KUCHING — Catholic faithful in Kuching and beyond, including outside of Malaysia, will have a great opportunity of participating in an international-level training on prophetic intercession, which will be conducted by a renowned international speaker from India, Chevalier Cyril John.
The training, organised by the Archdiocesan Charismatic Renewal Team (ACRT) of Kuching Archdiocese, will be held in the Grand Hall of the Archdiocesan Curia and Cathedral Pastoral Centre (ACCPC), St Joseph Cathedral, Kuching, Sarawak from 21–25 November 2024. Sessions will be in English and live translations into Bahasa Malaysia will be available for all sessions.
According to Chevalier Cyril John, there is a great need for Catholics to realise the important role of intercession, especially prophetic intercession, and to raise up more prophetic intercessors as God’s watchmen, sentries and prayer warriors.
Due to this great and urgent need, a Commission for Intercession has been established in CHARIS International, with Chevalier Cyril John as the Coordinator.
The training will provide very solid teaching and inputs on understanding intercession, particularly understanding the differences between traditional intercession and prophetic intercession.
In traditional intercession we pray for peoples’ needs and petitions, but in prophetic intercession we learn to listen to the Holy Spirit on God’s will with regards to peoples’ petitions before we pray. With the help of the Holy Spirit, we can also listen to God’s burdens and petitions and intercede for Him according to His prayer strategy. In order to know how to pray effectively through prophetic intercession, a person needs to receive a proper training.
Pope Francis has bestowed on Cyril John the Title of Chevalier (Knight of the Order of St Gregory the Great) in 2021, the fourth highest Papal order in the Equestrian Order of St Gregory the Great. The title has been given for his distinguished service to the Church at the diocesan, national, continental, and international level, especially through the Catholic Charismatic Renewal.
Chevalier Cyril John has been travelling all around the world to train Catholics to be prophetic intercessors.
The training is open to all and is not exclusive for certain people with certain ‘spiritual gifts’ but for all Catholics who have a call to intercession.
