What if there was a key that made every prayer more effective--something that would bring all prayers into agreement with the heart of God every single time?This type of praying does exist, says bestselling author and prophetic leader James W. Goll, and it's called prophetic intercession. It is the humble act of holding the needs of people before God while leaning into God's heart for them. There is nothing mystical or elite about this kind of praying, and it's for the new Christian and the most seasoned prayer warrior. All you need is to learn to lean into your heavenly Father and pray what you see and hear in alignment with his heart, empowered by the Holy Spirit.God wants you to align your heart with his. He wants you to pray more effectively in these turbulent times, and he wants you to help usher in the fullness of his purposes on the earth. Are you ready?
Father God, I desire to cultivate a heart for Your brilliant presence. Consume me with Your Holy Spirit. Take control of my life and make me into a prophetic intercessor. Fill me and empower me once again. For Your Kingdom’s sake, put Your breaker anointing upon my life. I choose by God’s grace to be a doorkeeper of Your presence and a watchman on the walls for my family, city, and nation. Like Simeon and Anna, I want to see the purposes of God come to pass in my generation. Take possession of me, in Jesus’ great name. Amen and amen! *Copy from the book*
This book gave me scriptural insight on what it looks like to pray from Gods perspective and not a place of "why me?". It has challenged me to seek Gods Presence above all else so I may know what to pray as well as what to look for as I pray. Goll gives practical advice and at times guidelines on how to stay connected with God. It helps that there is a 21 day devotional at the end so now you can practice connecting with God and applying what you have read to your own life.
When we pray to God, we should pray with His will in mind. This book is a great tool for those that want to improve their prayer lives and understand God's heart.
Praying with God’s Heart by James Goll concentrates on prophetic intercession which is holding the needs of others before God. The book is divided into three parts: Part I Heart for Intercession and Prayer Passion, Part II Heart for the Prophetic and Divine Insights and Part III Heart for Prophetic Intercession. The book also includes a 21 day devotional guide. The first four chapters focus on understanding Intercessionary prayer as an expression of the heart of God whereas the later chapters concentrate on what it means to serve him and become a better prayer warrior. I think in times like these we all could become better prayer warriors and practice more daily Intercessionary prayers.
