Prayers of intercession are prayers we pray for others, so that the door will be open for the Lord to do something in their lives, especially save them. The interesting thing is, that when believers make this type of prayer a habit, amazing things begin to happen. Not only is the possibility for those we pray for to get help from the Holy Spirit much more likely; we ourselves grow spiritually and become closer to God; more consecrated.

This type of self-discipline strengths our walk, as well as our witness and our countenance. Moreover, when we pray regularly for others, God opens our eyes and amazing things happen: more is revealed as to what we can do/say to help our loved ones and even strangers on our prayer list, we feel His Presence more palpably and we may even become inspired in other ways, like in writing, as He provides ideas, and inspiration in this as well as other creative areas of interest.

This type of dedication is rewarding in a variety of ways. It has the power to bring greater clarity in areas we need ourselves and may even provide an extra layer of provision and other blessings and favor (it sure has for me!)

Regularly praying for others is like a secret weapon spiritually speaking and opens the door for God to do more in our own lives, as we continue to devote ourselves to Him.

There is no right or wrong way to do this, but it's much more doable when you follow a list of people and/or groups of people, so as not to forget anyone or repeat yourself. These prayers do not need to be said out loud, however, it is imperative to say them without distraction. Keeping the TV off and trying to be alone is the best way. Furthermore, it is also helpful to make this happen at the start of your day in order to start the day off right and get your prayers in before the day begins (Work your schedule around God, rather than to try to fit God into your schedule. The most conducive way is to get up a little earlier and make prayer the first thing you do.)

Let God lead you in this new endeavor and enjoy your time with the Lord! Our private time with Him is so precious and valuable. Once you develop this habit, you will hate for anything to interfere in this special time or cause you to become distracted. Praying for others will prove to be incredibly satisfying for you and God will love spending that time with you too!

One Last Note:

People need to be saved now, before it's too late and they miss the Rapture. There has never been a more vital time for all people everywhere to find Truth and walk in Truth and our prayers should be centered around that goal.
