You and I have unique calls to serve God. God has by design made us different and unique. You and I are called to pursue God whatever your calling or purpose. In the midst of the call or destiny that God has ordained for you and I He has set us as watchmen. Prayer is what enables one to communicate with God. Prayer is another avenue of engaging God. Prayer is God's chosen method of relationship building.
Whether you are a plumber or a pastor, a councillor or counselor, an usher or the choir leader, we all have a responsibility to pray. It's in the place of prayer that miracles are wrought. Prayer enables one to wrestle and prevail thus establishing the dominion of God. Prayer is the place of communion with God. There are different levels of prayer. One dimension of prayer that i believe Ezekiel was challenging us not to forget was the watchman's dimension in prayer. You and I have a responsibility to pray not just for ourselves but for those around us. We have a duty to watch over not only our families, but our localities, the cities we live in and the nation we dwell in. God has called us to watch over the land we are set in.
God is looking for men and women who will rise in the role of a watchman in the place of prayer. True love of your neighbour is expressed in the place of a watchman. A watchman warns of the impending evil and only a committed person is willing to risk their lives to take up this role. As I read about the call to be a watchman and the responsibility as per Eze 33 I came to a place of conviction. As I read I realised how weak my prayer life is. I made a choice to stir up the watchman dimension in my prayer life that I may see the world changed.
