The Power of Prophetic Intercession: Partnering with Heaven in Prayer

Writer's picture: Iris LeonIris Leon

 

Prophetic intercession is more than just praying for needs—it's about partnering with heaven to release God's plans and purposes on earth. When we engage in prophetic intercession, we align our hearts with the will of God and declare His kingdom on earth as it is in heaven.


What is Prophetic Intercession?

Prophetic intercession involves praying under the leading of the Holy Spirit, speaking out prophetic words, and making decrees based on what God is revealing. It goes beyond traditional prayers by actively listening for God's voice and partnering with His plans.


  • Scripture: Ezekiel 22:30 – “I looked for someone among them who would build up the wall and stand before me in the gap on behalf of the land so I would not have to destroy it, but I found no one.”


The Role of the Prophetic Intercessor

  1. Standing in the Gap: Prophetic intercessors stand in the gap for individuals, communities, and nations, calling for God’s mercy and intervention.

    • Scripture: 1 Timothy 2:1 – “I urge, then, first of all, that petitions, prayers, intercession and thanksgiving be made for all people.”

  2. Releasing Heaven's Decrees: Through prophetic intercession, we release the decrees of heaven on earth, speaking life, healing, and deliverance over situations.

    • Scripture: Matthew 18:18 – “Truly I tell you, whatever you bind on earth will be bound in heaven, and whatever you loose on earth will be loosed in heaven.”

  3. Discerning the Times: Prophetic intercessors often discern times and seasons, helping the Church respond to what God is doing in the earth.

    • Scripture: 1 Chronicles 12:32 – “...men of Issachar, who understood the times and knew what Israel should do...”


Resources for Further Study:

  • Book Recommendation: “Prophetic Intercession: Letting God Lead Your Prayers” by Barbara Wentroble.

  • Scripture Study: Daniel 9, focusing on Daniel’s prophetic intercession for his people.
