Intercession Ministry

intercession ministry

Intercession may be the ultimate ministry in God’s plan of salvation. Jesus forever lives to make intercession for us (Heb 7:25). He lived a simple life in Nazareth for thirty years and had a public ministry for three years. And now He has been interceding for us for almost two thousand years. That may tell us something of the inestimable importance of intercession.

The Church teaches that the intercession of the saints in heaven is “their most exalted service to God’s plan”— no matter how great was their work on earth.

One of many kinds of prayer is the prayer of petition. Intercession is a form of petition. It is petitioning God in the place of another person (see Ez 22:30, 13:5; Ps 106:23;). Intercession implies that a person is unable or unwilling to petition God on his own behalf (Rm 8:26) and that the Lord sometimes permits us to substitute for others in prayer. Because God has given us authority (Gn 1:28) that He will not usurp, and because He will not usually impose His blessings on us, intercession makes a great difference. We don’t receive because we don’t ask (Jas 4:3). Intercession often is the difference between life and death, war and peace, healing or sickness, success or failure.

Protestants, Catholics, evangelicals, and charismatics all agree that intercession is God’s urgent call to His people at this moment in history. Some maintain that Jesus’ mother Mary has been repeatedly sent during this century to encourage us to intercede. We may be on the threshold of a golden age of intercession. Let us intercede to the maximum.
