“According to Webster, intercede means ‘to go or pass between; to act between
parties with a view to reconcile those who differ or contend; to mediate or
make intercession; mediation.
As can be clearly seen from these
definitions, the concept of intercession can be summarized as mediating, going
between, pleading for another, representing one party to another for, but not
limited to, legal situations.
Intercession happens in our
courts daily with lawyers interceding for clients…It involves delegation. It
involves authority. It boils down to representation…God told Adam what He
wanted and Adam re-presented Him to the rest of the earth. Adam was a
go-between for God. Literally, Adam was God’s intercessor or mediator on the
earth.”

DEFINING INTERCESSION - Taken from Dutch
Sheets’ book, Intercessory Prayer (pgs 37, 38)
“Now I beg you, brethren, through the Lord Jesus Christ, and
through the love of the Spirit, that you strive together with me in your
prayers to God for me.”
(Ro. 15:30)
