What do you do when someone comes up to you and ask you to keep them lifted in prayer?
You stop everything you are doing, and Pray Now!
You do this because life happens! You do this because you will forget. You do this because something about the way you live has caused this person to humble themselves; and come to you, and ask you to intercede on their behalf. You do this because this is the will of the Father for you in that moment.
So from this point forward, I beg you beloved, to never take another request for prayer lightly. For the person who has asked you to pray believes in their heart of hearts, that you are truly a friend of God; and as His friend you not only have direct access, but you have His ear! Now if that's not something to shout about I don't know what is.
I know, you don't know how to pray; you're not good at praying in public. Beloved do not believe this lie. For the same power that raised Jesus from the dead resides in you. And as a result of the power within you, you can boldly speak life to a dead situation; you can put 1000 to flight; and you can change the very atmosphere by your mere presence.
And this is why it is so important not to allow the enemy to steal this opportunity.
Don't worry about needing to know what the need is. Simply trust God! Believe that He will give you both the strength and the words to pray.
So the next time someone ask you to keep them lifted in prayer, remember to: PRAY NOW! Amen
