Open Heavens: A Study on the Art of Intercessory Warfare - Paperback

by Augusto L. Perez (Author)

Have you ever wondered why there seems to be open heavens in one city with signs, wonders and miracles taking place, while in another the heavens appear to be made out of brass as if God is withholding His blessing? If we are going to discover the answer to this puzzling question, we must go back to the very foundation of the early Church in America that produced earth shaking revivals and giants of the faith such as Jonathan Edwards, John Wesley, Charles Finney, William Seymour and the early Pentecostal and Healing Movements. If we have any hope of impacting our cities, we must begin by changing the present day condition of the Church. In its present weakened condition the Church in America will not be able to change itself, let alone impact the cities. A paradigm shift needs to take place in the consciousness of the Church, to shake them out of their slumber and wake up to the reality that we are in the middle of a spiritual war zone. The present religious structure cannot contain the outpouring that is fixing to take place. Many high places are going to have to come down, and major shifts and changes take place in the Church if it wants to be a part of what God is about to do in the world. The Apostolic Reformation that is coming will impact and transform cities and nations as apostolic houses begin to release God's power and authority. This is not a pipe dream, but the only true foundation upon which God's Kingdom should be built. Everything else is but shifting sands that cannot withstand the storms that are about to come against the world. Any church that has been built upon any foundation other than the Apostles and Prophets, Jesus Christ Himself being the chief cornerstone, will not survive the great shaking that is about to take place. A reformation will take place on this earth that will shake the Church to its very foundation, and prepare the Bride for the return of our Lord Jesus Christ. This book is about a topic that is very misunderstood and desperately needed in the body of Christ. It was written to help train believers in the lost art of Intercessory Prayer and Spiritual Warfare. This book takes you through the four levels of prayer, and teaches you with simple yet profound insight how to become a prayer warrior in the kingdom of God. If you have been feeling like the Lord is calling you to a higher level in your prayer life and desire to walk under open heavens, this book will help you get there. Come, oh mighty man and woman of God! Let the Lord of Hosts train your hands to war the only way we are able to fight this war and win: Intercessory Warfare. If you feel that God has called you to intercession, this book will teach you what you need to know about intercessory warfare, and help you to become one of the end-times warrior intercessors that will usher in the great double portion outpouring of His Spirit upon this earth.
