Answered in 2 sources
The Bible emphasizes the importance of intercessory prayer, where believers pray for others, showcasing care and dependence on God.
Intercessory prayer is an essential practice in the life of a Christian, as exemplified by the Apostle Paul in Ephesians 3:14-19. Paul prays for the Ephesians, illustrating that prayer is not solely about oneself but also about the needs of others. This act of praying for others reflects the heart of Christ who intercedes for us at the right hand of the Father. Through intercessory prayer, believers express their care and seek God's help for those they love, trusting that He can provide what they cannot provide for themselves.
