“I have set watchmen upon thy walls, O Jerusalem, which shall never hold their peace day nor night: ye that make mention of the LORD, keep not silence,”
Isaiah 62:6 KJV
Isaiah prophesied the importance of intercession and says to Jerusalem that Yahweh has stationed intercessors on its walls who will never be silent, day or night. They are there to remind Yahweh and they take no rest. Jesus spoke a parable to the multitudes regarding this, that men ought always to pray, and not to faint. Likewise the Spirit also helps our infirmities: for we know not what we should pray for as we ought: but the Spirit itself makes intercession for us with groanings which cannot be uttered. Therefore we are to intercede continually to remind God of His promises. Like divine administrators, we remind God of His promises and appointments He must keep. Intercession for believers is fruitful when we have a relationship with God and not an empty ritual. Let’s talk to our God continuously so we bear much fruit. Amen!
