Intercessory prayer for enemies and evildoers is an advanced prayer practice that has received little attention in the church even though it is attested in scripture and examples can be found in the Christian mystical tradition. Fifteen biblical texts support this form of prayer. Prayers from four mystics were examined. Six principles were developed: (1) Love is the essential attitude of intercession; (2) Reconciliation and forgiveness are goals; (3) Blessings are appropriate petitions; (4) Patience is required in intercession; (5) Context influences the nature of petitions; (6) Intercession is an act of mediation. an intercessory prayer workshop was developed.
