Intercessory prayer is the act of standing in the gap and praying on behalf of others. Often spoken in the language of the Holy Spirit, whom interceeds for us all, it is a selfless expression of love and faith, where believers seek God’s guidance, healing, protection, and blessings for individuals, families, communities, and nations. Through intercession, we partner with God’s will, trusting Him to move powerfully in situations beyond our control. The Bible reminds us in 1 Timothy 2:1 to offer “supplications, prayers, intercessions, and giving of thanks for all men,” showing the importance of lifting others before the Lord in prayer.
