Highway of Holiness Intercession for the Nations<br />

GATES over Africa and pave a “Highway of Holiness” from Cape<br />

<strong>To</strong>wn South Africa through Cairo Egypt and on to Jerusalem Israel. It<br />

was a mission impossible in the natural, but we have a supernatural<br />

God! This was the first time I had been a part of such a music group<br />

where we corporately played what the Spirit of God was speaking. We<br />

were one in the Spirit and executed His will musically. This is what the<br />

arts were created for… to worship God! I cannot say that I understand<br />

all of the spiritual aspects of what we were doing or accomplishing, but<br />

I do know that Scripture clearly talks about spiritual gates or doors of<br />

entry that are access points in the earth for either good or evil.<br />

Psalms 24:7 says, “Lift up your heads, O you gates! and be lifted up,<br />

you everlasting doors! And the King of glory shall come in!” We need<br />

to know where these spiritual gateways are, and how to activate and<br />

operate in them so that God’s purposes (and not the enemy’s) can be<br />

fulfilled! The state of Florida during the year 2000 presidential election<br />

was an example of a spiritual gateway. There was much warfare being<br />

waged at this “access point” into the USA. Florida intercessors waged<br />

a great spiritual battle at this time, and I also participated in personal<br />

and corporate prayer for God’s will to be done in my nation of<br />

America. The endnotes contain an internet link to some of the history<br />

and “spiritual warfare” information gathered by Florida intercessors<br />

during this “gate opening.” 34<br />

We all gathered on Saturday, August 4th, 2001, in a small<br />

schoolhouse/coffeehouse church to record our musical intercession<br />

before the Lord. With this “gate opening” understanding from the Lord<br />

in mind, we waited upon our KING to give us direction upon our<br />

instruments. There were three different keyboardists, two drummers,<br />

one of whom was a percussion specialist, a flute player, a bass guitar<br />

player, myself on the guitar, and several singers and intercessors. A<br />

brother named Brett Cooksey started us off on the keyboards because<br />

he is from South Africa and has some real connection or functional<br />

authority with the land where we started our intercession. Also, Steve<br />

and Heather Lincoln who played on the drums and assorted percussion<br />

instruments are missionaries in Africa and have a real heart for the<br />

people of this land. Steve and Heather, who are originally from the<br />

UK, travel on a full time basis in Africa and abroad teaching on “free<br />

flow” worship, releasing creativity and spiritual mapping intercession.<br />
