Intercessory prayer can, in my life, take several forms. One way I pray is a kind of casual "Lord bless ________" and "Bless _____________". I've also spent time really getting down to what the needs of the person I'm praying for are.
Recently, I was struck that intercessory prayer while it is often serious can also be joyful. As I pray for people, I'm joyful because I know that there is no other real solution for them than Christ--and just the simple act of praying Christ's spirit into their lives is a step in the right direction. It's joyful because I can trust that God is working in my life and my friends' life, and it's exciting to see what He can and will do for us.
