Protection for intercessors

Inspire and encourage us to pray.  Let this time with you be an addictive pleasure and source of abundant life.    Flow through us to accomplish your will and bring your kingdom reign into this world today. 

Thank you, Lord, for humble heroes who have set the bar high.  Thank you for saints who have laid the foundational examples of what a prayer life can be and what we can accomplish through prayer.  Lord, raise up another generation with great intercessors like Andrew Murray, Reese Howell, Brother Lawrence, Watchman Nee and David Yonggi Cho.  Raise up intercessors who will change nations and the course of history. 

Protect your intercessors from the attacks of the enemy.  Be their shield and strong tower.  Protect and defend those who fall on their knees to serve you in prayer.  Cover them with your glory and refresh them as they grow weary.  Bless your intercessors and reward them richly.

Holy Spirit, fill us with the gifts of discernment, wisdom and knowledge.  Teach us to pray directly at the source.  Cause our prayers to be effectual and fervent.

Father, would you ward off the distractions and interfering elements that tug us away from your presence.  Give us a singleness of heart and mind that is center around you.  Help us to be focused on you alone.
