. . . men always ought to pray and not lose heart.
—Luke 18:1 (KJV)
You cannot truly intercede through prayer if you do not believe in the reality of redemption. Instead, you will simply be turning intercession into useless sympathy for others, which will serve only to increase the contentment they have for remaining out of touch with God. True intercession involves bringing the person, or the circumstance that seems to be crashing in on you, before God, until you are changed by His attitude toward that person or circumstance.
When we pray on the basis of redemption, God creates something He can create in no other way than through intercessory prayer.
-- Oswald Chambers
Pray all the time.

God is searching for those who will be intercessors, for those
who can actually change the news to the glory of God,
change life’s situations, circumstances and people through their
fervent, upright prayers. The effectual fervent prayer of a
righteous man availeth much. James 5:16
Thanks for the call to prayer. jfs
