Someone once said the prospect of death wonderfully clarifies the mind. In following Jesus, the prospect of serious trouble or major opportunity wonderfully clarifies our prayers.
Routine intercession takes an edge of sharp urgency when major news hits, like the Haitian earthquake or - years ago - when the Iron Curtain came down and millions of people were allowed to hear the gospel of Jesus.
Everyone is hip to the fact that our nation is in trouble, but it is rare to find a person in the prayer movement deeply burdened by the spirit of God for the opportunities and challenges just around the corner.
