My life as a prayer intercessor

As an intercessor, June Freudenberg has seen God move as ground is taken through prayer. In a recent Limitless Leaders podcast, she told Tim Alford some stories from her life of intercession.

Praying at ... Kensington Temple

June served as prayer co-ordinator at Kensington Temple – a time where she learned to pray and lead prayer teams.

“One morning at Kensington Temple, the preacher caught my eye – he knew I was praying during the meeting – and put his hands very briefly into an attitude of prayer. I knew he meant me to pray, and I knew there was something happening I couldn’t see.

“I really increased my prayer effort. I didn’t know that there was somebody in the congregation who could ‘see’ spiritual things. Later, they said they saw demonic spirits attacking the speaker so he could hardly speak. Then suddenly the spirits got thrown off.

“When you really pray and take hold of God in faith you are standing in the role of intercessor on behalf of the person you’re praying for.”

Praying at ... Notting Hill Carnival

June lived in Notting Hill at the time its annual carnival was dogged by violence and rioting. She was determined to transform the situation through prayer.

“The Notting Hill Carnival at one stage was really riotous and violent. There were usually some deaths.

“I lived in the area, so I knew what it was like. You didn’t know whether your house was going to be invaded, whether you would have a riot come past, your windows broken.”
