We have gathered 5 books on intercession for you to get. Simply put, intercessory prayer is praying on behalf of others. Christ, the ultimate mediator, ultimately fulfilled this function, which was modeled by many Old Testament figures. Because of Jesus’ sacrifice, which broke down the wall between God and humanity, all Christians are now able to pray for one another and the lost in accordance with God’s will.
Scripture emphasizes this idea, stressing Christ’s constant intercession and the universal call for Christians to serve as mediators in prayer, asking God for others’ favor.
Daniel 9 provides a compelling example of intercessory prayer, highlighting important components including heeding God’s Word, praying fervently and selflessly, identifying with God’s people, confessing, relying on God’s character, and focusing on God’s glory.
Together with biblical exhortations from apostles like Paul and Peter, this example makes it clear that intercession is a vital component of the Christian life for all believers rather than a unique talent saved for a small group of “super-Christians.” The Bible exhorts everyone to pray for ministers, people in positions of power, other believers, the unwell, and even adversaries. It emphasizes that not praying is against God’s will and a lost opportunity to approach God’s throne on behalf of others.
