Pray, Making Intercession

Pray, Making Intercession

Young Ambassadors ministry is a ministry geared to, and led by, students with the sole purpose of returning Christ to the local school campuses for the honor and glory of the lord. This ministry is affiliated with Youth United for Christ, a ministry of the Unified Pentecostal Local Churches. For the past Month we have studied about a man that goes by Paul who was somebody who understood prayer and its power. Prayer was a part of Paul's life, and he took it for granted that it would be a part of the life of every Christian. Today we go over making intersession in prayer!

IV. Pray, making intercession
Intercessory prayer is basically praying for others, it is praying for God's will to be done in the lives of other people.
Intercessory prayers characterized the prayer life of Jesus.

In Isaiah 53:12 the Bible says, He Himself bore the sins of many and, interceded for the transgressors."
Luke 22:23 Jesus tells Peter, "I have prayed for you, that your faith may not fail;"
Luke 23:34 on the cross, Jesus was praying for others when He said, "Father forgive them for they do not know what they are doing."
John 14:15 Jesus interceded for us, asking the Father to send the Holy Spirit
John 17:19 He prayed for us, the church, in His High Priestly prayer. Listen to the intercessory nature of this prayer, "I ask on their behalf; I do not ask on behalf of the world, but of those whom Thou has given Me . . . "
Romans 8:34 tells us that Jesus is seated at the right hand of the Father, making intercession for us.
And Hebrews 7:25 says, "Hence, also, He is able to save forever those who draw near to God through Him, since He always lives to make intercession for them."
We must pray for others.
Five things that happen when we pray:
1. Prayer internalizes the burden
2. Prayer forces us to wait
3. Prayer opens our spiritual eyes
4. It aligns our heart with God's heart
5. Prayer enables us to move forward
What does your prayer life look like this morning? Are you persistent in prayer? Are your prayers passionate or are they perfunctory? Are they filled with intensity and fervor or are they weak, timid and lacking faith? What about gratitude? How much time have you spent thanking God for all He has done for you? And who are you praying for? Is there anyone in your life that you are praying will get saved? Is there a burden on your heart to see God's kingdom expand, to see His will done
