I request your intercession, with the aid of the Holy Spirit; May the Lord, Who prefigured His Resurrection through your own miraculous rising, always guide me in my earthly pilgrimage and protect me in sickness and in health. Together with Saint Martha and Saint Mary, you welcomed the Savior into your home. May I do the same by welcoming Jesus into my heart and serving Him faithfully in my brothers and sisters. Help me to imitate Christ more perfectly. Holy St. Lazarus give me the strength to overcome all temptation and difficulty. May your witness inspire me to have faith and hope in Jesus, especially amid great trial. Pray that I will display heroic virtue and persevere in love so as to merit to be received by God into the halls of heaven. I ask this through our Lord Jesus Christ, the Son of God, who lives and reigns with the Father, in the unity of the Holy Spirit, one God, for ever.

The focal point of today's discussion revolves around the paramount significance of prayer and intercession in the context of spiritual warfare. We delve into the notion that prayer serves not merely as a communication tool with the Divine but as a vital mechanism for activating and empowering the armor of God, which we have systematically explored in previous episodes. Throughout our discourse, we emphasize that prayer should be approached with intentionality and earnestness, recognizing its capacity to transform our spiritual lives and fortify our resilience against adversities. Furthermore, we engage with the concept of intercessory prayer, elucidating its role in supporting others and fostering a community of faith that thrives on mutual upliftment. As we navigate the complexities of prayer, we invite our audience to reflect on their own practices and consider actionable steps to enhance their spiritual discipline in the week to come.Takeaways: The significance of prayer as a fundamental communication tool with God is paramount in spiritual warfare. Consistent prayer enhances our ability to face challenges and strengthens our faith during trials. Intercession, or praying for others, is an essential component of a vibrant prayer life and spiritual support. Engaging in communal prayer with like-minded individuals fosters a deeper connection and enhances spiritual growth. Effective prayer encompasses adoration, confession, thanksgiving, supplication, and intercession, each serving a unique purpose. Establishing a structured prayer routine can significantly improve the consistency and effectiveness of one's prayer life.

SCRIPTURE - Romans 8:26-27SERIES - Romans: Justification By FaithSPEAKER - Pastor Cory Taylor
Intercession"Who is it that can intercede with Him except by His permission?"(Surah Al-Baqarah, 2:255)We continue our series discussing that moment of hope, fear, and divine permission on the Day of Judgment. When the soul stands alone and no one can speak — who will intercede? And how can we be among those honored with that mercy?Led by Shaykh Yaseen Sheikh, this session invites us to reflect deeply on the power of the Prophet's a intercession, the conditions for it, and what we can do now to be among those remembered on that Day.
THE ART OF INTERCESSION || DR DAVID OGBUELI
Stronghold destroying fire...
*Listen to the Show notes and podcast transcript with this multi-language player. SUMMARY: Prayer can only be effective as we reach into the Lord and touch Him. Then you have God working through you to accomplish some aspect of the kingdom or to bring change in some way. In real prayer, we begin to think God's thoughts, to desire the things He desires, to love what He loves. When you do not have a revelation fro the Lord or confirmation, then it is better that you pray in the Holy Spirit by speaking in tongues. SHOW NOTES: You can voice prayers in tongues, believing to minister the presence of the Lord to individuals or situations and know you are having an impact since you are channeling the Holy Spirit. Real prayer prays according to the will of God, which eliminates the opinions and desires of the one praying. Intercession is rendered ineffective by self-interest. Effective prayer is something we learn by humbly believing and seeking God with an open heart, then listening for His guidance. We have to know how to move in the Spirit, so after you've gone through the experience God wants you to go through in your times of intercession, you will know how the release was done. QUOTATIONS: I can pray God's perfect will with no reservations, knowing that my prayers are being heard and they are effective 100%, because they are being voiced by the Holy Spirit. It's very important that you pray right: that you don't make things up. There's many people that they have a situation and they begin to pray out of their own desires; what they think should happen in the situation; and that is the complete wrong way to pray. If you're gonna pray something that directed, you better have confirmation—supernatural confirmation from many voices—before you start directing the spirit realm. Praying is talking, it is communicating and it's relating to the Lord. I really believe that if a heart is open to God and very sincere before the Lord and is attempting to pray, the Lord will show him. About the principle of persistence—we know that the Lord taught parables about this, about prayer, about going before the unjust judge...God is not answering you necessarily because He likes you, or you're His best friend, but He's answering, sometimes because you're just plain old persistent. REFERENCES:
The art of intercession is beyond our traditional concept of prayer. It calls us into a deep and profound comprehension of a sacrificial way of lifestyle that collaborates with the forces of heaven to bring about reformation and transformation to society. It flows from a selfless heart, fully and wholly devoted to God's kingdom purposes and prophetic mandate for man and creation. When we intercede, we step into a sacred calling, standing in the gap in relentless love and courage, aligning earthly realities with the divine will to shift the course of human affairs for individuals, communities, and entire nations.At its core, intercession is an act of love; it's an intentional, Spirit-led intervention on behalf of others. It's the moment when a human heart aligns with God's heart, pleading for His mercy, justice, and purposes to manifest in the earth. Whether it's for a family member, a city, or an entire nation, intercession carries the weight of heaven's redemptive plan. The Bible is filled with examples of intercessors who changed the course of history through their relentless, heartfelt prayers: Daniel, Nehemiah, Abraham, Moses, and countless others who stood before God on behalf of broken people and wayward nations.Consider Daniel's story in Babylon (Daniel 10). From the moment he began to pray, God dispatched an answer, but a spiritual adversary, the prince of Persia, hindered the response for 21 days. Daniel's persistence in prayer, coupled with angelic intervention, ultimately broke through the resistance. This account reveals a critical truth: intercession is not just a spiritual exercise; it's a confrontation with unseen forces that seek to oppose God's will. It requires tenacity, spiritual insight, and a deep understanding of the agencies at play in the spiritual realm.Intercession is heaven's ordained mechanism for transformation. If a nation is to experience revival, renewal, or restoration, it begins with a people who understand the ministry of intercession. These intercessors are the forerunners of change, the ones who labor in prayer to align earthly realities with heaven's purposes. But to be effective, intercession demands more than fervent prayers; it requires a clear understanding of the spiritual dynamics involved and a heart fully surrendered to God's redemptive plan.
In this message, we reflected on the deceptive nature of the world system and God's loving response toward His people. Through Scripture, we explored how God uses chastisement not to condemn us but to keep us aligned with His truth. We considered the role of judgment, prophecy, and obedience in preserving our spiritual identity. We recognized how the world subtly influences thoughts, behaviors, and even religious traditions, often masking rebellion in the guise of culture or progress. By abiding in Christ, walking in truth, and receiving divine counsel, we are called to resist temptation and live as distinct from the world. The meeting closed with gratitude for God's unwavering love, and a prayer for His protection and guidance.

There are different arenas in which we can choose to do spiritual warfare. There is agricultural, courtroom, and battlefield warfare. God truly wants prayer to be preventative in our lives. We can have things theologically that we don't yet have experientially. Intercession is meant to bring what we have theologically into reality. Jesus and His 12 never experienced sickness, tragedy, or loss. They were always on the offensive, solving other people's problems, healing the sick, and casting out demons. God desires for us to live in a place of security and safety so we can go out and fight other people's battles, rather than being stuck fighting our own.
The cross represents both God's great love for humanity and His great hatred for sin.
We reflected on the call to live by faith and dependency on God, exploring the power of prayer, worship, and Christ's intercession. Through Scripture and shared insights, we were reminded of God's unbreakable love, the challenge of adversity, and the need to remain submitted to Christ. Our time ended with gratitude and a renewed commitment to follow God's plan with confidence and trust.

What is intercession? Intercession is the act of praying for others. It is standing in the gap for the soul, life, and eternal state of another person. Intercessory prayer is a privilege and responsibility of every Christian. Andrew Murray wrote in the Ministry of Intercession “the power of the church to truly bless rests on intercession: asking and receiving heavenly gifts to carry to men.” In this Faith for My Generation podcast episode, we discuss six aspects of Intercession and how we can engage in this powerful ministry.
