"THE ART OF PRAYER" - DAY 8: (SEPTEMBER 2016 - A MONTH OF BOOK REVIEW)

DAY 8, CHAPTER 8 – KNOWING GOD’S LOVE

To intercede effectively, you must know the great love God has for all humanity. Today being the eight day of our review, “Knowing God’s Love” takes the center stage of our studying and review. Enjoy as we review together.


Ephesians 3:19… And to know the love of Christ, which passeth knowledge, that ye might be filled with all the fullness of God.  

Since the love of God is in us and the love of God has been shed abroad in our hearts, we are to be kind like God is kind – to the unthankful and to the evil. – Uhmm that’s deep.

Jesus purchased a gift of salvation for anyone who would accept it (Eph 2:8, Rev 17:17). God commands all men everywhere to repent (Act 17:30). His hand of mercy is extended to all mankind.

Therefore, our intercession for all men is not so much for God to extend His mercy. This He has already done through Jesus.

Our intercession is mainly to break the bondage that the devil has over men. The devil has blinded men (2 Cor 4: 3, 4), we are to loose the sinner from the blindness that he may see the Light.

2 Corinthians 4: 3, 4 – But if our gospel be hid, it is hid to them that are lost: In whom the god of this world hath blinded the minds of the which believe not, lest the light of the glorious gospel of Christ, who is the image of God should shine unto them…

This is a call to us as believers to center our intercession in saving the lost that God had died for.


Let’s review further this chapter to understand what it meant in knowing God’s love.
