The Pavilion Church Intercessory Prayer Team is here to pray and intercede for you.
WE BELIEVE IN THE POWER OF PRAYER
The bible says the prayer of a righteous person is powerful and effective, yet something extraordinary happens when two or more agree together in the in prayer. In Matthew 18:19 Jesus said, "If any two of you agree as touching any matter on this earth, it SHALL be done." Post your prayer request and believe that God is going to move mightily for you as we join together believing and declaring God's Word over your life.
What is Intercession?
“First of all, then, I urge that supplications, prayers, intercessions, and thanksgivings be made for all people.” 1 Timothy 2:1
Intercession is defined as the prayers offered for others as directed and energized by the Holy Spirit. It is when we stand between others and God to plead on their behalf in the Spirit.
“Praying at all times in the Spirit, with all prayer and supplication. To that end keep alert with all perseverance, making supplication for all the saints.” Ephesians 6:18
“But you, beloved, build yourselves up in your most holy faith; pray in the Holy Spirit.” Jude 1:20
The Word tells us that God is looking for even one to
“stand in the gap.”
In the Bible, there were many intercessors who plead for individuals, families, cities, and nations. When God intended to destroy a nation, Moses “stood before Him in the breach.” “Therefore he said he would destroy them– had not Moses, his chosen one, stood in the breach before him, to turn away his wrath from destroying them.” Psalm 106:23
Everyone has a constant, perpetual intercessor in the person of Christ, who “ever lives to make intercession for them.” “Consequently, he is able to save to the uttermost those who draw near to God through him, since He always lives to make intercession for them.” Hebrews 7:25
Intercession is the most rewarding and deeply satisfying service that we can engage in as we link our weak, powerless lives with His all-powerful life. We must recognize that God will not work without intercession and there must be intercessors.
“And I sought for a man among them who should build up the wall and stand in the breach before me for the land, that I should not destroy it, but I found none. Therefore I have poured out my indignation upon them. I have consumed them with the fire of my wrath. I have returned their way upon their heads, declares the Lord GOD.” Ezekiel 22:30-31
