Intercessory Prayer

“INTERCESSORY prayer is prayer in its highest form. It is utterly altruistic. It takes a man out of himself, and relates him in a vital, practical way to the life of the world around him. When a man prays continually for himself, it is easy for him to pass over from self-interest to selfishness; but when he prays for others, he is delivered from selfishness. And no man has a right to pray for himself alone, any more than he has a right to live for himself alone.”
