i have some kind of intercession experience.
at 1st it was exciting. later
i find we are just repeating what the person is asking + amen. n that becomes very boring.
2ndly doing an intercession job is a lot of stress. u face all the unhappy things in life. nobody coming to u is happy.
the worst is those whose life is such a mess. they are in forever depression, troubles 1 after another. n no matter how u encourage them, lift them up in prayers. they just respond to u "i still need lots lots prayers" n they always tell u they can hardly live on.
another crazy thing is they totally have no faith in what they r asking u to pray. u pray for them already in the morning, in the afternoon they ask u to pray for it again. what can u do? n the next morning again, the next afternoon again, all for the same thing.
sometimes the person who prays for another also feel G-d is deaf. he prays for the same in the morning, then in the afternoon again. or after a few days pray for the exact same thing again. boring? hehe.
3rd problem, both parties, the person who asks for a prayer, n the person who prays for another, may have some serious problems (for example understanding of basic bible knowledge or lack a closer successful devotional life with the Master), or lack a rich and diverse experience in own life.
if intercession becomes such situation, u may easily lose interest in it.
what do u think?
