The explanation comes up when you Google. What else do you want to know? Or why do you want to know? is no doubt the more important question. Questions are mostly always about you, not the thing in question.

you're praying for others (Ezekiel 22:30 So I sought for a man among them who would make a wall, and stand in the gap before Me on behalf of the land, that I should not destroy it; but I found no one).

Standing in the gap prayers are not as simple as just praying for others, they are said on ' behalf of others ' who are unable to pray for themselves or unwilling to pray. They are called ' Intercesssion prayers ', said for those who are lost.

You'll certainly need gap prayers if you slip through the gap....

Yikes.

Practice gap prayers only if the person asks you to. Otherwise it's horribly pretentious.

I have but only if they asked me to. You do what you feel is right for you, as long as you don't hurt others
