Summary
A key facet of tearing down demonic strongholds is mobilizing the body of Christ to work together in unity. Almost two decades ago, God showed Cindy Jacobs that "In a time of war, it is the generals who make the battle plans. The Lord wanted us to meet together to hear His plan of strategy as He revealed it through...different ministries."
Generals of Intercession (GOI) was founded upon this initial assignment from the Lord, and a commitment to unity is still a primary focus of the ministry today. GOI believes strongly in the Biblical observation that a threefold cord is not quickly broken. The united, complementary ministry gifting of Cindy and Mike Jacobs has been graced by God to impact the body of Christ at large. GOI considers the third strand of this threefold cord to be their ministry partners, whose fervent intercession and financial commitments are vital to prepare the way for God's blessing to the nations.

Shunamite Covenant
God beckoned us to establish the Shunamite Covenant Partnership based on an example of mutual blessing found in the friendship between the prophet Elisha and a Shunamite woman. Through her support in mundane, everyday needs, Elisha was empowered to fulfill the mandate God had put on his life. And in the process, God brought dramatic blessing to the Shunamite woman, her husband and family!
Our Shunamite Covenant Partners commit to a monthly financial donation of $20 or more through an automatic withdrawal on the 20th of each month (to make the withdraws, either a voided check or credit card number is needed). Additionally, we ask for a commitment to praying regularly for us and the staff at Generals of Intercession. It's so important to note that the Shunamite blessing flowed through a budding friendship that empowered all to fulfill their destinies in the Lord. Here at Generals, we want to extend our hearts to you. When you covenant with us as a Shunamite Partner, we will offer you:
· A tape of the month for donors giving $50.00 or more per month
· Special discounts on products and materials
· Free attendance at complimentary Shunamite Partner lunches across the nations
Together for the harvest,
Mike & Cindy Jacobs
