Prayer Angels

Leader: Elizabeth Asmussen

 

“Therefore confess your sins to each other and pray for each other so that you may be healed.  The prayer of the righteous person is powerful and effective” (James 5:16)

 

Prayer Angels work in partnership with God with intercessory prayer.  Intercessory prayer is important because Jesus Christ taught it, lived it and died on the cross for this grace.  Intercessory prayer is not a petition to change God's mind or get God to focus on an unknown problem, it is the mystery of God's grace to release healing power through the request of one who prays for others.  That call for intercession goes to and through God, is multiplied by the love of God in Jesus Christ, and ultimately flows into the life of the person who is the subject of intercession.
