    Intercession


    The charism of intercession is the special grace of praying faithfully and consistently for the needs of others for an extended period of time. They know and believe prayer can overcome great obstacles. The Holy Spirit bestows this gift as one feels called to be instantly in prayer for a person or situation. Traits include having confidence that God acts in response to our prayers, being patient and persistent in prayer through all situations, even when change is not evident.
     
    The gift of intercession operates from a place of responsibility to pray continually for people and situations with the knowledge that prayers will be answered.  Just as we ask for the intercession of the Saints because of their closeness to Jesus. Those with the gift of intercession on earth have a close relationship with Jesus and become a link between God and those in need of prayer. 
     
    We are all called to pray for one another. However, some are given an extraordinary gift of intercession. Being awakened in the middle of the night, with the instant sense to pray for someone/something can be a sign of this charism. This gift becomes more powerful when several people gather to join in prayer for another.
