Prayer Email archive: (10/03/2000) standing in the gap |
Hello prayer warriors,
1. Prayer note: standing in the gap [Ezekiel 22:30] And I sought for a man among them, that should make up the hedge, and stand in the gap before me for the land, that I should not destroy it: but I found none. We are familiar with this scripture because this scripture has been used to call in intercessors to stand in the gap and pray. I heard a tape by Chris Gabbriot and he does not believe that God was calling for intercessors to stand in the gap and make up the hedge. His reasoning was because two of the greatest intercessors were there at that time, Ezekiel and Jeremiah. What was missing and who was God looking for? The answer is in [Revelations 1:6] And hath made us kings and priests unto God ... The kings were missing. King Jehoiachin was carried captive to Babylon by Nebuchadnezzar [Ezekiel 1:3]. He was succeeded by Mattaniah (also known as Zedekiah) whom Nebuchadnezzar placed on the throne. The prophet Jeremiah was his counsellor, yet "he did evil in the sight of the Lord". When kings are not functioning properly in the kingdom of God, we have a missing link. Who is going to provide the provision and work together with the priests to fulfill the vision? We need to rise up to our calling. Kings are known as the "can-ones". I can succeed, I can conquer, I can excel with the grace of God! We have to conquer any strongholds in our mind that we can't do it and we have to conquer the spirit of mediocrity. We have to ask God to give us the kingly anointing to battle, to conquer, to plunder & bring in the finances into the kingdom of God, to stand in the gap & build that hedge for God. 2. New prayer requests: i. Sue, Ralph & Carmen -- debski Remember these 3 people & their families in your prayers. God chose to take their mothers home this week.

Proper Christ-like behaviour -- logan I am a new Christian & have realized a lot of my 'normal' behavioral characteristics are not postive for Christians. I am learning how to behave as a TRUE CHILD OF GOD & I would like prayer to guide me. I am reading the Bible daily & constantly praying to get understanding as a result. Please pray that I continue to grow as a Christian, not fall victim to known bad behavior, & be enlightened to others that I need to improve. Thank You very much!! http://mydevotion.com/logos/asp/viewpyrrep.asp?forumid=5&forumtype=2&topicid=419&table=prayer iii. Pray for full restoration to Christ -- guest Pray for God to restore me, that I may do the will of the Lord & win souls for Christ. I was out of the will of God for 10 years! I have since rededicated my life. However I am afraid that I have lost my gift of laying on hands. Pray that God will restore this gift back to me. Sometimes I feel so unworthy, so lonely. However I know that God has never left me or forsaken. http://mydevotion.com/logos/asp/viewpyrrep.asp?forumid=5&forumtype=2&topicid=420&table=prayer iv. Job -- guest Need a permanent job that I will have the rest of my working life. I am 50 & single. Just finished a 3 month temp job…one of many. Have not had a job lasting more than 6 month in over 5 years. I praise God that he supplies all my needs according to his riches in glory. I will praise His name through this test.
