About this listen

 Intercession is one of the most powerful yet often overlooked callings in a believer’s life. It goes beyond personal prayer—intercession shifts our focus from ourselves to standing before God on behalf of others. It is spiritual advocacy, partnership with Heaven, and a willingness to carry someone else’s burden in prayer.

Scripture gives us a clear picture in Daniel, a man who confessed the sins of his nation and sought God’s mercy even when he personally wasn’t at fault. His intercession moved Heaven, released revelation, and impacted the future of his people. Daniel shows us that intercession is persistent, sacrificial, and aligned with God’s heart.

The greatest example, though, is Jesus Christ, who ever lives to make intercession for us. He stands at the right hand of the Father as our Advocate and High Priest. And as His followers, we are invited into that same ministry—to join Jesus in standing in the gap for families, communities, and nations. Intercession isn’t for a select few; it’s a calling for every believer.
