I was taken up into the heavens and as I interceded over the
nation of Iraq and those being persecuted. My heart cried out for the
injustices being done against the believers and my heart was hurting for those who know not what they are doing. I began to
hear the weeping of heaven and interceding and as our intercessions became one I came to
this place where I was flying below all of what appeared to be post office
boxes positioned over the nations of the world. I looked down and around my
neck was a chain with a bunch of keys, but what struck me was that they were
modern keys, not pretty old skeleton keys which are usually present in my
visions. I reached down and found the
key that opened the box that was for the box over the country of Iraq. I opened it and out
poured the pent up prayers and intercessions of the saints of what I felt were
centuries. As they were released I felt a release in the Spirit and saw an
outpouring of comfort and peace fall upon the believers. There was a new
resolve and they felt as if they were no longer alone, they felt the power of
the prayers of their ancestors and those who have faithfully prayed into that
region of the world. It was a powerful
moment of intercession.
As I thought and talked with the Jesus about
the encounter over the next few days I was kept coming back to the part about
the keys and the PO boxes. I was intrigued at the modern state of both and the
Lord began to speak to me about this generation of intercessors. It was what I
like to call a “For such a time as this” moment. He said to me, “there are these
deposit boxes (for that is what they were) all over nations, people groups,
individuals, and they hold the prayers, promises, intercessions, tears,
prophetic words, declarations that have been spoken and are waiting to be
released. The time is coming and is even upon us for the opening of many of
these deposit boxes and I am calling upon a new generation of intercessors that
are willing to join with the intercession of heaven in declaring justice and a
release. I am looking for servants who are willing to be vessels of
release while acknowledging that they are merely in the right place at the
right time in history to see the culmination of the release of the toil of
thousands and millions before them.” The
Lord is calling this generation back to a place of radical intercession, it is
a key to Justice that the church is missing and a power the world has not seen
the likes of yet. Who is in?
