What is Intercessory Prayer?
It is praying with the real hope and
real intent that God would step in and act for the good of some specific
person(s) or situation. It is trusting that God will act, even if it's
not in the manner or timing we seek. God wants us to ask, even urgently.
It is casting our weakness before God's strength, and (at its best)
having a bit of God's passion burn in us.
We believe that prayer is vital to our
personal as well as corporate growth and as such we exist to provide
opportunities to pray and to stir up prayer in our congregation.
Throughout history God has ordained prayer as the means through which He
does His work.
