KAIROS, A TIME TO PAGA: Prayer Note # 36

    

Dutch Sheets gives several examples of Kairos times of prayer. 

One was of a family who prayed fervently for protection while clinging to each other during a tornado. 

They sat together on the floor in the hallway of their home, calling out to God for protection while everything around them came apart. 

They survived the tornado, though their house was destroyed. Some others in the neighborhood were killed or injured.     

Another example of a Kairos season was when a man 'had a reoccurring dream, which he felt strongly was a warning from the Lord, of his married daughter dying . . .   he felt strongly that Satan had a well-laid plan to take his daughter’s life . . . he told only his son-in-law and the two of them began to intercede (paga) daily for her safety.

They were building boundaries (paga) of protection around her.'

They prayed for the daughter. 'That is creating a meeting (paga) with God.'

'To protect her from any trap Satan has set for her

(see Ps. 91:3) . . .  That is building ‘boundaries (paga) of protection.'

They thanked God 'for laying this prayer burden on them that it might lift off and carry away from the woman' (nasa) this assignment of death. That’s having someone else’s burden or weakness laid on (paga) us.”

They addressed Satan to 'break any hold {he} may have gained in this situation. That is meeting (paga) the enemy to break.'


   "I do this in the name of Jesus! That’s basing all our prayers 
    on the work Christ has already done. It’s representing Him . . .        administering what He has already accomplished . . . 
    enforcing His victory.”

About a month later, the daughter had a physical exam that showed she had no potassium in her at all, and should be dead! 

She was hospitalized immediately and began to replenish the potassium. She lived, of course. 

She had been on a strange diet for several weeks during which she had eaten only one or two kinds of food. 

Though there was no reasonable explanation as to why she lived, we know the spiritual explanation: A boundary (paga) of protection built in the spirit through prayer.”

Prayer Note # 36- KAIROS, A TIME TO PRAY -Taken from Dutch Sheets’ book, Intercessory Prayer  (pgs. 85-88  (5/3/12).    

Ps. 9:9,10 (NKJV) " The LORD also will be a refuge 
for the oppressed refuge in times of trouble. And those 
who know Your name will put their trust in You; For 
You, LORD, have not forsaken those who seek You.”
