HOW INTERCEDE

HOW INTERCEDE 

is essential that the glory of God is the end of our intercession because the main goal of Satan is to prevent glorifying God. Therefore, if we have as our primary goal the glorification of God and commit our whole soul and being the movement of intercessory prayer, God will manifest.  Prayer must be offered in faith and according to the will of God: "And this is the confidence that we have before him: that if we ask anything according to his will, he hears us. And if we know that he hears us in whatever we ask, we know that we have what we asked of him "(1 John 5: 14-15).

PRINCIPLES FOR EFFECTIVE INTERCESSION 

Here are some principles of effective intercession drawn from the foregoing Scriptures:

1. Praise God for the privilege of cooperating with Him in the affairs of men through prayer.

2. Make sure your heart is clean before God had any sin unconfessed (Psalm 66:28; 29: 23-24).

3. Recognize that you really can not pray without the guidance of the Holy Spirit (Romans 8:26).

4. Deal aggressively with the enemy. Among against him in the all-powerful name of the Lord Jesus Christ and with the "sword of the Spirit" - the Word of God (James 4: 7).

5. Wait before God in silent expectancy, listening for His direction (Psalm 62: 5; Micah 7: 7; Psalm 81: 11-13).

6. In obedience and faith, utter what God brings to your mind, believing (John 10:27). Follow the direction asking God, hoping that He will give you. He wants to do (Psalm 32: 8).

7. If possible, have your Bible with you should God want to give you direction or confirmation from it (Psalms 119: 10-15).

8. When God ceases to bring things to your mind to pray, praising and thanking finish what He has done, reminding yourself of Romans 11:36, "For from him and through him and to him are all things. Let the glory be his for centuries. Amen".

WHAT TO INTERCEDE Study the following Biblical references which reveal what you should intercede:

-The Peace of Jerusalem: Psalms 122: 6.

- Workers in the harvest: Matthew 9:38; Luke 10: 2.

- That you do not enter into temptation: Luke 22: 40-46.

- For those who mistreat you (your enemies): Luke 6:28.  - The sick: James 5:14.

-One For another (bearing each others burdens): James 5:16 (It is sin stop praying for others: 1 Samuel 12:23). –

-for All men, kings and those in authority: 1 Timothy 2: 1-4.

-for Daily needs: Matthew 6:11.  -for Wisdom: James 1: 5. -for Healing: James 5: 14-15.

-for Forgiveness: Matthew 6:12.   -for The will of God and for the Kingdom to be established: Matthew 6:10.

 - For the relief of affliction: James 5:13.

God answers prayer according to His will and His will is revealed in the promises recorded in His Word. When you ask not based on these promises your prayer is not answered. "Therefore, do not be like them, for your Father knows what you need before you ask Him" ​​(Matthew 6: 8). "If you ask anything in my name, I will do it" (John 14:14).

Christ intercessor

Christ intercessor
Our Lord made a sacrifice for us, introduced himself to the Father, to make atonement for the church (Hebrews 9:24). Jesus is from the beginning to the end of the age of the Gospel being the Great High Priest and Advocate of his people. This makes it possible no longer be strangers to God, but "accepted in the Beloved" by the Father (Ephesians 1: 6).
Hebrews 7:22 that Jesus has become the guarantee [j] of a better covenant. 23 The former priests were more numerous because death prevented them from continuing, 24 but He holds His priesthood [k] since endures forever. 25 Wherefore He is able also to save forever [l] that through Him they approach God, since He always lives to intercede for them.
26 For it we had such a high priest, holy, innocent, undefiled, separate from sinners and exalted above the heavens, 27 do not need, like those high priests, to offer sacrifices daily, first for his own sins and then for the sins of the people; for this he did once for all when he offered himself. 28 For the law appoints as high priests who are weak, but the word of the oath, which came after the law, appoints a Son, made perfect forever.

Now we are before God and as members of the body of Christ, we ask for His help and guidance (Romans 5: 1,2). We realize that we are not before God on our own merit, "Jesus said, I am the way and the truth and the life; No one comes to the Father but by me "(John 14: 6). First we are accepted, then our daily devotion to justice and our path to holiness unfolds. Because we recognize Jesus as our advocate so that we can reach the throne of grace. Our Lord continues to offer and applying his sacrifice until reaching perfection have no more need for it. That sacrifice and merit, will never be forgotten.
 Romans 8: 27 And he who searches the hearts knows what the mind [a] the Spirit, because He intercedes for the saints according to the will of God.

Christ, our lawyer
1 John 2: 1 My little children, I write these things so that you may not sin. And if anyone sins, Advocate [a] we have with the Father, Jesus Christ the righteous.
Since only what is perfect could be acceptable to God, our acceptance is under the coverage of Christ in the robe of his righteousness, his perfection is imputed to us. He saves us from the sins of our earthly life and also covers the spots that are the result of the imperfections of our human body (Isaiah 61:10). Through this cloak of justification we can approach God through the righteousness of our Savior, have the privilege of knowing him and call him Father.
Intercessory Prayer What is it?
Intercessory prayer is a prayer made in favor of another. An intercessor is one who takes the place of another or pleads for another case. A study of the Bible defines intercession as "holy persevering prayer, believer and why one intercedes with God for another or others who desperately need God's intervention."

Tomorrow may be too late!

Tomorrow may be too late!

 "... Then Pharaoh summoned Moses and Aaron, and said Ruéguenle the Lord to remove the frogs from me and my people, and I will let the people go to offer sacrifices to him. Moses replied: Tell me when you want to pray to the Lord for you and your officials and your people. The frogs will remain only in the Nile, and you and your houses will be rid of them. Pharaoh replied tomorrow. Moses said this would be done, and know that there is no god like the Lord, our God ... "Exodus 8: 8-10

Frogs of our lives: * Financial problems * Family Problems * Health problems Disobedience * * * Anguish * Depression Fears

We have considered this truth ever: * If tomorrow never comes ... * If I knew that today is the last time I'll see you sleep, I would hug strong and pray to the Lord to be the guardian of your soul. * If I knew that this is the last time I see you walk out this door ,. * If I knew that this is the last time I'll hear your voice, record every one of your words * If I knew that these are the last minutes I'll see you, say I love you,

The Bible and life clearly teach that tomorrow is not guaranteed to anyone, young or old. Today may be the last time you see those you love, your loved ones. So do not wait, do it today, because if tomorrow never comes. Our lives revolves around decisions that should be taken today, why we should wait until tomorrow? GOD WANTS YOU LIVE TODAY

Some reasons why we prefer to wait until tomorrow:                                   * Indecision: James 1: 8 * Fear: Proverbs 29:25 * Pride: * Sloth

You and I can live a full life with God if:                                                           

1. We recognize that we need His help.                                                    

Then Pharaoh summoned Moses and Aaron, and said Ruéguenle the Lord to remove the frogs from me and my people, Exodus 8: 8

* We need to recognize the problem. If we look at the history of Pharaoh found that indeed he had a problem really was needed, were thousands of frogs around his bed, FROGS FROGS everywhere. Pharaoh was seeing really have a problem.        Jesus told a story of a young man who will one day be revealed, I wanted to enjoy life, wanted to live the crazy life; his father gave him what belonged to him and he went and spent it all. The story goes that he because of his term need to work taking care of the pigs, but was both his need that he was looking forward to eating the food of the pigs.

Now came a time when this young man recognized the situation I was living. Luke 15:17 "Then, coming to himself, said: 'How many of my father's workers have food to spare, but I perish with hunger" Young said am I doing here, I passed by this need and the my father's house there so much. We show that sometimes our mind, our pride, our ego will not let us see the reality of our situation, fear of what people will say let us not recognize the situation and recognize that we have a problem.

2. We are determined to change today

And Pharaoh called Moses and Aaron, and said, "Pray to the Lord to remove the frogs from me and my people, and I will let your people go to offer sacrifices to the Lord."                                                          

a.We must be determined to get out of trouble. If we notice well the words of Pharaoh, he was determined to end the situation he was living, I'm tired Same as then returned to the same, as many do today they say will change but do not                                                               

       b. We must now crave. "Rising up, he went to his father. When he was still far off, his father saw him and had compassion, and ran, and fell on his neck and kissed him. "Luke 15:20 We see this young man really change his life yearning, longing out of the situation that he was, he was (immediately) to the house of his father and asked for forgiveness, and said, I want to change today, now, this is the time, I do not expect more.

3. If we trust in His Power.    It is not me is the Lord. We must be certain that the struggle we have, we must be sure that the victory will get in the midst of difficult times is not by my own strength, but it is God alone can give us victory against frogs attack our lives, do not let us move forward, do not let us rest, do not let us live a full life with God, the one who can help us is our Creator, our MAKER. We must learn to trust his power, his love, his mercy, we must learn to rest in Him. And no matter how big it is, no matter how difficult it may seem, God can and will give us victory because his desire is to live a full life with Him all the time.

Tomorrow is Too Late

HE DID IT ALL FOR ME

HE DID IT ALL FOR ME I Peter 2:24 “He himself bore our sins” in his body on the cross, so that we might die to sins and live for righteousness;

How I can not think of a thing so personal as sin and salvation. When the Bible says, "For all have sinned", I am persuaded to think, "all but me". And when the Word says, "There is none righteous, no not one", I want to add, "except me". When God speaks and says, "There is not a just man upon the earth". I want to say, "How about me?" I am righteous and sinless and others that do not mean me. Jn. 3:16 ... "all but me?"

I-HE CAME INTO A SINNER’S WORLD.
A. This is a sinner’s world and a world of sinners. It is a world of pain and grief, of disease, depravation, war and starvation. It is a world torn by storm, earthquake, and eruption, populated by men torn by crime, war, lies and corruption.
b. Yes, there is concern in heaven for the plight of sinful men. For John 3:16 is true, God does love AND  God cares -- Matt. 10:29-31

II. HE LIVED THE SINNER’S LIFE.
A. Not a sinner’s life, but the life of ordinary men or the ordinary life of men. With his hands he labored in the carpenter’s shop; he attended weddings1. He knew the heart rending pain that accompanies a funeral. He ate, he drank, he slept. He sailed in a boat with his fishermen friends; he sat weary at the well and was hungry in the sharp morning air.
2. He was familiar with all the things you and I are familiar with. You and I face temptation to sin but he was face to face with the master of sin after he had been alone, neither eating or drinking, for 40 days.

III. HE SYMPATHIZED WITH SINNER’S GRIEFS.
A. Our Saviour knows the feeling of pain, of the flesh, in the spirit, and of the heart. He knows disappointment as when one is rejected.
1. Rich young ruler. Peter’s denial. Judas betrayal. His rejection by the people before Pilate.
2. He knows the pain of not being believed.

IV. HE DIED THE SINNER’S DEATH.
A. He was wounded for our transgressions. He had no sin, he was not guilty of any crime either before men or God.
1. He was treated as the scapegoat, the outcast leper, the sin offering of the whole human family.
2. The iniquities of us all met in Him.

3. He stood as our substitute, sacrifice and satisfaction. All the guilt, and curse and penalty of God’s broken Law borne up and exhausted in his suffering body.
a. Isaiah. 53:3-5 “by his wounds you have been healed.”
b. II Cor. 5:21
c. Rejected by His own father -- "My God, My God, why hast thou forsaken me?"
B. He didn’t have to. The only law driving him to take my place and suffer for my sins was his own Law of Love.
1. (Rom. 5:8) -- "But God commendeth his love toward us, in that, while we were yet sinners, Christ died for us."

V. HE IS PREPARING THE SINNER’S HOME.
A. "I go to prepare a place for you." FOR ME! FOR YOU!! For an old sinner like me He is preparing heaven’s best.

2. And what of the wedding dinner, of lamb...the old saints,...the family circle.

If you are a lost sinner than it is my joy to tell you the good new. God loves you. Jesus died for you. He suffered the agony of the cross because of his love for you. Yes, he did it all for you.
