Dear James W. Goll:

When I read on your God Moments Page, that you were looking for testimonies as to how Encounters Network has impacted your life I was instantly reminded of your teaching on Judicial Intercession. I first read either your newsletter article on it or something you put on the Elijah List about Judicial Intercession.

I decided to grabbed hold of that teaching. I had no idea how it worked but I had some revelation from the Father as to a generational curse that was affecting the relationship between two of my children and a word of knowledge about a spirit someone was operating under that was ungodly towards another one of my children. I did my research by looking up verses I deemed appropriate to the situations and verses that were appropriate to all injustices where evil spirits were operating behind the scenes. I patterned it after what I knew of court cases, in the natural, which is limited to my serving on jury duty or watching jury cases on TV. I then presented my case before the Judge, Father God, with Jesus acting as the intermediary. I would picture the courtroom in my mind and I would stand the accused before the Lord for Him to judge. I would present the spirits that I was aware of, remind God of His Word, which is law, using the verses I had looked up. I would even present precedent cases of similar things from the word of God to him, like a trial lawyer would do. I then asked Him to sentence the accused to the pit ,far away from the person I was defending, for all time. I asked for restitution within the situation to be made in the form of restored relationships, etc.

Whatever was lost was to be restored seven-fold in like kind. I then rested my case and left it in the Lord's hand. I would see the evil spirits being led away in shackles at this point. Both of the situations were reversed almost immediately by praying this way and they were on-going, didn't think you would ever see them change, situations. I believe this is a very effective way of praying that sees results very quickly. Praise God for your wisdom and insight to bring this to us.
