In Between
In Between in the third part of the T.R.I.N.I.T.Y. prayer acronym (see earlier posts).
This is the time where you are the In Between for someone and God. You are the one standing in the gap, you are interceding for someone. I always pray for my family, but it is encouraged to not only pray for "your four and no more" but for those you know need prayer, whether that be people going through divorce, experiencing death, being diagnosed with cancer, facing difficult decisions, etc. We also follow Jesus' rule of praying for our enemies. So we want to make sure the people who annoy us or frustrate us the most are at the top of our prayer lists. I also think it is good to write down specific requests and also write the date, and the date that they are answered. This is also the time to pray that God would soften the hearts of people who do not know Jesus Christ, that they would know him.
Your idea: since Jesus called 12 disciples, write down on a piece of paper 12 people that you will commit to praying for daily, and pray for them, lifting them up to God, do not forget to have at least one of those 12 who is your chief enemy and who you do not like.
