Lord deposits something in our spirits that was not there…
““Lord deposits something in our spirits that was not there before; and even after He lifts His hand, we carry that burden as a word or commission from Him. He lays on us a “burden” for a particular situation, and we may carry that impartation for days, weeks, months, or even years. For example, it might be a burden over the abortion situation in the United States. God’s hand comes upon us and then departs, leaving behind a supernatural enablement of grace, a Holy Spirit endowment to prophesy and intercede in a way we never could before. I have addressed this theme thoroughly in my book Kneeling on the Promises: Birthing God’s Purposes Through Prophetic Intercession.””
