Prayer to Repent for Ungodly Intercession

Paul L. Cox

While ministering in Ashville, North Carolina, a woman complained about knee pain. As an intercessor prayed for her, a connection was made between the knee pain and the woman’s burden for intercession. The woman acknowledged that she was drawing her identity from being an intercessor, and that she must be in constant prayer for a wayward son. She could not rest since the prayer burden she was carrying was heavy.

During the prayer session, the Lord took the woman back to a memory where she had been violated as a little girl. The four-year old little girl was hiding, afraid of men, and wasn’t interested in meeting Jesus. Finally the four-year old realized that Jesus was safe, and she could invite Him into her place of hiding. As she did, Jesus came, healed her and cleansed her. A turning point was made when the four-year old and Jesus played together, and she was willing to let Jesus hold her dolly. She realized that as he could trust Jesus to care for her dolly, she could trust Jesus to care for her son. She understood that the Lord loved her son even more than she did. She gave the Lord her son and other burdens of prayer that she had been carrying. They prayed that the Lord would break off all ungodly attachments to the knees associated with ungodly intercession that was based on striving and works. Her knee pain left as she gave her prayer burdens to God, came into His rest, and trusted Him with all her concerns. It was out of this experience that the ungodly intercession prayer was birthed.

I choose to do right, to seek justice, encourage the oppressed, defend the cause of the fatherless, and plead the case of the widow.

I acknowledge that Your desire was to strengthen my feeble knees, but my attitude and prayers hindered me.

Lord forgive me for not exalting Your in prayer as the Lord to Whom every knee should bow. I repent for myself and my ancestors for prolonged kneeling, self abasement, flagellation, and striving in prayers way beyond the leading of Your Holy Spirit, so that we could boast of our prayers. I repent for not strengthening the weak hands and feeble knees of others.

I repent and renounce for myself and my generational line for praying out of a place of disunity with Your body and for praying out of a heart filled with selfish desires, envy, and jealousy that has caused me to miss the mark.

I choose to forgive all those including the body of Christ who shut down and limited the creativity in me as a worshipper and an intercessor. I choose to recognize and bless the creative arts in others as the word of God in the anointing of truth.
