There are a lot of things going on inside the Gap.

Romans 8:22 NASB95
22 For we know that the whole creation groans and suffers the pains of childbirth together until now.
When we say gap we often think of empty space between two known spaces.
Between the dream and what is.
Between what God says and what is.
Between healing and suffering.
I am hear to tell you there is something inside that gap already.
Life is in the gap
Holy Spirit is in the gap
Jesus is in the gap.
Part of prayer is making your request known to God.
Intercession is standing in that promise as though it is before you see it with natural sight.
Intercession: To Light Upon, to make ready, or bring to pass.
Intercession it to shine light on a person or promise until it becomes what is realized.
To stand in that gap as though it already is real.
What kind of person would you like to intercede for you?
I would like someone who has seen it work before many time to intercede for me.
A person who could stand in the gap as though that is real already.
Have you ever had someone see something good in you that you did not see yet? They kept calling that out in you and treating you that way until it become fully realized.
Danie with training:
When I taught my girls to ride a bike, I knew they could before they did. I was in the gap for them.
It did not matter if they fell.
It did not matter much about what they did. I knew they could do it.
There really is only one thing delaying your promise, that is your belief in what He is say and standing in for you.
That is alright, He is patient, He is Kind, He is longsuffering.
Romans 8:28 NASB95
28 And we know that God causes all things to work together for good to those who love God, to those who are called according to His purpose.
This is a promise from God.
This promise may feel like it is in the future.
This promise is more real then what we see or feel.
Romans 8:26 NASB95
26 In the same way the Spirit also helps our weakness; for we do not know how to pray as we should, but the Spirit Himself intercedes for us with groanings too deep for words;
Romans 8:34 NASB95
34 who is the one who condemns? Christ Jesus is He who died, yes, rather who was raised, who is at the right hand of God, who also intercedes for us.
Gen X is called by God to be a bridge or the gap.
The best person to stand in the gap is one who has the most faith, hope, and love you will receive and become what is promised. Hint, the best possible person, is already standing in that Gap.
Holy Spirit and Jesus are shining a light on what is more real then what you currently see.
Holy Spirit and Jesus are proclaiming what is more real then what you currently see.
Holy Spirit and Jesus are making ready what is more real then what you currently see.
Holy Spirit and Jesus are bringing to pass what is more real then what you currently see.

Romans 8:22–25 NASB95
22 For we know that the whole creation groans and suffers the pains of childbirth together until now. 23 And not only this, but also we ourselves, having the first fruits of the Spirit, even we ourselves groan within ourselves, waiting eagerly for our adoption as sons, the redemption of our body. 24 For in hope we have been saved, but hope that is seen is not hope; for who hopes for what he already sees? 25 But if we hope for what we do not see, with perseverance we wait eagerly for it.
Romans 8:26–39 NKJV
26 Likewise the Spirit also helps in our weaknesses. For we do not know what we should pray for as we ought, but the Spirit Himself makes intercession for us with groanings which cannot be uttered. 27 Now He who searches the hearts knows what the mind of the Spirit is, because He makes intercession for the saints according to the will of God. 28 And we know that all things work together for good to those who love God, to those who are the called according to His purpose. 29 For whom He foreknew, He also predestined to be conformed to the image of His Son, that He might be the firstborn among many brethren. 30 Moreover whom He predestined, these He also called; whom He called, these He also justified; and whom He justified, these He also glorified. 31 What then shall we say to these things? If God is for us, who can be against us? 32 He who did not spare His own Son, but delivered Him up for us all, how shall He not with Him also freely give us all things? 33 Who shall bring a charge against God’s elect? It is God who justifies. 34 Who is he who condemns? It is Christ who died, and furthermore is also risen, who is even at the right hand of God, who also makes intercession for us. 35 Who shall separate us from the love of Christ? Shall tribulation, or distress, or persecution, or famine, or nakedness, or peril, or sword? 36 As it is written: “For Your sake we are killed all day long; We are accounted as sheep for the slaughter.” 37 Yet in all these things we are more than conquerors through Him who loved us. 38 For I am persuaded that neither death nor life, nor angels nor principalities nor powers, nor things present nor things to come, 39 nor height nor depth, nor any other created thing, shall be able to separate us from the love of God which is in Christ Jesus our Lord.
Hebrews 13:15 NASB95
15 Through Him then, let us continually offer up a sacrifice of praise to God, that is, the fruit of lips that give thanks to His name.
