What Is Intercession
We often use the word “intercession” as a synonym for “prayer.” In ordinary conversation it is acceptable to use the words interchangeably, but not when we are dealing with them as technical terms. Prayer, generally speaking, means talking to God. Intercession is coming to God on behalf of another. All intercession is prayer, but not all prayer is intercession. “Intercession” is derived from the Latin inter, meaning “between” and cedere, meaning “to go.” Intercession then, is going between or standing in the gap.  Though Ezekiel the prophet, the Lord says, “I sought for a man among them who would make a wall, and stand in the gap, before Me on behalf of the land, that I should not destroy it; but I found no one.” This is a clear reference to intercession. “Intercession is the act of pleading by one who in God’s sight has the right to do so in order to obtain mercy for one in need.” This makes the important point that the standing of the person before God qualifies or disqualifies the potential intercessor.
