What is Intercessory Prayer

Sometimes people ask me about intercessory prayer.  What is intercessory prayer?  Is it as good as “out load prayers?”

Quite simply, intercessory prayer is the act of praying on behalf of others.  The role of mediator in prayer was prevalent in the Old Testament. (As in Abraham, Moses, David, Samuel, Hezekiah, Elijah, Jeremiah, Ezekiel and Daniel). But Christ is pictured in the New Testament as the ultimate intercessor, and because of this all Christian prayer becomes intercession since it is offered to God through and by Christ.  Jesus closed the gap between us and God when He died on the cross. He was the greatest mediator (intercessor ) that ever lived.  Because of this we can now intercede in prayer on behalf of others according to his will.  “For there is one God and one mediator between God and men, the Man Christ Jesus.”
