Intercession

Does everyone really know what this means?!?!!? Well I sure don't, well didn't that is. This morning we had our first intercession, I suppose I should define what that is. I'll try to the best of my ability, well you get together with other people and have a prayer time about the nations around you, you sit quiet before the Lord and see what He leads you to pray about, and then you just start praying out loud about it. So we get together with this group and I'm the only DTS person in my group and the rest are staff. And we begin, and I'm like geez I don't have any idea what's going on. Needless to say it was a pretty interesting first time, I finally figured it out in the middle of doing it. But man when you haven't done something like it before and don't know what to expect it can take you by storm.
So before we got here Tash and I went online to figure out what our classroom leader was going to look like. We were fishing through these photos and pics, and finally found Libby. Well let's just say that in the pic Libby was a quite older lady with crazy hair. And so Tash and I just laughed to ourselves and were like great stuck with an older lady. Well we finally got to the YWAM base and walked in the front door and this lady says, ' welcome to YWAM, you guys must be Tasha and Dana.' And we're like 'yep.' 'Nice to meet you I'm Libby.' Let's just say she was NOT the lady we saw in the pic, she is like 24 and pretty cool. So yeah that was a fun surprise!!!!

    In Christian practice, intercessory prayer is the act of one person praying for or on behalf of another person or situation. The prayer intercedes on behalf of the subject, in the hope that God will answer the prayer accordingly.

    Yeah, the whole intercession thing can be a bit scary at first. I remember almost falling asleep quite often.
