Well, apparently God IS warning intercessors of a special danger to him right now so we have to take that into consideration. God's letting us know. We need to obey. M

Mary, we need to obey God's word and the Holy Spirit within us to uphold him in prayer today and tomorrow as always. Nothing else.

I'm not trying to be difficult, but we don't have to obey intercessors. We have to watch them critically, as compared with God's word given directly to US.

Mary, just to let you know, over the past three years I've become convinced that God calls people to intercerssion as a specific ministry, and while all prayer is intercession, I believe that some people are given a special giftedness to be able to hear and pray very specifically for concerns, particularly when God is about to do something very specific. I need to tell you that this comes from someone -- myself -- who was raised in a liberal United Methodist church, who came to Christ while in college, and attended a conservative Baptist church for most of my adult life. So, while some may consider "intercessory prayer" or "Intercessors" a bit suspect...well, I did too over three years ago. No longer.

In short, I believe in the ministry of intercession; I believe God has called together certain people to pray specifically for this country and for its leadership which allows them to pray effectively and very specifically, and I believe that collectively these intercessors have an access into the mind and will of God on these particular matters that should be heeded by the larger church.
