The document discusses the power and importance of intercessory prayer. It provides biblical examples and quotes from Ellen G. White to support the following key points: 1) Intercessory prayer is recommended in the Bible and can have positive impacts for those being prayed for as well as the one praying. 2) God is willing to hear our prayers and grant what we are praying for according to His will. 3) Heavenly beings such as angels are attentively waiting to act in favor of God and His cause in response to prayers. 4) Engaging in intercessory prayer on behalf of others is beneficial both for them and for our own spiritual growth and relationship with God.
