Ephesians 6:18 tells us to pray in the Spirit on all occasions with all kinds of prayers and requests, which got me thinking about the word supplication…a type of prayer you don’t hear about often today. Supplication is an earnest and humble appeal, plea, or petition for compassion, mercy, and kindness from the Lord. When Paul wrote about putting on the whole armor of God in Ephesians 6:10-20 he added prayer as one more offensive weapon in the Believer’s arsenal. And while Jesus was here on earth He established a pattern of prayer in the lives of His disciples which they continued to follow closely. (Acts 1:14) We truly have no idea what the power of our prayers possess. And when we have no words… there is still heartfelt supplication before the Lord, who hears our despondent cries for mercy.
