Intercession

Intercession refers to the act of intervening or mediating on behalf of someone else, particularly in prayer or advocacy. In a religious context, it often involves asking a divine figure to help or support someone in need, like praying for a friend’s health. In broader terms, intercession can occur in various settings, such as in legal matters, where a lawyer might advocate for a client's interests. Essentially, it embodies the idea of supporting or enhancing another person's situation through direct involvement or prayerful request.
