Which term means a prayer on behalf of someone else?

• A. Last Supper
• B. Intercession
• C. Covenant
• D. Genesis

Answer: (B)

Intercession is praying on behalf of someone else. The idea here is recognizing a term for presenting another person’s needs before God—lifting them up in prayer, asking for help, mercy, guidance, or blessings for them. In many Christian practices, intercessory prayer is common during services or in personal devotion, where believers pray for family, friends, leaders, or people in need. This term specifically captures that act of standing in the gap for others through prayer, rather than praying for oneself or discussing beliefs in a general sense.

The other options don’t fit the meaning. The Last Supper refers to a specific meal Jesus shared with his disciples. A covenant is a formal agreement or promise between God and people. Genesis is the first book of the Bible.
