"The people of the land practice extortion and commit robbery; they oppress the poor and ill-treat the alien, denying them justice. I looked for man among them who would build up the wall and stand before me in the gap on behalf of the land so that I would not destroy it, but I found none." Ezekiel 22: 29-30. An intercessor is a person (or group of people) who takes on himself someone else's sin, who fully identifies with the sin and with the sinner and began to work with God until the guilty party is forgiven. They are needed because they stand in the gap between God and man, pushing God to bless the man or to inflict him the deserved punishment. Although intercessors are im- portant, the tragedy is that there is a shortage of intercessors, God himself complained of their scarcity. The judgment of God has come and is about to come into the world, not only because the world has sinned, but because there is a shortage of intercessors. Does it ring a bell? God has not changed. What he did in the past, he will do today. The sinful condition of man has not changed. His judgment will come. It is imminent. When it will come, it will be devastating. Does this matter to you that multitudes are going to perish soon? If this worries you, are you going to do something about it?
