True intercession involves bringing the person, or the circumstance that seems to be crashing in on you, before God, until you are changed by His attitude toward that person or circumstance. People describe intercession by saying, "It is putting yourself in someone elseโs place." That is not true! Intercession is putting yourself in Godโs place; it is having His mind and His perspective.
