AI OVERVIEW: Intercession begins with awareness of another person’s needs and abandonment of all self-interest, with God placing specific people on a believer’s heart, including those who are not yet saved. It often requires agonizing, bearing the hurts of others, weeping before God, and praying with deep compassion, sometimes for parents praying for children moving toward danger. Authority with God comes from living in holiness and obedience, so prayer is backed by Scripture promises and God’s response to intercession, not a plea from a beggar. The intercessor wears the armor of God, prays persistently, and remains accountable to God; the law of intercession—asking God to do for another only if willing to let Him do through us—applies, and sometimes speaking to the person is needed.
