"Utmost: Classic Readings and Prayers from Oswald Chambers".

True intercession involves bringing the person, or the circumstance that seems to be crashing in on you, before God, until you are changed by His attitude toward that person or circumstance.

Intercession is putting yourself in God’s place; it is having His mind and His perspective.
