The title of this video teaching is "Let Go and Hold On: The Power of Intercessory Prayer," by Karen Wheaton.
Karen Wheaton is a seasoned Christian minister who founded and leads the youth ministry, The Ramp. She delivers the following impassioned message about the power of unrelenting faith and intercessory prayer. Karen is one of our favorites to listen to for preaching and encouragement.
Video Description: "In this powerful sermon, Karen Wheaton delivers a heartfelt message on the calling of an intercessor—those who stand between the darkness of the world and the door of God’s house, praying for the return of loved ones who’ve strayed from their faith. Sharing her personal journey of praying for her daughter, Lindsay, Karen unpacks the biblical story of the Shunammite woman (2 Kings 4) and reveals what it means to "let go physically but hold on spiritually." With vivid illustration and deep spiritual truth, this message is a call to keep praying, keep believing, and never give up."
Relevant Scripture: 2 Cor 5:18-21 (NLT) "And all of this is a gift from God, who brought us back to himself through Christ. And God has given us this task of reconciling people to him. For God was in Christ, reconciling the world to himself, no longer counting people’s sins against them. And he gave us this wonderful message of reconciliation. So we are Christ’s ambassadors; God is making his appeal through us. We speak for Christ when we plead, “Come back to God!” For God made Christ, who never sinned, to be the offering for our sin, so that we could be made right with God through Christ."
Our prayer for you is that you will step into your calling as an intercessor of God, learning how to pray for family members, your workplace, your city, and your nation. You are a watchman on the wall. Hold your ground, in Jesus' Name, Amen.
