Grow In intercession

Intercessors Rise!

The bible says, "Train up a child in the way he should go: and when he is old, he will not depart from it." (Proverbs 22:6) I like to think as children of Christ this scripture still applies to us even when we are adults. As "children" of God, we constantly need to be trained. Here at D3, one of our core values is prayer and we have 3 groups of intercessors who have been trained constantly to PRAY the agenda of Heaven! This past Saturday we had an amazing training on intercession! Learning the foundation of intercession comes from training. Questions like, "What is an intercessor? Why do we need to intercede?" or "How do we even intercede effectively?" Are answered in training.

This past Saturday, we refreshed ourselves on the foundation of intercession. Intercession is the act of saying a prayer on behalf of another person. An intercessor interrupts, intervenes, and intercedes for another person or thing. An intercessor is an ambassador, they are divine communicators, protectors, prophetic praying people, and preparers. Intercessors are mediators in prayer. Have you ever heard that scripture that says Jesus intercedes for us?

Romans 8:34 says, "Who is to condemn? Christ Jesus is the one who died—more than that, who was raised—who is at the right hand of God, who indeed is interceding for us." As intercessors we are the middleman praying to God on the behalf of others like Jesus does for us. There are different levels to intercession as well, there is regular intercession and then there is prophetic intercession where you begin to pray the Lord's heart into a situation and stand in the gap. Intercession is prayer but prayer is not always intercession. We as intercessors have the authority to decree the word and promises of God over situations that affect change in our atmosphere. How cool is that? Intercession is a very important aspect of our lifestyle. Every day we are called to pray. 1 Thessalonians 5:17 says, "Pray without ceasing." How much more effective could we be if we learned how to pray intentionally with the authority and tools given to us.
