Prayer For Others Intercession

Lord, your word says I can come boldly to the throne of grace and obtain mercy and find grace to help in time of need (Hebrew 4:16). Therefore, having this assurance, I pray for those who are hurting and have experienced loss and are in mourning. But God, You know every tear, wound, hurt and joy because there are seasons under heaven (Ecclesiastes 3:1-8). So, Lord will you heal the wounds and broken hearts of those in mourning? Will you send your peace, love, and presence? Father, draw near to your son/daughter as they face times of loss and hopelessness. Let them see your footprints during their trials and tests, knowing that it was then you carried them.
Amen


Our Father, which are in heaven hallowed is Your Name. The Thy Kingdom come. Thy will be done in earth, as it is in heaven. I thank you that you have chosen me to pray for others. But first, create in me a clean heart oh Lord and renew a right spirit within me so that my prayers for others will not be obstructed.

Lord, please protect those whose lives have been wrongfully taken away by the cruel acts of this world. You said in Your Word that you love justice (Isaiah 61:8). Therefore, bring truth to those who do evil. In Jesus Name. Amen.


We pray for those who might be considered fallen by those around them: may they know your restoration and grace. Help us to not judge or exclude your beloved children, but instead lift them up in prayer, and embrace them with the grace we know in Christ.

Thank you, loving Father God, for hearing our prayer.
We proclaim together:


We pray for those who feel forgotten and unseen, may they know that they are remembered and seen by you God.

Help us to partner with you to remember the forgotten.

Search our hearts to reveal those we hide our faces from, the outcast, the stranger or the homeless. Change our hearts, that we may turn our faces towards these people and see them as your beloved children.


I pray for the lost, the hurting, the lonely, the sick, the bereaved, and those who are imprisonedbehind both visible and invisible walls. Send your comfort, your peace, and your calming presence to those who are without hope. Protect the defenseless, and hold them close to your heart. I pray for laborers to tell the good news of Jesus to people around our world. Jesus, my heart cries out for persecuted believers, too. Make them brave, and give them your powerful protection. I pray you will bring swift justice to those who want to destroy the innocent and those who carry your name. Bind the power of Satan, and strengthen believers everywhere.

So many needs, Jesus, but you are adequate for every need. Your name is powerful, and your power is great. So it's in your name that I prayand believe.
Amen


Lord Jesus, I come to you today and thank you for the privilege of praying for others. I've been the recipient of others' prayers so often, I understand how powerful intercessory prayer can be. I ask you first to cleanse my heart and show me if there is any unconfessed sin in my own life so that my prayers for others will not be hindered. I thank you that through your name, I can come boldly before you and pray with confidence, according to your will and know that you hear me.


O God, who manifest your almighty power
above all by pardoning and showing mercy,
bestow, we pray, your grace abundantly upon us
and make those hastening to attain your promises
heirs to the treasures of heaven.
Through our Lord Jesus Christ, your Son,
who lives and reigns with you in the unity of the Holy Spirit,
one God, for ever and ever.
R. Amen.


Look upon us, O God,
Creator and ruler of all things,
and, that we may feel the working of your mercy,
grant that we may serve you with all our heart.
Through our Lord Jesus Christ, your Son,
who lives and reigns with you in the unity of the Holy Spirit,
one God, for ever and ever.
R. Amen.
