Intercessory prayer is quite different from regular daily prayer, except that daily prayer qualifies you for intercessory prayer.
Intercessory prayer is far more difficult.
At stake is the destiny of individuals and institutions and nations. God has designated prayer as the strategic weapon in this war and Satan is determined that Christians NOT fulfill the last Great Command of Christ to take the Good News of Life to all the peoples of the world . He vehemently sabotages, assaults, opposes, obstructs, undermines, impedes and thwarts with all of his diabolic power, every effort to expand God's Kingdom. Calvin, Luther, Wesley, and other great leaders throughout history have urged believers to recognize our state of war. The work of IICS has certainly not been immune to the assaults of spiritual warfare .
