Everyone is welcome to join us every Monday evening to intercede in prayer for others. Many people use the words “prayer” and “intercession” interchangeably. And though they both have things in common, they are not exactly the same thing.
Prayer, simply put, is talking to God. We can give Him praise, we can cry out to Him, we can ask Him questions and lift up our cares. Praying to our Heavenly Father grows our understanding of and strengthens our relationship with Him.
Intercession happens when we reach beyond ourselves and our needs in prayer. When we feel a burden for someone else, we can be encouraged to bring that to the Lord, stand on their behalf, and seek His Will for their lives.
