We have gathered 5 books on intercession for you to get. Intercessory prayer, simply defined, is praying on behalf of others, a role exemplified by numerous figures in the Old Testament and ultimately fulfilled by Christ, the ultimate mediator. Through Jesus’ sacrifice, the barrier between humanity and God was removed, enabling all Christians to engage in intercession, offering prayers for fellow believers and the lost according to God’s will.
This concept is underscored in scripture, emphasizing Christ’s ongoing intercession and highlighting the universal call for believers to act as mediators in prayer, seeking God’s favor for others.
A powerful model of intercessory prayer is found in Daniel 9, demonstrating key elements such as responding to God’s Word, fervent and selfless prayer, identification with God’s people, confession, reliance on God’s character, and a focus on God’s glory.
This example, along with biblical exhortations from apostles like Paul and Peter, clarifies that intercession is not a special gift reserved for a select few “super-Christians,” but a fundamental aspect of the Christian life for all believers. Scripture urges all to pray for those in authority, ministers, fellow believers, the sick, and even enemies, emphasizing that failing to intercede is contrary to God’s will and a missed privilege to approach God’s throne on behalf of others.
They will help you in intercedding rightly.
