INTENSIVE INTERCESSION ENSURES EFFECTIVE INTERACTION. TARGET EVANGELISM.
What if everyone in your congregation gets as passionate as you're reaching out to people and winning 5 people each to the Lord Jesus Christ and to your Church in 3 months, and the momentum is maintained and ongoing?

Intensive intercession BEFORE interaction will make that practically possible irrespective of the level of spiritual insensitivity, lethargy and apostasy. It all depends on dedicated execution and passionate follow through.

One of the most effective teaching methods ever is PRACTICAL APPLICATION of any principle and not mere verbal communication. Jesus Christ sent His disciples on a mission empty handed. Naturally speaking, they ought to return grumbling, grumpy and grouchy, putting in their resignation, but the scripture said they returned REJOICING, no longer self centered, but service oriented, eager to serve, WHY COULDN'T WE CAST OUT THAT DEVIL, TEACH US TO PRAY, IF IT'S YOU LORD ASK ME TO COME TO YOU WALKING ON WATER, WHEN WILL YOUR KINGDOM COME, WE WON'T LEAVE YOU BUT DIE WITH YOU.

When you successfully engage your congregation in intensive TARGET intercession BEFORE interaction, the Holy Spirit takes over from there and take them through wonderful PERSONAL experiences that would edify, encourage, challenge, inspire them to aspire in God's Work no one would teach them in decades. Never underrate and underutilize anyone God puts in your ministry and congregation, not even your precious children.

Intensive Target Intercession is the infallible success secret to Effective Interaction concerning TARGET EVANGELISM. Let saints spend at least 3 days interceding for targeted unbelievers BEFORE any attempt to interact and share the gospel with them. Saints should have a list of at most 3 targeted unbelievers per time. And always bring their list to Church for corporate target intercession sessions before every service. Always emphasize the fact that we're not just trying to fill the pews through Target Intercession and Evangelism, but the goal is because God loves to have unbelievers saved, that's why He sent Jesus Christ and we love them enough to share God's gift of eternal life with us who already believe. GOD LOVES PEOPLE AND WE DO TOO.

1) Success happens when our relationship with God is cordial, peaceful and loving. When we give honor to God, He honors and favors us. ENTER HIS PRESENCE WITH THANKSGIVING AND HIS COURTS WITH PRAISE, not with complaining and murmuring. Psalm 100. This is a powerful step of faith that proves our absolute faith, trust and dependence in God.

2) Next, don't present your needs first, but that of others. That's what intercession means. When we put others first, by bringing their needs to God first, we're putting God's Kingdom first just like Jesus said we should in Matthew 6:33.

a) Pray for National, State and community leaders that they we may live in peace, dignity, prosperity and godliness leading with God's wisdom and help.

1 Timothy 2:1-5.
I exhort therefore, that, FIRST OF ALL, supplications, prayers, intercessions, and giving of thanks, be made for all men; For kings(Presidents, Governors etc.), and for all that are in authority; that we may lead a quiet and peaceable life in all godliness and honesty. For this is good and acceptable in the sight of God our Savior; Who will have all men to be saved, and to come unto the knowledge of the truth. For there is one God, and one mediator between God and men, the man Christ Jesus;

b) Pray for the personal needs of the targeted unbeliever, starting with the spiritual needs of salvation.

* We must bind and cast out the god of this world Satan, and UNBELIEF his tool to keep people from believing the Gospel.
2 Corinthians 4:4. It's God's will for everyone to be saved no matter what they have done. 2 Peter 3:9; 1 Timothy 2:3,4.

* Let your congregation be observant about the physical needs of the targeted unbeliever and then keep taking authority over the devil to stop afflicting these precious people and then lose on them the goodness and blessings of God to meet those specific needs. That is a major demonstration of love.

* Saints should keep asking the Lord for a specific Word or scripture to share with the targeted unbeliever (salt seasoned, gracious words) and the boldness, utterance and eloquence to share it by word of mouth, text, note, email or by phone.

Every member of your congregation and children old enough to own a phone should have an internet ministry. Commit them to receive a seasoned Word from God and share it on their pages and to their friends. In no time, they will start hearing and obeying God's voice promptly and mature speedily spiritually. That's where people, particularly youths spend most of their time and that's where to get their attention. Monitor their activities on their pages, encourage and guide them.

3) Give thanks to God again that the answer is on the way. Philippians 4:6,7. If the unbelievers are far away or the circumstances are not conducive for sharing the gospel with them personally, they should ask the Lord to send anointed laborers to share the Gospel with them.

During every service, before and after, intensive intercession and spiritual warfare should focus on getting sinners saved and brought into God's Kingdom. We must be God's Kingdom minded. We focus first on these before we pray about our personal needs and when we do it this way, God is delighted and our needs are met speedily in the name of Jesus Christ.

Matthew 6:33
But seek first the kingdom of God and His righteousness, and all these things shall be added to you.

Isaiah 65:24.
And it shall come to pass, that before they call, I will answer; and while they are yet speaking, I will hear. says the LORD.

Hallelujah!
