Passions Of an Intercessor

Introduction
Back to basics with prayer is your first giant step in spiritual growth and building a life relationship with God our Father. As a believer, we can read the bible from Genesis to Revelations, but if we do not have a life centered with prayer, Christianity is pointless. We can not deal with the challenges of life using man made weapons. Our weapons are not carnal, but mighty through the pulling down of strongholds; and this is done through prayer and Intercession.
Prayer is communication between a believer and God.
Intercession is entreaty in favor of another; or praying in favor of another person.
In the beginning, when God created Adam, He created him in the likeness of God. He also created Adam to have someone to communicate with. This is evidence that God wants to communicate with His children. Some of you may ask and wonder, who are the children of God or how do I become a child of God? I am glad you are asking this age old question In Romans 8:29 Paul writes; for those God foreknew He also predestined to be conformed to the likeness of His son, that He might be the firstborn among many brothers.
Foreknew simply means God knew all His children before we were born.
Predestined means God had already made up His mind about you and this is no accident that you are reading this book and seeking a closer relationship with God.
Back to basics with prayer is also an attempt to help the body of Christ understand how relationship with God is more important than status. We have become so spiritual and politically correct, that not many people that are new comers to the body of Christ are able to get off the ground floor spiritually. There is an amazingly enormous amount of Christians who do not know the basics of the bible or the simple bible stories I was taught as a child in the 1970’s and 1980’s. For example; The Ten Commandments, The Model Prayer, Jonah and
Whale, The Three Hebrew boys, David and Goliath, and the 23rd Psalm are just to name a few of the simple stories of the bible many tenured Christians learned in their childhood. Now that we are adults and are now reading and learning more about the theology of the Bible, we are under the assumption that everyone is on the same page.
This first edition of Passions of and Intercessor will help you recognize the need for prayer and hopefully give you a better understanding of the power and authority we have been given by God through prayer. I spoke to the Mountain is a subtitle given to me by God through personal experience and warfare. As a result of several situations in my life where I was standing in front of a mountain sized situation that I could not handle in my own strength, I found a scripture in Matthew 17:20-21. Jesus told the disciples, if they had faith the size of a grain of mustard seed, they could speak to the mountains in their life and nothing would be impossible for them. However, this kind comes only by prayer and fasting. In obedience to this scripture, I did just as Jesus advised the disciples. And without the assistance of a famous church leader, the Holy Spirit and I overcame many mountain sized situations in
my life. It is my desire to pass on to you what God has given me. As you read this short but powerful book, you will learn basic bible principles with the proper ingredients and prayer.
