“The Ever-Faithful Intercessor”
Ricci Wilson
7-18-22
This week, we will have corporate prayer on Wednesday but will take Thursday and Friday off to allow Mom and I, our staff, and you, the diligent intercessor some much needed rest. We will be back next week for both teaching and prayer!
I’d like to share a vision to encourage you in our fight for the pre-born citizens followed by a Word the Lord gave me to bless you for your faithfulness.
On 5/1/22 I saw the wall of Roe v Wade. It was very long and very thick. It reminded me of the Great Wall of China. The Intercessors were standing all along the wall with pickaxes, chipping away at it however, the principality that held it in place had license to be here and because of this, it kept the wall of Roe v Wade secured in place. Once our judicial system overturned this unconstitutional ruling, all the intercession from the last 50 years blew through the wall like an atomic blast and turned it to dust.
Remember, 2022 is the year of the Catalyst!
The intercessors rushed forward, full charge, to tackle abortion laws at the state level. I watched the miracles occur as legislation rolled out to protect life!
The Catalyst is the flipping of Roe v Wade. The intercessors must utilize the momentum that’s here and tackle the issue at the state levels in prayer!
I shared this a couple weeks ago. The Lord gave me Mark 9:14-29 and told me to replace the father in this story, with the “intercessors”. He told me to replace the son, with “nation.”
It really blessed me as I read through it, and I pray it will do the same for you:
Mark 9:14-29
14 And when He came to his disciples, he saw a great multitude about them, and the scribes questioning with them. 15 And straightway all the people, when they beheld him, were greatly amazed, and running to Him saluted Him. 16 And He asked the scribes, What question ye with them? 17 And one of the intercessors answered and said, Master, I have brought unto Thee my nation, which hath a dumb spirit; 18 and wheresoever he taketh the nation, he teareth the nation: and my nation foameth, and gnasheth with his teeth, and until there is almost nothing left of my nation: and I spake to thy disciples that they should cast him out; and they could not.
19 He answereth him, and saith, O faithless generation, how long shall I be with you? how long shall I suffer you? bring the nation unto Me. 20 And they brought the nation unto Him: and when the nation saw Him, straightway the spirit sought to tear the nation; and it fell on the ground, and wallowed foaming. 21 And He asked the intercessors, how long is it ago since this came unto the nation? And the intercessors said, Of a child. 22 And ofttimes it hath cast our nation into the fire, and into the waters, to destroy our nation: but if Thou canst do anything, have compassion on us, and help us.
23 Jesus said unto the intercessors, if thou canst believe, all things are possible to the intercessors who believeth. 24 And straightway the intercessors of the nation cried out, and said with tears, Lord, we believe; help thou, our unbelief.
25 When Jesus saw that the people came running together, he rebuked the foul spirit, saying unto the nation, thou dumb and deaf spirit, I charge thee, come out of this nation, and enter no more into their shores. 26 And the spirit cried, and rent the nation sore, and came out of it and the nation was as one dead; insomuch that many said, the nation is dead. 27 But Jesus took the nation by the hand and lifted it up; and it arose.
This is where we are my friends… there is chaos, there are battles, and the world thinks our nation is dead. However, the Lord has come, He is going to raise it up, and it will serve His will and His purposes in the days ahead!
28 And when he (Jesus) was come into the house, his disciples asked him privately, Why could not we cast him out? 29 And He said unto them, this kind can come forth by nothing, but by prayer and fasting.
Is this not what the intercessor does…? We pray, we fast, we stand in the gap, until we see the complete victory come forth!
The father in this event was blessed to have his son back and surely had the privilege to watch his son grow and live the life God created him to live. He likely had a family and shared the wonderful testimony of what Christ did for him with his children, grandchildren and even his great-grandchildren.
We, the intercessors, will have the privilege to do the same. Hold on my friends, victory is closer than we realize. God is shaking and exposing the corruption in greater measure than most thought was even necessary. However, in the year of the catalyst, let us align ourselves with His plans and purposes so that on the other side of this battle, we are celebrating the victory and singing His praises to our children and grandchildren!
Blessings & love,
