Strategic Intercession Global Network (SIGN)

The Strategic Intercession Global Network (SIGN) is a select group of committed intercessors, connected globally by the internet and e-mail, with a calling to intercede for “strategic level issues impacting the Body.”

SIGN is not intended to be a “catch all” prayer chain. There are other lists that are dedicated to personal prayer for individuals and local groups.

SIGN  addresses issues that are strategic in nature, that typically involve a regional to global focus. The intercessory response to these issues pivots on the core to Jesus’ Kingdom message, which is the employment of righteous power in worldly settings; that with God the spiritual dimension carries the source of good for the natural as we serve as ambassadors of God’s blessings to those around us. The ripples from the mobilization of this focus bear an impact that extends to key segments of the Body around the world.

Our Purpose is…

The purpose of the Strategic Intercession Global Network (SIGN) is to unite prophetic intercessors to intercede for strategic issues impacting the Body on a regional to global level. This purpose involves defining and targeting issues that bear an impact on communities and nations. Our role in short is to provide a strategic perspective from God’s heart for coordinated, Spirit-led intercessory prayer.

SIGN email members consist of individuals, as well as groups (churches, ministries, intercession groups). The goal is to provide timely and targeted input that highlights significant issues and trends impacting the Body that typically reflects a biblically-based, but big-picture. contemporaneous spiritual perspective.

We consider the ministry of intercession as a part of the prophetic giftings, specifically oriented by the description of the sons of Issachar, who were known as “men who understood the times and knew what to do.”

The Focus for SIGN

SIGN is very Israel- and marketplace-focused. Why? Because we believe that, along with the persecuted church, they are God’s priorities for these times.  SIGN also is prophetically contemporaneous, as we reach for the standard of maturity Paul outlines in Ephesians 4 that combines the full knowledge of the Lord and unity within the Body.

SIGN is a low-volume email list with the purpose of addressing strategic-level issues impacting the Body globally.  Posts are short articles that typically come from SIGN’s director’s and adviser’s prayer closets, that target and define the dynamics of one of these “issues.”  Rather than analysis, what is sought is God’s heart and His priorities. SIGN was birthed in early 1996 and is a part of the ministry of Global Initiatives Foundation (www.strategic-initiatives.org).

While everyone needs intercessory prayer, it should be re-emphasized that the Strategic Intercession Global Network is not a prayer chain for personal requests.
