Prayer Series XVI

As previously stated, until we further note I will be posting from Reformed Reflections on the Lord’s Prayer.

Today we continue with The Ingredients of Prayer

Supplication

To supplicate is to humbly petition, beg or entreat.

J.M.B.

Christ, in the days of His flesh, offered up prayers and supplications to His Father . . . [they] were joined with strong cries and tears, herein setting us an example.

Matthew Henry

Supplications are those petitions we make to God for obtaining that which is good.

Thomas Manton

Bible Proof Texts: 1 Kings 8:22-53, Ephesians 6:18, Hebrews 5:7.
