Intercession - A Call to Prayer

 By Deaconess Florence Oyedeji

In Christendom, there are divers types of prayers. Prayers of praise, confession, spiritual warfare, petition and thanksgiving are just a few examples. 

However, intercession or intercessory prayer, I personally feel is the greatest of all types of prayers, because of it’s selfless nature. 

Intercessory prayer is very simple. It’s someone asking God to do something in a person’s life, in the church, or in a certain situation of life. It is coming to God on behalf of someone else. 

It is, as stated earlier, the most selfless, giving sort of prayer. It is ultimately one of the greatest acts of love. 

The importance of intercessory prayer can best be understood as the only ministry we can do today that is the current ministry of Jesus. 

“…"Who is he that condemns? Christ Jesus, who died more than that, who was raised to life-is at the right hand of God and is also interceding for us"  (Romans 8:34).  

As End time Army of the Most High, prayer of Intercession is one of our most valuable weapon of war.  The Lord enlist us in His end-time Army, in Jesus Name You will have good success this 2023.  

Remain blessed.   

Shalom.
