Facts About Intercession at CHM

CHM has 385 intercessors. Each intercessor prays for about 30 people for a month's period. We pray God's Word (Scripture) for the categorized needs, i.e., Deliverance, Physical, Inner Healing, Relationships, Salvation, Protection, Comfort, Infilling of the Holy Spirit, Special Needs (this includes finances, jobs, homes, mates, blessings in business, legal matters), Wisdom, Guidance, Peace, Strength, Joy. When you send in your request please give first name only of the person in need, and a brief description of that person's need. Remember, no request is too great or too small for our Lord. If you have had answered prayer from a request you have submitted in the past, we would like to hear about it. If you would like to join us as an intercessor, we'd love to have you. Your life will certainly be blessed. It requires about twenty minutes of your time only three times a week, more if you choose.

The following are quotes from some of our intercessors:

"I am writing to thank you for the privilege of being one of your new intercessors. The first time I made intercession for the requests sent to me as part of my morning devotion, I felt lightened and blessed, and I continue to feel good about it."

"The first week of the month I thought my request had gone in too late for that prayer period, but I woke up one morning with a desire to pray the scriptures you had sent. I knew something wonderful had happened. I went on to experience a complete healing with my relationship with God and now He is working on the problem I thought He had forgotten. I have heard faith teachers who talked about the Word, but I thought prayer was prayer, but now miracle after miracle has happened. The anointing is on the Word! What untapped power is there! No wonder the people seeking to translate the Bible into English were killed."

"It's so simple that all of us have missed it. His Word is the power, and contains within it seed and root to grow His will into fruition in this dimension. We may struggle with prayer and achieve nothing and our minds scoff that just saying His Word over names will do something, but God is so powerful that just His Word Accomplishes His will."
