This book was written to help pray-ers and pastors establish a meaningful partnership. As we rebuild the spiritual walls of our cities, watchmen and gatekeepers (intercessors and pastors) must learn to work together in a meaningful partnership. Their respect for and effective communication with each other will enable the Church to regain her spiritual integrity, to glorify Christ and demolish the gates of hell.

More than a book on prayer

My husband and I are the "Prayer Leaders" in our church. My husband and then my pastor are in line to read your book. I have read many books in the past year (I'm a student at WLI in Colorado Springs) - Your book is at the top of the list of all of the books I've read (Jack Deere, C.P.Wagner, J.I. Packer, Bonner, Sheets, etc.) Maybe it's because God had a divine appt. with me in the pages of this book; I don't know, but I am telling everyone I know what an impact it has made on my walk with God, not only as an intercessor but as a child of God. Your chapter "Let the Healing Begin" spoke to me re: my broken relationship with my parents. God has been leading me down a path to reconciliation with them and with this chapter Holy Spirit led me at a fast pace much closer to the anticipated time. I was humbled and broken after realizing that I am the one required to pay the price of humility and maybe even humiliation. I look forward, even long to, literally washing my parent's feet. I feel that I am at the door of reconciliation now and God is going to give me the key any day to open it up and walk through. Two Sundays ago the Lord asked me: "why do you want to reconcile with them?" I answered, "Because they are my parents and I love them and want to be in fellowship with them." He asked me again, "why do you want to reconcile?" I answered, "because it is the Christian thing to do, and, because my entire family is disconnected and this will begin the reuniting" Once again, God asked and I said, "Oh, Lord, because I want to know you more." The Lord said to me, "Yes, now we can move forward and do what needs to be done." He wanted me to see that although my other answers were good and Biblical - it was my relationship with Him that had to be the number one priority for everything I do. And now I think I know what leads people like you and Chuck Pierce and many others into the battles you march into. I believe that knowing Him more is the result of each one. The victory is sweet and the souls that are saved are joy but knowing Him more is the cry of our hearts. This book is about knowing God and in knowing Him and being made complet in Him we can move into the right relationship with intercessors, pastors, and more.

Please Read This Book!

I was stunned to learn from a trusted prayer leader that the division between pastors and intercessors is worldwide. I thought it just existed in my city. That's why I bought the book. I have had quite a lot to learn to understand why the division exists and now see it largely as an issue of control, something the authors point out that God never gave away to either pastors or to intercessors. What an obvious place for the enemy to erect a wall, for we vitally need one another. Together, the power of the church will finally be released. This book is magnificent in its accessibility to a topic that has mystified me. I found it immensely practical. The authors' tenderness and humility show through on every page.

Extremely helpful

After reading the book you and your husband wrote on Intercessors and Pastors I had to write and thank you for the tremendous work the Holy Spirit did through you. From the first chapter to the last, it captivated my entire being until it was read from cover to cover. You answered so many questions that had come up and even covered many questions that my mind could not yet think, but felt.

In the few pages prior to the chapter, Understanding Your Intercessor, you mentioned that a church prayed over some names in the telephone directory and had amazing results. Is it possible to talk to the person that was in charge of that project? We would like to likewise have this exercise in faith at our church. Already it is easy to see how it would totally revolutionize every ministry, seeing God's might power through effective, fervent prayer.

It thrilled my heart to hear Pastor say last Wednesday, "I want our house to be known as a house of prayer." How God is using your book to help influence our ministry. Thank you for your love for God, your deep devotion to Him and for allowing Him to make you what you are in Christ.
