I’ve learned that intercession can be like peeling an onion. Men ought to always pray and not faint. God showed me once that one reason why we have to constantly be praying is to remove all the “maybe’s” if there is a problem. For years, we often say maybe it’s God teaching us a lesson, maybe it’s witchcraft, maybe it’s ancestral iniquity, maybe it’s a generational curse, maybe it’s demonic, maybe it’s words that have become stout against our destiny, maybe, maybe… The Lord showed me that if we keep praying days, weeks, months, and years, we can peel back the onions of maybe’s over time, and in the process, gain victory. Our lack of faith or weak faith causes us to lose ground that we have gained, because we often cancel our own prayers. This is why praying in tongues is essential, to redeem the time and escape the evil days. So we must also pray long in tongues in times of intercession. We have made many mistakes in our lives, and some of them seems irreversible. By the time we bring it before the Lord we are often beyond human help. By interceding long, God can begin His great work. This is how John G Lake got 100,000 people healed in prayer rooms, where once they prayed for a man with cancer everyday for 30 days, and he was healed.

The Importance of Intercessory prayer: Praying with like-minded people is comforting. The words of encouragement makes the giants in the land look like grasshoppers and it gives me strength to carry on.

The Benefits of Fasting: It allows me to get deeper revelations from the Word of God and I receive more dreams and internal visions. Fasting also quiets the voices from the enemy.
