Show Notes

This week Brooklyn and Karen tackle the topic of intercession. Through intercessory prayer, we enter into the battle with another. We help each other bear burdens by praying. They dive into what it means to pray “in Jesus’ name” and how that relates to authority and abiding. Get ready, because this is an exciting task that has been set before us as we have all been called to intercede.

  1. Jesus is our Great High Priest (see Hebrews 4:14-16). What does that mean in regards to our prayers?
  2. Our prayers affect things. Does it excite you or scare you to know that you can partner with God? Have you considered the fact that our prayers are powerful or that you have authority?
  3. What does it mean to pray in Jesus’ name?
  4. We are hoping to affect the life of someone else, but every time we pray, we are being changed. How has prayer changed you?
  5. Listening and abiding are vital elements to intercessory prayer. How are you doing at abiding?
  6. 1 Peter 2:5 tells us we are all priests. Intercession is for all of us. Who is it easiest to intercede for? 
  7. Intercession often means we pray for the long haul. How can you discipline yourself to persist? How can you encourage each other to persist?
  8. Can you tell a story of a time when someone’s prayers on your behalf affected your life?
  9. Share a prayer request and commit to praying for each other this week.
  10. Get brave and pray for each other before you leave your time together.
