최근 읽은 말씀과 교회 설교를 통해서 예수님의 believers 를 위한 중보기도, 성령님의 중보기도, 또 믿음의 조상의 중보기도를 재발견.
예수님과 성령님의 기도, 또 수천년전부터의 믿음의 조상들의 기도가 우리를 지탱하고 있는, 보이지 않는 세계를 의식한다.
시편 102 편처럼, 우리 또한 future generation, 심지어는 아직 '창조'되지 않은 이들을 위해서 기도해야 하지 않을까?
하기야 The Blessing 찬양에도 대충 그런 내용이 조금 포함되지...

예수님/성령님의 중보기도
Romans 8:34
who is he that condemns? Christ Jesus, who died - more than that, who was raised to life - is at the right hand of God and is also interceding for us
Hebrews 7:25
therefore he is able to save completely those who come to God through him, because he always lives to intercede for them
John 17:20-26
Jesus Prays for All Believers
20 “My prayer is not for them alone. I pray also for those who will believe in me through their message, 21 that all of them may be one, Father, just as you are in me and I am in you. May they also be in us so that the world may believe that you have sent me. 22 I have given them the glory that you gave me, that they may be one as we are one— 23 I in them and you in me—so that they may be brought to complete unity. Then the world will know that you sent me and have loved them even as you have loved me.
24 “Father, I want those you have given me to be with me where I am, and to see my glory, the glory you have given me because you loved me before the creation of the world.
25 “Righteous Father, though the world does not know you, I know you, and they know that you have sent me. 26 I have made you[e] known to them, and will continue to make you known in order that the love you have for me may be in them and that I myself may be in them.”
Romans 8:26-27
26 In the same way, the Spirit helps us in our weakness. We do not know what we ought to pray for, but the Spirit himself intercedes for us through wordless groans. 27 And he who searches our hearts knows the mind of the Spirit, because the Spirit intercedes for God’s people in accordance with the will of God.
믿음의 조상의 중보기도 (더 많은 reference 가 있겠지만 최근 읽은 시편 102)
시편 102:18-22...28 - Daniel, Jeremiah or Nehemiah
18 Let this be written for a future generation,
that a people not yet created may praise the Lord:
19 “The Lord looked down from his sanctuary on high,
from heaven he viewed the earth,
20 to hear the groans of the prisoners
and release those condemned to death.”
21 So the name of the Lord will be declared in Zion
and his praise in Jerusalem
22 when the peoples and the kingdoms
assemble to worship the Lord.
....
28 The children of your servants will live in your presence;
their descendants will be established before you.”
