"The Lord looked and was displeased that there was no-one ............... He was appalled that there was no-one to intervene." - Is 59:15-16.

Christians face the same great challenge today as their predecessors in earlier times. They are challenged to "stand in the gap" (Ezekiel 22:30).

My observation is that perhaps as Christians, we are not interceding enough for our fellow brothers and sisters needing to be saved, or have been saved but are in bondage of various forms (remember when Abraham interceded for Lot?).

Are there Christians out there who can offer advice on how to be effective intercessors in our families and communities.

I would be very grateful for any helpful input please as I feel an urgent need in my life for this ministry.:help:

I think Christians are out there working... except in today's society, if you don't hear about it on the news then it is as if it didn't happen... however, I know for a fact that there are lots of workers out in the fields now. We still need more, but my generation is in trainning at the moment... and when we are finished trainning you will see a LOT more workers in the field.

Read the book Intercessory Prayer :)

I found God really do wonders around my family and my life when I started to actively "interceed" for them. :-D

Yes Shannonkish your right! our generation is in training but I believe our generation is going to turn around the world as we know it :)

Keep praying hard everyone. And dont be disappointed if someone isnt moved through your evangelism. Sometimes we just need to leave an imprint onto their lives and down the road they'll be back. I know because yesterday at fellowship, a friend of mine i havent seen for 3 years came once again to church. PTL!
