Rejoice always, pray without ceasing,in everything give thanks;for this is the will of God in Christ Jesus for you.1Thessalonians 5: 16-18
The Spirit of the Lord God is upon Me,Because the Lord has anointed Me To preach good tidings to the poor;He has sent Me to heal the brokenhearted,To proclaim liberty to the captives,And the opening of the prison to those who are bound;Isaiah 61:1
In these days, we need to remember and rediscover the amazing privilege that is ours to be called to join with our Lord in His Royal Priesthood… and to actually be called by Him to enter into His mighty intercessions and purposes along with Him. It is our privilege to co-labour together with Him in His continual intercession, to plant the heavens and lay the foundations of the earth in prayer. To prepare for war and stand in battle in His strength, and to lay hold of His victory in Jesus name. We get to watch the enemy release spiritual captives and then see them become children of God. We get to see His gospel rescue the perishing in power and to see the church of our Lord Jesus Christ, rise up in holiness and surrender to His full and perfect will. He has promised to bless the believing prayers of His people as we believe and trust in Him, and pray together. He has made us a part of His Royal Priesthood.
