Battling the enemy

Cindy Jacobs knows that prayer is a mighty weapon against the evil one.

In her book Possessing the Gates of the Enemy, Jacobs tells of waking up at 2 a.m. with the sense that God wanted her to pray.  She and her husband were attending a major U.S. prayer conference in Bradenton, Florida, at the time.

After asking God whether someone was in trouble, she received a mental picture of two friends and their three children as they drove to the conference.

"All of a sudden, in the vision, the van's right front wheel rolled off and the van careened wildly into a horrible accident," she writes.

She spent the rest of the night praying that the wheel bearings would hold until the Jacobs could see their friends after safe arrival, and warn them about the wheel bearings.

Jacobs told them about her vision and urged them to check the van.  Cindy's husband, Mike, and their friend David Barton drove the van to a garage,

The mechanic was amazed because the wheel bearings were shot.  He said there was no way they could drive the car without the wheels coming off.

This is a typical experience in Cindy Jacobs' life.

Jacobs' life as an intercessor started when she would wake up at night regularly and wonder why.  She finally decided God was waking her up to pray.

"As I began to seek his guidance, names would come to me and specific thoughts about what to pray . . .  So I would pray those thoughts that came to me."

At first, she did not have confirmation that her prayers were being answered.  But that changed when she felt led to pray one night for a minister named Todd in her church.  She did not know him well.  She looked at the clock and noticed it was 3:10 a.m.

The following night at a church service Todd stopped her at the church door and told her that he had cancer and had been feeling desperately alone when he prayed during the night.  He said that God let him know that Cindy Jacobs was praying for him right then.  It was 3:10 a.m.

Todd was subsequently healed of cancer.

Why does Cindy Jacobs have such a powerful ministry?

Early on, she told God: "God, use me in the way you see fit.  I will do anything you want me to do; go anywhere, anyhow."

God will use anyone that committed.

Satan, beware!
