God is looking for men and women who are willing to stand before Him, people who will carry the pain of the nation in intercessory prayer, people who refuse to curse the darkness and instead become light within it. David Davis was a disciple of David Wilkerson, the author of The Cross and the Switchblade. Wilkerson became known for bringing the Good News to street gangs in New York during the 1950s and 1960s. David carried that same heart to Israel.
I once heard an excellent illustration of our lives under pressure. There are moments in life when a person feels as if he is lying on the ground with the metal track of a heavy tank passing over him. Each link in the track presses him further and further into the earth.
