Intercession Sensitivity. Pt 2

🔹When an Intercessor Trembles: Understanding Spiritual Sensitivity in Medical Settings

Have you ever noticed yourself trembling or feeling physically weak around medical environments or medical professionals? For some believers — especially those called as intercessors — this isn't simply a reaction of fear. It may point to a deeper spiritual reality.

▪️It Might Not Be Fear — It Might Be Discernment

Many intercessors are highly sensitive to spiritual atmospheres. They can literally feel the burdens, agreements, or spiritual climates present in certain places.

In the medical field, there is often:
• A heavy presence of sickness, pain, and death — both physical and spiritual.
• A spirit of human control or self-sufficiency (trusting in man above God).
• Fear-based agreements (fear of death, fear of diagnosis, fear of losing control).
• At times, religious spirits of hopelessness or fatalism ("This is terminal; there's nothing anyone can do").

An intercessor might pick up these spiritual realities instantly and tremble — not because they are personally afraid, but because they are sensing intense spiritual warfare and carrying deep compassion.

▪️ Empathic or Identificational Intercession

Some intercessors operate in what could be called empathic or identificational intercession — they actually feel others' pain and emotional burdens so they can pray with greater accuracy and compassion.

In a medical environment, they may sense:
• The fear of patients waiting for a diagnosis.
• The emotional distress of families standing by.
• The spiritual battles raging behind every medical report.

Their spirit may tremble because they are momentarily "standing in the gap," absorbing the atmosphere so they can release it in focused, Spirit-led prayer.

▪️A Specific Call to Pray for the Medical Community

Sometimes this trembling is not just sensitivity but a divine assignment.

God may be inviting the intercessor to:
• Pray for doctors and nurses to walk in wisdom and compassion.
• Break agreements with fear and death that hover over patients.
• Invite the presence of the Holy Spirit into places of medicine and healing.

If you sense this, it may be the Lord drawing you into a targeted prayer ministry for hospitals, clinics, and healthcare workers.

▪️Could It Be Personal Trauma?

While discernment is often the primary reason, it is also wise to consider past experiences.

Some believers have residual trauma or painful memories related to medical care. Even if "forgiven" or "forgotten," the body and spirit can hold an imprint.

However, if you sense that this trembling is more spiritual than personal fear — especially after many years — it is likely discernment rather than unhealed trauma. It's still wise to bring it before the Lord for confirmation and healing if needed.

▪️Maturity Means Learning to Release

In the early stages of intercession, it's common to believe: "I must be the problem." Over time, however, mature intercessors learn to feel the burden without being overwhelmed.

Trembling can be a sign of anointing and sensitivity — not weakness. The key is to learn to sense, intercede, and then release the burden to Jesus, rather than carrying it permanently.

🔹Biblical and Spiritual Context

Scripture offers examples of God's people physically reacting to spiritual realities:
• Ezekiel 9:4 — The man with the ink horn "sighed and cried" over the abominations in Jerusalem. True intercessors often physically react to what God is highlighting.
• Daniel 10:7-8 — Daniel trembled and grew weak when receiving heavy revelation from the Lord.
• Romans 8:26 — "The Spirit Himself makes intercession for us with groanings which cannot be uttered."

⸻

▪️Similar Experiences in the Body of Christ

Many prophetic intercessors report:
• Sudden nausea or weakness in hospitals.
• Inexplicable weeping in certain clinics.
• Trembling simply at the sight or mention of medical staff, even on television.

These physical reactions often point to a deep healing or deliverance assignment — standing against spirits of death and fear or preparing an atmosphere for God's intervention.

🔹Practical Help for Intercessors

▪️Pray for clarity of assignment

"Lord, is this my burden to carry? What exactly are You calling me to pray into?"

▪️Practice immediate release

"Lord, I sense this weight — I give it to You right now. I do not take it upon myself; I lay it at Your feet."

▪️Wear your spiritual armor daily

Stay covered in the full armor of God (Ephesians 6), so burdens don't turn into personal oppression.

▪️Cultivate spiritual authority over fear

If even a trace of fear arises, reaffirm your identity and authority in Christ:

"God has not given me a spirit of fear, but of power, love, and a sound mind." (2 Timothy 1:7)

🔹Summary

✅ Trembling in medical settings is often not personal fear — it is spiritual discernment or burden-bearing.
✅ It may indicate a call to intercede for healing and the medical community.
✅ The goal is to mature into sensing, interceding, and releasing — not carrying the weight alone.



▪️Reflection Questions
• When have you felt unusual physical or emotional reactions in certain places? Could these be spiritual invitations to intercede?
• How can you grow in discerning when to carry a burden and when to release it?
• Is God highlighting a particular group — such as medical professionals — for you to cover in prayer?

🔹Closing Prayer

Lord, teach me to discern the burdens You place on my spirit. Help me to stand in the gap with compassion and strength, and then release these burdens fully to You. Cover me with Your armor and teach me to walk in Your peace and authority. In Jesus' name, amen.
