Dwelling in the inner sanctum of God!

“Now I rejoice in what I am suffering for you, and I fill up in my flesh what is still lacking in regard to Christ’s afflictions, for the sake of his body, which is the church.” Colossians 1:24

This narrative is about the intercession of God to bring down strongholds and set people free from the bondage of sin.

Intercession started with the death of Jesus on the Cross and continues today through the work of the Holy Spirit in the lives of believers.

Intercession is a vicarious identification with Jesus about sin. You unconsciously experience the actions of Jesus fighting off darkness in our world. It is agonizing work to be an intercessor. 

You come into the inner sanctum through the blood of Jesus. The credentials of an intercessor are humility, a contrite heart, and understanding your unworthiness before God.

Intercession in a believer begins and ends with God. Jesus chooses those who have laid down their lives for Him to participate in this cataclysmic work.

Intercession is the agenda of God dealing with sin. It might be for an individual, an organization or a nation. 

Intercession is allowing the Holy Spirit working inside you to make groanings to deep to understand to bring down strongholds of evil. 

Intercession is living in a different world. You are participating in a war between light and darkness.

Forget about trying to understand intercession or how God works to bring down strongholds. 

You are like a bystander as God does His mighty work. He may give you some glimpses of what He is doing but most of this work is hidden from your eyes.

Intercession is how God builds His church through the work of the Cross. 

Intercession is the action of the Cross laboring in the lives of believers. 

Intercession is an expression of the unconditional love of God for those in bondage to sin. 

Intercession is a high calling to do My work with all the glory coming to the Son of God!
