Zipporah and I woke up thinking it was going to be a normal day.
We did some cleaning and were getting rid of some things that God told us He didn't like.
We got rid of the cartoons and worldly movies and were outside the house burning them when the Lord Jesus Christ instructed us to start praying there and then.
He told us to pray and destroy all the things that satan had done to us because of the worldly things we used to use like unholy clothes,movies etc.
We planned to have breakfast just after praying,the time was 9 in the morning.
When we were done with the prayer point God had given us,we thought we could go but the Lord Jesus Christ told us to start praying for the salvation of our family.
Then He said to pray for the salvation of our friends and people we know.
By this time we were tired and the sun was coming out very harsh at the place we were praying from.
We were praying from outside the house and God told us not to move but to continue praying right were we where.
We began to pray general prayers so that we would finish fast.
We would pray,"Lord please we pray for the salvation of all our friends,all our family,everyone."
And Jesus said,"mention every person's name and pray for them with all your heart.Pray for each person seriously.Even people you just see on TV, pray for them,mention names.This is serious,people are going to hell."
It was a hot summer day and there was no shade where we were praying from,it was just an open space under the hot sun.We were getting tired and hungry and thirsty.
Our house was in a wire fence and people passing by Could see us and wonder when they saw us praying were we where.
But Jesus didn't care about any of these things,He didn't care about how tired or hungry or thirsty we were.Only one thing moved his heart;the cry of perishing souls.That was His heart beat,His desire,for us to fervently intercede for them despite any physical discomfort,that was more important.
It had just been days after He showed me and Zipporah hell for the very first time.
And now the Lord said to us,Pray for people.listen……"
Immediately He said that,We could again hear people screaming in hell,like the sound of mighty ocean waves,the cry of despair.
And we began to pray,mentioning people's names.
Satan didn't like that we were interceding and sent demons to tempt us to stop by showing us mirages of very cold water and trying to entice us to just stop and sleep and get some rest.
At one point I felt so exhausted like I couldn't go on any more.
At that very moment,I felt someone touch my back in encouragement,then I saw that it was Jesus,then He said,"pray a little more."
Immediately He touched me,I was strong again and continued praying.
The sun went down and the night came,we were still outside praying,Jesus said we still needed to pray for people.
Jesus was with us,sometimes we could see Him,other times we couldn't.
Other times He would just be standing near us,watching us,but what was important to Him was that we had to keep praying for people's salvation.
Till at 3 The next morning,We asked Jesus if we could go in the house and rest and he allowed us but he didn't allow us to eat,he said we would only break our fast in the morning,he had made us to fast for people's salvation,that's how important it is to Him.
Another day,It was Was an ordinary evening when the Lord Jesus Christ told us to pray.
Zipporah,my sister Lois,and I all started praying.
The Lord told us He wants christians to learn how to pray very fervently.
He told us to pray kneeling,with hands lifted up and we had to pray for the world and for ourselves and about alot of things.
We ended up not going to bed at all because the Lord made us to pray all night till morning with hands lifted up.
And He told us that He was showing us an example of how he wants Christians to be praying.That's how much he wants all of us to be praying!
To carry one another's burdens and fervently intercede for one another.
That's what the Lord wants.
God's heartbeat is Evangelism and intercession.
If we all do these two things with all our hearts,evangelising and praying for one another with all our hearts,mentioning names and declaring the areas where you want the person you are praying for to overcome etc,the church here on earth would be very victorius,we wouldn't be easy prey for the enemy.
Today in my prayer time,the Lord reminded me of these two times and told me this is what He wants,for us to take intercession seriously,so serious that we even fast and pray for other people,we even pray all night for each other.
The Lord also told me that right now satan is going to attack marriages,especially for people who are in ministry.
Evangelists,Pastors,and everyone preaching the truth,satan hates you so much and wants to attack your marriages so that you will be discouraged and fall.
That's what we must pray against.
Shalom.
