Praying Powerfully For Others

from Destination Church Spokane Podcast · host Jon Meek II

It's no small thing to have Jesus interceding before the Father on our behalf. It's because of Jesus as our intercessor that we have immediate access to the Father any time, anywhere. This access gives makes us effective as an interceding people, petitioning God through prayer for non-believers to be saved and for believers to be encouraged and strengthened. And because we still often aren't sure what to pray for, the Holy Spirit intercedes for us too, guiding the direction of our prayer. As Christians, we get to pray from a position of family, security, and authority that is wholly submitted to God. We pray God's revealed will, knowing for certain that He is above and beyond anything we could ever ask for. So what should we pray for? Paul's prayer in Ephesians 3 gives us a glimpse into the height and depth of the love of God, and He wants us and those we pray for to be deeply rooted and grounded in that love. We know this for certain, and we can pray this with great confidence!
