Receiving Revelation from the Glory Realm
Because intercessory prayer is a core value of Higher Life Ministries, this article is to introduce you to a dimension of prayer that may be new to you. Prayer is probably one of the most common practices found among believers in Jesus Christ. There are various reasons why people pray. There are those who pray out of routine whereby they are intentional in communing with the Lord on a consistent basis. There are those who pray only during crisis, asking the Lord to intervene in circumstances that are out of their control. There are those who pray crafted prayers, written by someone who easily puts into words what someone else cannot vocalize. There is a deeper experience in prayer that is called intercession. The posture of one who is interceding is that of one who is standing in the gap on behalf of another person, or another situation outside of their personal realm. It is allowing the burden of another to become their personal burden, to stand in the gap until the will of God is established.
Intercession reflects the heart of Jesus for His people as our Mediator, Reconciler, Intercessor. His ministry of intercession is still operating today on our behalf.
Hebrews 7:25 (NAS) – Therefore He is also able to save forever those who come to God through Him, since He always lives to make intercession for them.
Because of relationship with Christ, believers are invited into the same ministry of intercession. It is designed to become a way of life. It is less about personal preferences and more about His presence. It is less about what we gain and more about what He desires to accomplish through us.
It is a “now” time for all of God’s people to move up to higher spiritual ground where we can find fresh anointing and revelation from God’s heavenly realm. God’s people need not fear during these challenging times, but there is the need to come along side one another to pray for and to encourage one another. At the same time, we need to gain revelation from God Himself to overcome current challenges.
It is time for God’s people to take their God appointed place in the end time harvest. The keys of prophetic intercession and sustained prayer support can help all triumph in respective endeavors. Wisdom and revelation are needed from on high – from the glory realm- to overcome. God is always speaking and He wants to speak to His people personally, relaying strategies to help see through the challenges of life.
Here are just some benefits of having an intentional role in intercession:
● Maintain the peace of God while facing life’s challenges
● Maintain confidence in decisions that are made
● Increase creativity, productivity, and efficiency
● Receive spiritual insight from God’s divine dimension
● Find more joy in your Kingdom mission
● Increase faith to believe for God’s intervention
● Resolve issues that life brings
Galatians 6:2 (NIV) – Carry each other’s burdens, and in this way you will fulfill the law of Christ.
