Hard Work by Cathy Vinson Wrestling in prayer is for the priest, and all believers are called into the priesthood. The high priest always stood between God and man, as did Jesus.
Prayer is a priestly duty.
A priest in prayer wrestles until he sees Jesus in that situation. He enters his closet burdened and exits knowing God and darkness have been brought together, and God has won. As they come, we are called to face them as priests. They exists in our opinions, our loved ones, organizational structures, etc. If we will take God and man into our prayer closet, grappling until we see the light of Christ's Lordship dawning though, we will have experienced something of His Lordship.
