Prayer Closes the Gap

“And I searched for a man among them who should build up the wall and stand in the gap before Me for the land, that I should not destroy it; but I found no one.” Ezekiel 22:30

Are you regularly interceding for the needs of others? I surely pray that God would find me available to stand in the gap for not only my own loved ones but for the needs of the loved ones of others as well. I know that He heard the prayers of those who once stood in the gap for me when I either couldn’t or didn’t know how to pray for myself. I also know that He’s called His children to bear one another’s burdens and I pray that He will give me the strength and desire to do just that. There are those I encounter on a regular basis that are on the verge of being destroyed and the needs are many in these last days. Lord, I pray that You will strengthen me to stand in the gap.

It seems the prayer requests I’m hearing these days are getting more and more critical and I know the Lord has called us to pray and above all I know prayer can and does make a difference – prayer tears down Satan’s strongholds and closes the gap!
