's reaching more souls.
- 8:46Speaker 1: And God's word is what changes things. God's word is
- 8:50Speaker 1: what's alive and active and sharpening any double edged short
- 8:52Speaker 1: God's word is what's really important here, Amen, And you
- 8:57Speaker 1: allow me to express that about way of the morning
- 8:59Speaker 1: DeVos are and your groups. Thank you so much. I'm
- 9:01Speaker 1: grateful for that and for all those who share this out. Amen.
- 9:04Speaker 1: That's encouragement. That means that you're bold enough to spread
- 9:07Speaker 1: the Gospel message to all your friends and family, even
- 9:10Speaker 1: those that you don't know that might come across this morning. Devo.
- 9:14Speaker 1: Let's allow God to move in their hearts as we
- 9:16Speaker 1: intercede and help others. Amen. Understand that God is good,
- 9:20Speaker 1: and understand that God is powerful. He's almighty, he's all powerful,
- 9:23Speaker 1: sovereign a man, He's in control. And ultimately, whatever comes
- 9:27Speaker 1: our way, ultimately God has the last say. Amen. So
- 9:31Speaker 1: interceding or praying on behalf of others is a beautiful
- 9:36Speaker 1: expression of love and care. A beautiful expression of love
- 9:42Speaker 1: and care. And when you love somebody, tell somebody the truth.
- 9:45Speaker 1: You're not gonna lie to somebody you love. Right when
- 9:48Speaker 1: you bring the truth to people that you love, they
- 9:52Speaker 1: might get you like who do you think you are?
- 9:54Speaker 1: And they might have an attitude brush you off, give
- 9:56Speaker 1: you the cold shoulder, But you do it anyway because
- 9:59Speaker 1: at the end of the day day, if you love
- 10:01Speaker 1: somebody of telling the truth, man, you don't want people
- 10:04Speaker 1: to go into different areas that you know that they're
- 10:07Speaker 1: in danger. So you intercede, you pray, first, Amen, and
- 10:10Speaker 1: then you approach pray. That's the way I do. I
- 10:12Speaker 1: pray first and then I approached Amen. If you know
- 10:16Speaker 1: me personally, you know I'm not into drama. You know
- 10:19Speaker 1: I'm not into confrontation and all that stuff. That's not me.
- 10:22Speaker 1: It's not my personality. That's who I used to be.
- 10:24Speaker 1: That's why I'm so cautious of how I approach people. Amen.
- 10:28Speaker 1: And because I know my old self was always green light.
- 10:32Speaker 1: But my new me in Christ, because of His power,
- 10:35Speaker 1: his Grayson's mercy, is developing to the person that you're
- 10:39Speaker 1: seeing on the screen. Now. People think I was always
- 10:41Speaker 1: like this and praise God because they don't know my
- 10:46Speaker 1: past and I don't talk about it a lot. But
- 10:49Speaker 1: everybody has a past. But when God comes into your life, Amen.
- 10:52Speaker 1: And when you start interceding and praying for others, they
- 10:55Speaker 1: look at you like why is he doing that? Or
- 10:56Speaker 1: why is she doing that? But make sure you speak
- 11:00Speaker 1: truth to people. And the truth that we have is
- 11:03Speaker 1: not our truth, it's the gospel truth of the scriptures. Amen.
- 11:06Speaker 1: That's just to encourage myself and to encourage other people
- 11:10Speaker 1: that's listening and watching. So let me put this on
- 11:12Speaker 1: the screen. So that way you can see what we're
- 11:14Speaker 1: talking about interceding. I don't know that person on the screen, Amen.
- 11:18Speaker 1: I just use the graphic because I think it shows
- 11:22Speaker 1: where I'm going with this. You know, people praying for others, Amen,
- 11:27Speaker 1: and solitude. You don't have to be how you call it.
- 11:31Speaker 1: You don't have to tell everybody, Hey, I'm praying for you.
- 11:34Speaker 1: It'd be a nice thing for people to know that
- 11:37Speaker 1: being prayed for. Depending on the situation, we gonna trust
- 11:40Speaker 1: Gods will right, but depending on the situation. A lot
- 11:44Speaker 1: of times, like ninety something percent of the time, I
- 11:46Speaker 1: don't tell people I'm praying for them, but when they're
- 11:49Speaker 1: down and out and they honestly need help, I come
- 11:54Speaker 1: along side. Sometimes Listen, I'm praying for you, and I
- 11:56Speaker 1: really am. And just in case they don't believe, I'll
- 12:00Speaker 1: just pray for them right there in the spot. I
- 12:01Speaker 1: intercede on their behalf. And then sometimes I don't know
- 12:05Speaker 1: what to say, but then I allow Holy Spirit God
- 12:07Speaker 1: to do the prayer anyway. Romans Chapter eight, twenty six
- 12:12Speaker 1: and twenty seven. The Bible says, in the same way,
- 12:15Speaker 1: the Spirit comes to us and helps us in our weakness. Amen.
- 12:20Speaker 1: And if you follow me. You already know my podcast.
- 12:23Speaker 1: I think a couple of years ago I told all
- 12:25Speaker 1: all myself all about all my weaknesses. Amen. So if
- 12:29Speaker 1: you really want to know where, you know, where does
- 12:31Speaker 1: he go wrong? What's his weakness? I really put it
- 12:34Speaker 1: out there, Amen, because then at the time that I
- 12:37Speaker 1: was putting it out there, I was acknowledging that when
- 12:40Speaker 1: I'm weak, God is strong, Amen. And my weakness is
- 12:43Speaker 1: when God shows his strength. We do not know what
- 12:47Speaker 1: prayer to offer or how to offer it as we should.
- 12:52Speaker 1: How many people's been there. I'm raising my hand. You
- 12:54Speaker 1: can't see me, but I'm raising my hand. I know
- 12:56Speaker 1: that I've been there. What do I pray for? Lord?
- 12:58Speaker 1: But the Spirit himself knows our need, and at the
- 13:04Speaker 1: right time interceedes on our behalf with size and groanings
- 13:11Speaker 1: too deep for words. And he who searches the hearts
- 13:17Speaker 1: knows what the mind of the spirit is. Because the
- 13:21Speaker 1: Spirit intercedes before God on behalf of God's people in
- 13:28Speaker 1: accordance with God's will. And you could cross reference to
- 13:32Speaker 1: this scripture to Psalm one point thirty nine, verses one
- 13:35Speaker 1: and two. Powerful Man, the Spirit comes to us and
- 13:40Speaker 1: helps us in our weakness you ever been in a
- 13:43Speaker 1: situation where you know you gotta pray, but you just
- 13:46Speaker 1: don't know how to start, You don't know how to pray. Well,
- 13:49Speaker 1: thank God for Holy Spirit. Amen, Thank you Holy Spirit
- 13:52Speaker 1: for knowing our spirit and for knowing our mind, and
- 13:57Speaker 1: for interceding on our behalf, because you know what we need.
- 14:03Speaker 1: You know how to pray, and sometimes not even with words,
- 14:06Speaker 1: sometimes but size and groanings. The other day, while I
- 14:10Speaker 1: was in service the men, they had an alter call,
- 14:15Speaker 1: and we usually do a gender friendly it's a male,
- 14:21Speaker 1: another male will pray for the male. If it's a
- 14:23Speaker 1: female and the female, we usually do it like that,
- 14:25Speaker 1: depending on the number of people go to alter. And
- 14:28Speaker 1: I promise you I went up to a couple of people,
- 14:31Speaker 1: just put my hands on their shoulders, a couple of men,
- 14:34Speaker 1: and I didn't know what to pray, So I just
- 14:36Speaker 1: relied on the Holy Spirit God to speak. I relied
- 14:39Speaker 1: on the Holy Spirit God to do the size and
- 14:42Speaker 1: the groaning, and rely on Holy Spirit just by the
- 14:44Speaker 1: touch to transfer the power and the love and the
- 14:47Speaker 1: grace to these men. Sometimes you don't have to use words.
- 14:50Speaker 1: Holy Spirit knows their heart. Holy Spirit knows the situation,
- 14:53Speaker 1: the Holy Spirit. God knows everything they are going through.
- 14:57Speaker 1: So sometimes we since we are finite, we have to
- 15:01Speaker 1: trust that infinite God who knows every heart that's in
- 15:05Speaker 1: the place, and rely on that and trust God will
- 15:08Speaker 1: meet them at their need. Amen. Sometimes it happens you
- 15:14Speaker 1: don't know what to pray, you don't know what to do,
- 15:15Speaker 1: you don't know what to say, And that's when we
- 15:17Speaker 1: have the power of Holy Spirit and that we'll intercede
- 15:20Speaker 1: on our behalf. It's about bringing the needs and concerns
- 15:24Speaker 1: of others before God right, trusting in His goodness and
- 15:29Speaker 1: power to work in their lives. And you've notice that
- 15:33Speaker 1: when you pray for others and you see the power
- 15:36Speaker 1: of God and you sense his presence and you know
- 15:39Speaker 1: that he's inside of you by way of Holy Spirit.
- 15:42Speaker 1: You pray for others and you trust His goodness and
- 15:44Speaker 1: power in others' lives, that goodness and power will show
- 15:48Speaker 1: up in your life. It's just the way it is
- 15:53Speaker 1: the economy of the Kingdom of God. Praying for others,
- 15:56Speaker 1: A man blesses you as well because you're praying to
- 15:59Speaker 1: the right, living, holy, righteous, loving God. Man. Well God
- 16:02Speaker 1: bless you. Good morning, Welcome back to the morning deve
- 16:04Speaker 1: with my friend and my brother. Yes, the Holy Spirit
- 16:07Speaker 1: makes intercession for us when we don't know what to say.
- 16:11Speaker 1: And that's a promise and that's a guarantee, and that
- 16:15Speaker 1: is true. Amen. I know that going up to strangers
- 16:18Speaker 1: sometimes and praying according to how Holy Spirit wants you
- 16:23Speaker 1: to pray is trusting in God's purpose and plan for
- 16:26Speaker 1: that person, trusting that He will give them the right word,
- 16:29Speaker 1: trusting that He knows all about them, even if I
- 16:32Speaker 1: don't know anything about them, Amen, Holy Spirit God. So
- 16:39Speaker 1: number one, have confidence in prayer. Be confident in your
- 16:45Speaker 1: prayer life. Amen. If you don't have a prayer life
- 16:48Speaker 1: and you're born again, God will show you how to pray.
- 16:53Speaker 1: Holy Spirit will help you to pray, Amen, even if
- 16:57Speaker 1: you don't have the words to say. I've been in
- 16:59Speaker 1: prayer circles that are like wow, those prayers, Like some
- 17:02Speaker 1: people really pray, and you could tell that they pray
- 17:05Speaker 1: often and a lot, and they use good words and
- 17:09Speaker 1: flowery words and stuffing like it's not that they're trying
- 17:11Speaker 1: to impress it. That's just to who they are. And
- 17:14Speaker 1: when I was a young Christian, I used to be
- 17:16Speaker 1: intimidated by that. And then he used to stop me
- 17:18Speaker 1: from speaking, But I got over that real quick because
- 17:21Speaker 1: I'm like, wait a minute, this is a conversation between
- 17:24Speaker 1: us and God. We don't have to try to outsmart
- 17:27Speaker 1: guard God with these words that we have to use
- 17:31Speaker 1: a dictionary for. We be who we are. I am
- 17:35Speaker 1: who I am, You are who you are. Speak to
- 17:37Speaker 1: God like if he's your best friend, because he is,
- 17:40Speaker 1: Like if he's your father, because he is. Like he's
- 17:43Speaker 1: your savior because he is a man, And he's your
- 17:45Speaker 1: protector because he is, because he's everything good in your life,
- 17:50Speaker 1: because he is. Speak to him, Amen. And the way
- 17:54Speaker 1: you speak to him, and the way you reverence him,
- 17:57Speaker 1: you respect him, you love him. Amen. It'll come out
- 18:01Speaker 1: naturally as a prayer to your Father, the Father, your
- 18:04Speaker 1: father in Heaven. Amen. So have confidence in prayer. As believers,
- 18:09Speaker 1: we have the privilege of approaching God with confidence because
- 18:14Speaker 1: of our union with Jesus Christ and Hebrews four sixteen.
- 18:18Speaker 1: We come to God boldly, to his throneom with grace.
- 18:22Speaker 1: We can intercede for others, knowing that God hears us
- 18:26Speaker 1: and cares deeply for the people that we're praying for.
- 18:29Speaker 1: So if we're concerned with people. How much more is
- 18:32Speaker 1: God concerned with those very sane people. That's why I
- 18:36Speaker 1: believe Jesus said, pray for your enemies. Amen, don't curse
- 18:40Speaker 1: the enemies. Pray for them. Why because God cares for them,
- 18:43Speaker 1: and he cares for them deeper than we do. Amen,
- 18:49Speaker 1: deeper than we do. Am I getting some agreement here
- 18:52Speaker 1: from Manuel. He who comes to God must do so
- 18:56Speaker 1: in spirit and in truth. Amen. We can't fool God.
- 19:01Speaker 1: So we speak to them like we love them, because

- 19:24Speaker 1: to the one who hears our prayers and responds accordingly. Amen.
- 19:28Speaker 1: So we can't mess prayer up. We could say things
- 19:32Speaker 1: maybe that don't make sense, and it might even it
- 19:36Speaker 1: might not even make sense to me myself when I'm praying.
- 19:39Speaker 1: But Holy Spirit knows exactly what he's doing. And when
- 19:42Speaker 1: you allow Holy Spirit to move and to pray through you, Amen,
- 19:45Speaker 1: it's a win situation. No one loses when you're interceding
- 19:49Speaker 1: for somebody else. Amen. As a matter of fact, nobody
- 19:53Speaker 1: would know. Most of the time I'm praying for people.
- 19:55Speaker 1: They don't even know I'm praying for them. Amen. I
- 19:58Speaker 1: pray for my family daily. Listen, that's a fact. I

- 20:09Speaker 1: know now if they watching or if they listen. But
- 20:12Speaker 1: I have to because I know there's always something to
- 20:15Speaker 1: pray for. I know that there's danger. Every time we
- 20:19Speaker 1: leave controlled environments, there's danger lurking, there's danger out there.
- 20:23Speaker 1: We have an enemy that's roaring like a lion, and
- 20:27Speaker 1: if we're making choices that could tempt us and to
- 20:32Speaker 1: lead us astray. Amen. I pray against those things, and
- 20:35Speaker 1: I pray over those things. And I'm sure that I'm
- 20:38Speaker 1: praying to the right God that have confidence and prayer. Amen,
- 20:42Speaker 1: And you'll see the fruit of that eventually. Now, Well says,
- 20:47Speaker 1: confident and assured that God is able to do abundantly
- 20:50Speaker 1: above all that we can think or act. Ephesians Chapter three,
- 20:54Speaker 1: verse doup of twenty. That's one of my life scriptures,
- 20:56Speaker 1: me and my wife's life scripture. Amen. Thank you for
- 20:58Speaker 1: sharing that confidence in prayer Number two. Be led by
- 21:04Speaker 1: the Spirit. And I know we say this a lot
- 21:07Speaker 1: in Christian circles. Let the Spirit lead, Let the Spirit lead.
- 21:10Speaker 1: Let's allow the spirit to do this. The Spirit's gonna
- 21:12Speaker 1: do what the Spirit is gonna do, regardless if we
- 21:14Speaker 1: allow him or not. Amen. The thing is is that
- 21:17Speaker 1: are we available, are we focused? Are we just open
- 21:25Speaker 1: for change? It's not what God can or can I do?
- 21:28Speaker 1: Because God could do all things. Amen. What he can't
- 21:31Speaker 1: do is the things that we think he wouldn't do anyway,
- 21:34Speaker 1: Like he can't die, he can't lie, Amen. He can't
- 21:36Speaker 1: take back his promises because he's a promise covenant keeping God. Amen.
- 21:43Speaker 1: He doesn't say one thing and then change his mind
- 21:46Speaker 1: to say another thing and then change his mind saying no.
- 21:48Speaker 1: God is not a man that he should lie, but
- 21:50Speaker 1: he is a god sovereign and control and his word
- 21:54Speaker 1: is his word. Amen. Sister Joanne said, I pray every
- 21:57Speaker 1: day that God gives me another to wake up. I
- 22:01Speaker 1: pray for my family every day to watch over them
- 22:04Speaker 1: and guide them and keep them safe at all times.
- 22:07Speaker 1: God is good. Yes, God is so good. I do
- 22:11Speaker 1: the same thing. There is nothing that I could do
- 22:14Speaker 1: physically sometimes to protect my family. But in the spirit
- 22:19Speaker 1: I set forth arkwron angels, minister angels, warring angels to
- 22:22Speaker 1: annihilate the tactics of the enemy over my whole family,
- 22:25Speaker 1: from the youngest family members to the oldest and everybody
- 22:27Speaker 1: in between. A. Men, we are war in the spirit,
- 22:31Speaker 1: and we win the war and man. According to the
- 22:34Speaker 1: scriptures and who God is in our lives, he who
- 22:38Speaker 1: is led by the Spirit are sons of God. Amen. Amen.
- 22:43Speaker 1: The Holy Spirit gives us a God. He is our God.
- 22:49Speaker 1: He guides us in our prayers. He helps us to
- 22:52Speaker 1: know how to pray for others. We read that in
- 22:55Speaker 1: Roman chapter eight, twenty six and twenty seven, So we
- 22:57Speaker 1: can trust that Holy Spirit is interceding alongside us. Amen.
- 23:03Speaker 1: We're never alone when we're praying. You might be in
- 23:06Speaker 1: your prayer closet all alone physically, but you know that
- 23:10Speaker 1: you're not alone. You know Holy Spirit is in succeeding.
- 23:13Speaker 1: You know Jesus is interceding on our behalf. You know
- 23:15Speaker 1: the Father is hearing. You know this angelic host all
- 23:19Speaker 1: around you. You go and confidently pray in your prayer closet.
- 23:22Speaker 1: You're led by the Spirit, Holy Spirit God. Amen, and
- 23:25Speaker 1: we're interceding. We're going in for someone else, Amen, for
- 23:32Speaker 1: another family, for another family member, for an enemy that
- 23:35Speaker 1: needs Jesus. Amen. We are, you know, just putting it
- 23:40Speaker 1: out there and relying and trusting on God's perfect will
- 23:43Speaker 1: and plan for others. And while you're doing that, you
- 23:46Speaker 1: know you're not alone. We're being led by Holy Spirit,
- 23:49Speaker 1: God number three. Trusting God's will. We spoke about that. Amen.
- 23:54Speaker 1: When you pray and you're intercede, you're trusting the perfect
- 23:57Speaker 1: will of God over your life, in your life and
- 24:00Speaker 1: for others' lives. Amen. I might not know exactly what
- 24:05Speaker 1: I need to be praying for for you, Amen, but
- 24:07Speaker 1: God knows exactly what needs to be prayed for for you.
- 24:11Speaker 1: So if I don't have any words, I trust our
- 24:13Speaker 1: Holy Spirit all right. And sometimes sometimes, at least in
- 24:17Speaker 1: my experience, he has spoken a word through me that
- 24:21Speaker 1: was an on time word for that person that I
- 24:23Speaker 1: didn't even know about. Amen. Sometimes they'll use words. But
- 24:27Speaker 1: the Spirit of God knows the heart of every single person.
- 24:31Speaker 1: The Spirit of God knows the spirit, our spirit. The
- 24:33Speaker 1: Spirit of God knows our intentions, our mindset, what we think,
- 24:37Speaker 1: knows our heart knows our desires. Amen. And he speaks
- 24:41Speaker 1: and prays and inter ses accordingly to every single individual situation.
- 24:45Speaker 1: There is absolutely no way we could lose Amen by
- 24:49Speaker 1: praying for someone else. No way. Yes, the spirit of discernment,
- 24:53Speaker 1: Yes we have that too. We live not by might
- 24:56Speaker 1: or power, but by the spirit. And when we live
- 24:59Speaker 1: by the spirit, Amen, or we experience them might empower
- 25:02Speaker 1: of God. Amen. But we don't have to go and
- 25:05Speaker 1: break down doors all the time, right, And we don't
- 25:07Speaker 1: have to be the warrior spirit all the time. We
- 25:11Speaker 1: allow God to speak, We allow God to move and
- 25:14Speaker 1: have his way in every situation that we're facing. Man
- 25:17Speaker 1: Well says it is important to be specific when we
- 25:19Speaker 1: pray to God, absolutely even though God knows, but He
- 25:23Speaker 1: wants us to know a man what we're praying about,
- 25:26Speaker 1: so that way, when we see the results and the
- 25:28Speaker 1: response of God, we can pinpoint exactly on what's going
- 25:32Speaker 1: on in our prayer life. We trust that God knows
- 25:35Speaker 1: what's best for every single person, including us, but we're
- 25:38Speaker 1: talking about others. We're interceding on behalf of others that
- 25:41Speaker 1: need prayer. And lastly, let's pray with love. Intercession when
- 25:45Speaker 1: we're intercede is an act of love. We are called
- 25:49Speaker 1: to love one another, pray for others. It's a prow
- 25:54Speaker 1: way to express our love. A prayer life helps our
- 25:59Speaker 1: well be It helps out spiritual growth and from them
- 26:03Speaker 1: to experience God's love and grace in their lives. And
- 26:08Speaker 1: we have a part of that. That's amazing. Intercession. It's
- 26:12Speaker 1: not about trying to change God's mind, but trusting in
- 26:16Speaker 1: his perfect plan. Amen for your life. So Romans chapter eight,
- 26:20Speaker 1: read the whole chapter for yourself. Amen, I hope you
- 26:22Speaker 1: are blessed. I hope you get what I'm saying. Amen.
- 26:24Speaker 1: Let's interestee you continue to pray for me and my family.
- 26:26Speaker 1: I'll continue to pray for you and your family. So
- 26:29Speaker 1: God bless you all. God keep you all, and remember
- 26:32Speaker 1: always that God is good. Peace.
