Daniel 10
There are references throughout the Bible that talk about prayer; how to pray, when to pray, and stories where prayer makes a difference. Many points specifically talk about intercession. The Bible is filled with intercessory prayer from the very beginning. Moses, Daniel, Hezekiah, and Nehemiah all interceded on behalf of the people and God responded, forgave their sin, and helped them. One example is in Daniel 10, where Daniel was fasting and praying on behalf of the people. After three weeks, an angel comes and says, ‘Right away your prayers were heard by God.’
