Intercede for Others
Colossians 1:9 For this cause we also, since the day we heard it, do not cease to pray for you, and to desire that ye might be filled with the knowledge of his will in all wisdom and spiritual understanding;
Praying for others is a very important God-given Christian mandate. As much as we have issues to discuss with God in prayer, there are some people we are duty bound to pray for, because we are not saved and empowered for ourselves alone.
However, this is an uphill task, if we don't have a Prayer altar, If we constantly meet with God in prayers, it will eventually become a habit. Keep your altar of prayer with fresh Holy fire.
The church prayed for Peter while in prison, and he was freed, Paul requested that the church pray for him, Abraham intercedes for Sodom and Gomarah, Jesus instructs that we pray for our leaders.
There is no basis for egocentric prayer, pray for tour family members, relatives, neighbours, Gospel ministers, mission fields, the sick etc.
As God sent intercessor, identify those you are to pray for and stay committed to praying for them.
You have an intercessory assignment on everyone around you. Can God depend on you?
The Holy spirit is interceding for the Saint, the Lord Jesus Christ is also doing same, why will you not start today?
You prayer is needed somewhere... Start interceding.
God bless you.

1. Lord thank you for a new day like this in Jesus name.

3. Lord, give me the undying love for others even when it seems difficult in Jesus name.
