Welcome, Warriors! Today, we’re diving deep into the heart of intercession, guided by Ezekiel 22:30, where God searches for someone to stand in the breach—a call to spiritual action that’s as urgent today as ever.

Our springboard for today’s discussion is: Ezekiel 22:30 (ESV): "And I sought for a man among them who should build up the wall and stand in the breach before me for the land, that I should not destroy it, but I found none."

This verse calls us to be the ones who stand in the gap, who pray on behalf of the land and the people.

Understanding Intercession:

* Biblical Foundation: Intercessory prayer is a powerful ministry entrusted to us. It involves direct dialogue with God, pleading on behalf of others, just as Christ intercedes for us at the right hand of the Father.

* Reflecting Jesus’ Mediator Role: Just as Jesus mediates our relationship with the Father, we are called to be mediators through prayer. Your prayers can bridge gaps and mend what is broken.

Instructions for Embracing Intercession:

* Identify the Gaps: Look around you—where is healing needed? Where is restoration required? Your calling might be closer than you think.

* Commit to Regular Prayer: Set a time each day to pray specifically for these needs. Be disciplined in your approach to intercession as your prayers lay the groundwork for God’s intervention.

* Be Moved by Compassion: Let the love of Christ compel you. Feel the weight of the needs around you and let that drive you to earnest, fervent prayer.

Conclusion

Embrace your role as an intercessor. It’s a high calling that holds power to change lives, heal lands, and turn hearts back to God.

A Question of the Day: What specific issue or group of people will you commit to intercede for this week?

Growth Challenge: Challenge yourself to intercede daily for a week, focusing on one issue you feel particularly called to. Note any changes or insights you gain during this time.

Let’s Pray: Father, thank You for entrusting us with the ministry of intercession. Ignite in us a passion to stand in the gap, to build up the wall, and to pray with conviction and hope. Teach us to pray with the urgency and compassion that reflects Your heart. Amen.

Warriors, as we close today, remember your prayers have divine strength. Each time you intercede, you are acting on behalf of heaven itself. Let’s carry this responsibility with the honor and earnestness it deserves. Let’s get to work.
