This is a wonderful truth: \u201cWe do not know what we ought to pray for, but the Spirit himself intercedes for us with groans that words cannot express. And he who searches our hearts knows the mind of the Spirit, because the Spirit intercedes for the saints in accordance with God&#8217;s will\u201d (Romans 8:26-27). \u00a0 As the Holy Spirit leads us, know the authority with which you pray as it is Adonai who \u201cChanges times and seasons; He deposes kings and raises up others.\u00a0 He gives wisdom to the wise, and knowledge to the discerning\u201d (Daniel 2:21).\u00a0 Just as Daniel interceded for Israel, join us as we join with the Remnant in the nations to take back their nations for Yeshua the King.
