IN DEBT to the Believer and the Unbeliever
"Both to Greeks and to barbarians
(to the cultured and the uncultured), both to the wise and to the foolish,
I have an obligation to discharge and a duty to perform and a debt to pay."
Romans 1:14 (Amp

Prayer Is The Answer

Prayer is earth's invitation to heaven's intervention. The earth is desperate for heaven's intervention. The people of this earth are desperate for heaven's intervention, for us to take our place in prayer, to stand in the gap and call heaven down to earth, to call and establish God's kingdom here on earth as it is in heaven. Our families are desperate, our cities are desperate, our country is desperate, the whole world is desperate for us to take our place, to wake ourselves up and answer the call to prayer. "The whole earth groans for the manifestation of the sons of God". The earth is groaning. The people of this world are groaning for the manifestation of power, healing and deliverance of the sons and daughters of God, the manifestations that proves that God is real, that He is alive and that He truly loves them and cares about them and hears their cry.

Prayer is the answer.  Prayer turns God's eyes and ear to hear the one that is speaking. Prayer gets His attention. We have got to answer this call. We have got to respond to the desperation of this hour, but not is our own flesh and in our increased busyness that drains us of our time and energy and any ability and desire to meet with Him, but it must be by committing and prioritizing this time that we set aside for prayer and then going into that place knowing that we are doing kingdom business, knowing that we are the Father's partner and the world's answer and link to its desperate need in Jesus. We've got to stir ourselves up and take our place on the wall, let ourselves feel the needs of the people and draw upon our kingdom inheritance and power that is ours as sons and daughters of the King and Creator of this universe. We've got so much power that is available to us that we haven't tapped into. It's our kingdom inheritance, and it comes through the Holy Spirit that dwells within us, but we have to tap into it. We have to draw upon it in prayer and in faith. God's ready to do it. He's just looking and waiting for hungry and empty vessels to pour into, vessels that will meet Him and prioritize Him and His kingdom above all else.

I am feeling a stirring and a quickening in my spirit to compel people to prayer, to compel people to wake up and answer the call. We've got to do it. We've got to take our place and stand in the gap. The desperation is too great to ignore it and to remain in our slumber.

O God, help us. O God, come with a fresh deposit of Your Spirit into our lives. Come and birth this call for prayer into each one of us. Come and infuse us with Your love and compassion for this world and for all the souls that You gave Your life for. Come, Holy Spirit, and fall fresh on us. Come and bring us into our place of rest in You, into that place of intimacy and communion with You that You desire and we so desperately need. Come Holy Spirit, come. We call on You, we draw upon You, we draw upon Your kingdom. Come Holy Spirit, come.
