(Part I)
THE GIFT OF INTERCESSION
But rather than turn to hopelessness when confronted by discouragement, we can turn to intercession. By going to God, we gain truth. We gain truth about the situation. We may see spiritual realities and have a much better and informed perspective about the situation at hand and the realities of the world. Out of our time with God, our calling will be informed. We will see how God is calling us into the “hell of people’s lives.â€
And when we are with God, God will empower us with wisdom (James 1.5). And he will equip us with what we need to enter into the realities of our world and to confront whatever the situation may be.
I believe we have a choice. We have a choice to respond by interceding and going before God or we can dwell in our hopelessness. Our response to discouragement will inevitably shape our calling and sense of mission.
