With intercession, I have been trying to figure out how to prevent prayer from becoming redundant and repetitive. At times I just get in a rut where I'm praying the same things for the same people. Though the things I pray for are not bad things, on the contrary they are great things, the "O" Antiphons gave me inspiration and reminded me or exactly what I should be praying for when interceding for others. Here are some of the BEAUTIFUL ways we can be praying for others:
Come and show your people the way to salvation.
Stretch out your mighty hand to set us free.
Come, let nothing keep you from coming to our aid.
Break down the prison walls of death for those who dwell in darkness and the shadow of death; and lead your captive people into freedom.
Come, shine on those who dwell in darkness and the shadow of death.
Come and save the creature you fashioned from the dust.
Come and set us free, Lord our God.
This reminds me to pray for God to come, heal, show his people how to receive salvation, not delay, save us, and set us free.
Awesome
