Intercession

 Show up tired

You won’t leave same I promise!

Time will fail me to speak

Of the different surge of energy 

Our Helper infuses into our Spirit

 as you prosecute your assignment. 

I’d speak of the prayer experience; 

The moment your willing heart 

Bows in surrender 

Inspite of the motions of tiredness

Many at times, oh! Intercessor!

You give in to the excuse

“I am tired”

Choosing to miss out

On the manifold supply of grace.

I do not speak against rest

But to your surprise,

That same tired self

Was able to sit for an hour, plus two

Fixated on a screen and felt at ease

Forgetting it was tired.

Oh Beloved, I write of the urgency of the time

The Spirit is willing

To pour out Himself 

If only we show up

So much of Grace supplied

We are not left without Help

In this strategic hour!

Pick a side 

Oh! soldier 

Your commander never grows weary 

All He says is show up

I’d supply the strength

To those feeble knees.

These are times of lifting

Times for shifting

For the weak

Who will receive strength 

On the platter of obedience. 

Your Helper says “show up”

I’d supply the strength

At the midnight watch

While men slept. 

I’d overshadow you 

With My strength. 

This is a call for intercession
