Wagners Vermächtnis liegt in der Anregung von Diskussionen über den Glauben und dessen praktische Anwendung im Leben von Einzelpersonen und Gemeinschaften.

Die Grundlage der Gemeinde
If the summation of the gospel is to love God with all our hearts and our neighbor as ourselves, then the essence of how we fulfill that commandment is found in clothing ourselves in an attitude of humility. First we walk humbly with God; then we practice humility toward our fellow human beings. Becoming a humble person is God's will for every believer, but it is every individual's choice. If we do not choose to walk humbly but instead choose to exalt ourselves, God will humble us in a way that we would never have chosen. This character quality is so dear to God's heart that it is the key to walking closely with Him and finishing life well.

You can help these leaders by reinforcing them through intercessory prayer. In this book, Peter Wagner not only teaches the biblical basis for intercessory prayer, but also shares who is and who isn't an intercessor, why leaders themselves often don't pray enough, what the three types of personal intercessors are, and how you can recruit prayer partners.
