The Petitions

by PamFord Davis  
5/05/2020 / Devotionals

Have you ever signed your name to a petition?

Many people take part in written petitions. They might have a grievance or want an elected official recalled. Some may have signed only because they were asked by someone outside a mall or Superstore.

Petitions are a formal way of making a request to someone with authority.

Jehovah God is the supreme authority.

We petition Him through prayer.

“Finally, be strong in the Lord and in the strength of His might. Put on the full armor of God, so that you will be able to stand firm against the schemes of the devil.  For our struggle is not against flesh and blood, but against the rulers, against the powers, against the world forces of this darkness, against the spiritual forces of wickedness in the heavenly places. Therefore, take up the full armor of God, so that you will be able to resist in the evil day, and having done everything, to stand firm. Stand firm therefore, having girded your loins with truth, and having put on the breastplate of righteousness, and having shod your feet with the preparation of the gospel of peace; in addition to all, taking up the shield of faith with which you will be able to extinguish all the flaming arrows of the evil one. And take the helmet of salvation, and the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God.

With all prayer and petition pray at all times in the Spirit, and with this in view, be on the alert with all perseverance and petition for all the saints (Ephesians 6:10-18 NASB).”

Through persistent prayer; we petition God on behalf of the saints (His children).
