Reading Time: 3 minutes

It is now up to the Body of Christ to step up.

WHAT IF we mobilize a mighty intercessory prayer army to storm the gates of heaven on behalf of the voters of these states?

If God has chosen to pronounce judgment on our nation and let it fall under the weight of its own wicked devices, then so be it. We can rest in Him knowing that we left it all on the battlefield.

The prayer strategy is simple. Join us in praying through the prayer petitions below. Then, forward this  to at least 10 friends who are prayerfully concerned about this nation and the integrity of our electoral system.

The original distribution was to 20 prayer warriors. In only 6 generations of forwarding this letter, it has the potential to reach 20 million prayer warriors!

20 x 10 = 200

200 x 10 = 2,000

2,000 x 10 = 20,000

20,000 x 10 = 200,000

200,000 x 10 = 2,000,000

2,000,000 x 10 = 20,000,000

And this is the confidence we have toward Him, that if we seek anything according to His will, He hears us.(1 John 5:4)

Will You Join Us in Praying Over these FIVE STRATEGIC PRAYER POINTS and forwarding this to at least 10 other people who are prayerful concerned about our nation?

PRAYER POINT ONEExpose and hold accountable those who practice the seven things God hates and He says are detestable to Him:

According to Proverbs 6:16-17, There are six things the LORD hates, seven that are detestable to Him:

  1. haughty eyes
  2. a lying tongue
  3. hands that shed innocent blood
  4. a heart that devises wicked plans
  5. feet that are quick to rush into evil
  6. a false witness who pours out lies
  7. a person who stirs up conflict in the community

Heavenly Father, we humbly ask that in the battleground states of Pennsylvania, Michigan, Wisconsin, Georgia, North Carolina, Arizona, and Nevada please silence every lying tongue and convict the hearts of those who devise wicked plans intended to invalidate and nullify the expressed will of the voters. Stop those who would be quick to rush into evil. Expose and silence every false witness who utters lies and operates in deceit. Thwart the efforts of every person who attempts to stir conflict within their community.

PRAYER POINT TWOExpose all wickedness intended to steal, kill, and destroy the electoral process in these battleground states. 

Heavenly Father, we humbly ask that in the battleground states of Pennsylvania, Michigan, Wisconsin, Georgia, North Carolina, Arizona, and Nevada You “reveal deep and hidden things. You know what lies in darkness. Light dwells with You.” (Daniel 2:22) Please bring to light and expose every lie, deceit, deception, misrepresentation and illegal act intended to “steal, kill and destroy“ the electoral process and the expressed will of the citizens and these states. (John 10:10).

PRAYER POINT THREEFrustrate those who seek to steal, kill, and destroy electoral integrity and authentic, accurate vote counts in these battleground states.

Heavenly Father, please “frustrate the plotting of the shrewd so that their hands cannot perform their enterprise or attain success.” May no weapon formed intended to steal, kill, and destroy the authentic, accurate vote count and expressed will of the people in the battleground states of Pennsylvania, Michigan, Wisconsin, Georgia, North Carolina, Arizona, and Nevada “be allowed to prosper.” (Isaiah 54:17).

PRAYER POINT FOUR Frustrate and thwart the plans of those who attempt to sabotage the state’s election laws and subvert the expressed will of the people.

Heavenly Father, please “capture the wise by their own shrewdness and quickly thwart the advice of the cunning” (Job 5:12) whose intention is to sabotage and subvert state and federal election law and the expressed will of the people in the battleground states of Pennsylvania, Michigan, Wisconsin, Georgia, North Carolina, Arizona, and Nevada. “Hold them guilty O LORD, by their own devices let them fall.” (Psalm 5:10)

PRAYER POINT FIVEPsalm 5 for protection and favor for President Trump

Heavenly Father, please “give ear to President’ Trump’s words, O LORD, consider President Trump’s groaning. Heed the sound of his cry for help, his King and his God. For to you does he pray. In the morning O LORD, you will hear his voice; in the morning he will order his prayer to you and eagerly watch.

For you are not a God who takes pleasure in wickedness; no evil dwells with You. The boastful shall stand before Your eyes; you hate all who do iniquity. Destroy those who speak falsehood. You abhor the man of bloodshed and deceit.

Lord, please lead President Trump in Your righteousness; make his way straight before him. Let the guilty, O God, fall by their own devices! In the multitude of their transgressions thrust them out of power for they are rebellious against You. But let President Trump take refuge in You and be glad. Let him ever sing for joy. May you shelter him. May he who loves Your name exult in You. Bless President Trump, O LORD. Surround him with favor as with a shield.

Heavenly Father, please give supernatural wisdom, strength and discernment to the President and his advisors regarding how to navigate the road ahead.

In the Mighty Name of Jesus We Pray,

Amen

Prayer points from Rep. Michele Bachmann.

Heavenly Father, we pray for free and fair election results. We pray for the holy strength and will to do everything to stand and when all is done, keep standing. We pray for a host of angels to expose plots and plans of the enemy. We pray for justice and mercy for our country. We ask for the eyes of the people to be opened to the truth and not deceived by a biased media. We pray for supernatural wisdom for Trump’s legal team to discern evidence and present it convincingly. We ask for wise judges who will weigh the evidence presented fairly and rule accordingly.

Father, I know you are leading the nation and that you are in charge. I pray that you cover President Trump, his family and the administration. Give the President and his administration supernatural wisdom as you’ve done over these past few years. You have conquered all evil that has gone against him and I believe this time shall be no different. I pray that those who currently have their blinders on regarding the plans of the other party have, clarity and see the truth. You are King, my Lord, and I know your divine precious will, will prevail. Amen.

Philippians 3:13 One thing I do, forgetting those things which are behind, and reaching forth unto those things which are before, I press toward the mark—-
We must Pray that President Trump in his righteousness presses forward with the courts to find the corruption with the Democrats and their tampering with the voting process.
The News media and the Democrats subliminal negative hatred during President Trumps entire Presidency has corrupted our peoples minds. President Trump has stood up to this to his credit and we need him to lead our country on the path of righteousness. God Bless Him.

Lord Jesus, I pray for your mercy on this nation. Forgive us our many sins. Lord, I pray that Your people repent and turn back to You. Our eyes are on You as we don’t know what to do. The evil and corruption is taking over our nation. Lord, I pray that nothing hid will remain uncovered. I pray that You will continue to expose the evil and bring all things under Your submission. We pray for your will to be done in this election. Lord, we know that you lift up kings and nations and you remove kings and nations according to Your will. We know that You called Donald John Trump for such a time as this. We rebuke the powers of darkness and command the forces of evil to leave the borders of Our nation, which is dedicated to You, oh Lord. Our hope is in You, our Lord and Savior. In Jesus name, Amen
If it be Gods will. Ez21:27 I will overturn, overturn, overturn it: and it shall be no more, until he come whose right it is; and I will give it him.

Saints please Watch “Prophetic Dream 11/6/2020 | Hank Kunneman” on YouTube
https://youtu.be/h5Pm0EtLwfA. DO NOT ACCEPT A BIDEN PRESIDENCY EVER! I believe the Chicago downtown looting in July was a precursor to this election. To how they were going to get bogus ballots all over quickly. Regardless, we that love CHRIST and our President knew immediately that they had cheated and lied. Joe Biden was losing big time when the media stopped reporting the results. When they started back reporting, biden was almost holding all of the electoral votes. Remember Joshua and Caleb refused to accept the evil report of giants in the promised land. We must all speak to GOD that we shall believe the report of the LORD and continue thanking GOD for President Trump’s Victory! Do not look at or believe the media. They have lied on the President since he first announced his candidacy in 2015. Do not waver and believe when biden accepts. Keep praying and don’t doubt; and speak out loud that biden will NEVER be the President of the United States. FATHER GOD please encourage our President daily and expose every lie of satan to Rudy Giuliani and all of the President’s attorneys in JESUS MIGHTY Name! (Mark 22: 23 For verily I say unto you, That whosoever shall say unto this mountain, Be thou removed, and be thou cast into the sea; and shall not doubt in his heart, but shall believe that those things which he saith shall come to pass; he shall have whatsoever he saith.

24 Therefore I say unto you, What things soever ye desire, when ye pray, believe that ye receive them, and ye shall have them.

It is so discouraging to see so many people simply giving up and cursing the USA!! Daniel prayed and fasted for 21 days before anyone turned up in his bedroom to tell him that God had heard his prayers ON THE VERY FIRST DAY !! And the fight wasn’t even over yet! The messenger had to go back and battle the prince of persia AND the prince of greece with the Archangel Michael!! Given the depth, breadth, and scope of the attacks against Trump, and the colossal and EPIC voter fraud that’s already been uncovered – what rational person thinks the battle is over, just because it’s November 7th and they expected that it would be over by now !! I have news for all of you, it is NOT over until HE says it’s over, and HE says it is NOT over. The 21 people I tapped to pray with me are still breathing FIRE, Holy Spirit fire that will not be quenched by Media, by mere human pundits and squishy RINOS, by sheep bleating about fatigue because they’re having to wait in the fast food drive-up for their happy meal. Maybe I just need to eat a Snickers bar or maybe I’m just a blunt object, like my husband keeps telling me, but I’m mad at Hell and I have my heels so dug in they can see them in China.

To those through with prayer and fasting I have this to say. Be afraid. God didn’t stop pursing you.
Do you really think this is God’s will? God’s will is for good to overcome evil, not evil to overcome good. Only apathetic Christians make platitudes instead of fight for what is just.
God allows evil to continue because we as the church refuse to stop pretending that everything bad is His will. We are accountable for what we do or don’t do.
You can’t play ball if you are not in the game. And this game isn’t over yet. 1 KINGS chapter 1 talks about another individual who proclaimed himself King, but God took him down.
Keep praying, fasting and quit watching the news.

Today I heard testimony from a woman in Michigan involved in supervising the election in a 70 percent Republican district. She noticed the Republican vote was not normal, and looked into it. She was told that the computer software had a “glitch” that switched 6000 Republican votes to Democrat. This software was used in parts of Michigan, and other battleground states. My husband researched this further and learned that a general familiar with this software (McInerny)reports this software was used in our election. It (called The Hammer) was developed by the CIA to influence the elections in foreign dictatorships. Praying for justice, wisdom, and favor for the Trump administration and our nation. Praying our elections will be cleaned up across the country.

Dear Lord of Lords,
You do see trouble and grief and take it into hand.

Allow the fraud to be proven qui kly in the election battle ground states.

We have had alot of distress this year. Im asking through president Trump leadership there wont be more, but that we can hold onto our freedoms.

Convict the guilty and keep exposing all of them. Let it be known the investigations will be completed efficiently.

You want our trust, but we do not trust the biden leadership. Thankyou for taking them away! You dont want your people to live in fear of that socialism or communism or more lawlessness. We donot desserve your mercy O Lord,but we Thankyou for it.

I’ve prayed. I’ve fasted. I’ve walked neighborhoods in my city that I don’t live in and prayed that God would ‘unplug the ears, take the scales off the eyes, soften the hearts of the people to receive the truth about Jesus and respond to the tenets of life and justice.’ God has heard my prayers for the re-election of one who stands for life and justice. I am done praying.

God has heard my prayers and His answer is that He is moving toward overt judgment over the land. The stench of corruption and the lack of integrity in the body of believers has overwhelmed His nostrils.

It’s done. God has declared judgment on America as a whole. All of us have prayed, interceded, and voted. Time to come up with another battle plan. No repentance by nominal Christians. Not enough ‘real’ Christians who did seek God. So, prepare now for an unrecognizable America to take shape. Your rights of life, liberty, & happiness have been voted against. Prepare for a marked uptick in natural and unnatural disasters and violence and confusion everywhere. We will be assimilated under the communist umbrella per the one world organizers. The church will be forced underground. My thoughts moving forward…

    Kenneth, I understand that we all deserve God’s judgement, but I refuse to accept your godless forecast. Even IF your “prophecies” are correct, you fail to offer hope to those of us who trust God. He promises to never leave us nor forsake us. He makes ways where it seems impossible. Your negativity is not reflective of our Lord Jesus Christ.

    Hello Kenneth, Yes, I have repented, prayed, fasted, and walked the park and voting precincts in my district, but guess what? I am getting up, trusting, and standing on GOD’s Word. My Awesome GOD has something up His Majestic Shelve; a Trump card! Also, have I entered the courts of the LORD like in Daniel 7? I am going to petition the Righteous Judge. I believe a revival of GOD, and not of man will break out in America. The devil has overplayed his hand.

    Kenneth, this is not a time to speak judgement & defeat or to point the accusing finger. It is time to strike the arrow to the ground & declare, with God, the words that He has spoken over this nation & the world. January 21st will not see a new president. God has chosen President Trump to lead this nation for 2 terms. We walk by faith & not sight. Stay out of the media & their lies as the enemy shoots his fiery darts through these means & produces fears & despair. God has not given us a spirit of fear, but a Spirit of power, love & sound mind. God is going to bring the justice, that we have been crying out for, to this land & to the nations of this world. Haman will hang on the gallows that he has set for the righteous & the world will marvel as God brings a time of unprecedented Kingdom rule to this earth. I believe we will see the glory of our God covering the earth as His bride (church) becomes all she is meant to be in the earth. Just like the days of Adonijah, who set himself up as king when David had already promised his bride Bathsheba that Solomon would be king, so we must go before our king to remind Him of His promise so that He will rise up & put down the plans of the enemy. Don’t give up hope & be careful of what you say in these days. Don’t be in agreement with the plans of hell. God’s plan is for mercy to triumph over judgement & His kingdom rule on earth as it is in heaven.

May God show his power and glory for the sake of the America that was once founded on Christian values.

Blessings Fellow IFA Members,
I received a group email from the church I attend. I know that we as the Body of Christ should remain at peace and “be anxious for nothing,” (Pr 4:6).
I am still digesting results of election and trying to discern in my heart what God is saying to our nation and to me. I don’t feel “wounded” as the author states but admittedly I feel deflated. My spirit wants to hang on to any hope and glimmer of President Trump winning another term.
Just trying to resonate in my spirit if there was any unclear message to the church body. Perhaps I’m reading too much in it. I myself have never heard the pastor support any political party. He does share his views that Abortion is wrong. He has made mention after the last election, [that] “Trump was the lesser of the two evils.”
Share your thoughts.
Blessings To All!
(See below)

Loved Ones,
As we await final election results, let me encourage you to continue praying. I also wanted to forward this article to you from Lori Hatcher. I hope it blesses you and helps establish peace in our hearts.
I love you,

10 Reasons to Trust God with the Election Results
Lori Hatcher | Hope & Encouragement
*******************   
French poet Victor Hugo is quoted as saying, “And when you have laboriously accomplished your daily task, go to sleep in peace. God is awake.” 

If I were to choose a word to describe the recent election season, I’d choose the word laborious.

Angry tirades and scathing accusations have volleyed from one campaign to another like mortar fire during an armed conflict, and we the people have been wounded in the crossfire. We the church are weary, battle-scarred, and conflicted. 

Hugo was right; we have accomplished our laborious task, and on election night we’ll go to sleep, possibly uncertain about who our next president, governor, representative will be. Or perhaps the vote will clearly and decisively declare one candidate a winner—but not the one we hoped for.

Regardless, we can go to sleep in peace. God is awake.

He is not only awake, He is seated on His throne, reigning over the affairs of this earth with wisdom and justice.

Ten Reasons and a Thousand More

You can trust God if the election doesn’t turn out as you hoped for these ten reasons and a thousand more: 

1. God’s plans always prevail.

“I know that you [Lord] can do all things, and that no purpose of yours can
be thwarted” (Job 42:2).

“The counsel of the LORD stands forever, the plans of his heart to all generations” (Ps. 33:11).

2. In obedience to God, we vote, but God ultimately appoints our leaders.

“Let every person be subject to the governing authorities. For there is no authority except from God, and those that exist have been instituted by God. Therefore whoever resists the authorities resists what God has appointed, and those who resist will incur judgment” (Rom. 13:1–2). 

“The Most High rules the kingdom of men and gives it to whom he will and sets over it the lowliest of men” (Dan. 4:17)

3. Every ounce of power our leaders possess has been given to them by God.

“So Pilate said to him, “You will not speak to me? Do you not know that I have authority to release you and authority to crucify you?” Jesus answered him, “You would have no authority over me at all unless it had been given you from above”” (John 19:10–11).

4. Regardless of their platforms, God will direct our leaders where He wills, for His purposes.

“The king’s heart is a stream of water in the hand of the LORD; he turns it wherever he will” (Prov. 21:1).

5. God wants me to respect the authority of the office and pray for our leaders. 

“First of all, then, I urge that supplications, prayers, intercessions, and thanksgivings be made for all people, for kings and all who are in high positions, that we may lead a peaceful and quiet life, godly and dignified in every way” (1 Tim. 2:1–2).

6. God, not man, is the sovereign Ruler over nations and kingdoms. 

“O LORD, God of our fathers, are you not God in heaven? You rule over all the kingdoms of the nations. In your hand are power and might, so that none is able to withstand you” (2 Chron. 20:6).

7. God’s kingdom stands above America and every nation of the earth. When our nations are shaken, and the foundations shift, Christ’s kingdom remains immovable.

“Therefore let us be grateful for receiving a kingdom that cannot be shaken, and thus let us offer to God acceptable worship, with reverence and awe” (Heb. 12:28).

8. God’s kingdom will not only withstand attacks from ungodly leaders, it will triumph.

From Cyrus, the Babylonian king of the exile, to the baby-killing Herod, and the Christian-killing Nero, Christianity has never been bested, because our King’s power is not from this world. The Church Christ birthed when He rose from the dead doesn’t depend on qualified human leaders for its success.

“My kingdom is not of this world. If my kingdom were of this world, my servants would have been fighting, that I might not be delivered over to the Jews. But my kingdom is not from the world” (John 18:36).

9. Leaders come and leaders go. Governments rise and fall. Only God, His Word, and people live forever—and we will live forever.

Our first allegiance is to Christ, and then to the God-inspired Word, the Bible. This is our charter, and it never changes.

“Of the increase of his government and of peace there will be no end, on the throne of David and over his kingdom, to establish it and to uphold it with justice and with righteousness from this time forth and forevermore” (Isa. 9:7). 

“But our citizenship is in heaven, and from it we await a Savior, the Lord Jesus Christ” (Phil. 3:20).

10. Even “in exile,” Christians have a responsibility to the country in which we live. 

When the Israelites went into exile and captivity in Babylon, God didn’t exempt them from service just because they were living under pagan rule. They couldn’t throw up their hands and disengage. He gave them an assignment. Their assignment is our assignment, too.

“But seek the welfare of the city where I have sent you into exile, and pray to the LORD on its behalf, for in its welfare you will find your welfare” (Jer. 29:7).

Regardless of whether the election turns out as you had hoped (or even if it does), you can trust that God is fully in control. He will use all things, even a leader we’re not sure we want, for our good and His glory. And, one day soon, we’ll exchange our voter registration card for a passport, one that will take us to a new country, a better country, a country where every knee will bow and every tongue will confess that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father. 

Tuck that under your pillow, beloved. Rest well.

    C J, you cannot digest the “results of the election” when the certified results have not been announced. Of course God is over all and our allegiance is first and only to Him. But there are many lawsuits and hopefully credible investigations over massive voter fraud. Perhaps we are under His judgment, but until I see that He has turned us over to our own lusts, I will pray for justice for the evildoers and for the true winner of this election to be certified.

      Thank you Lori for your wise words. I continue to pray for President Trump and for a speedy & over-whelming win. I am hopeful that he is God’s choice for the next 4 years.

      Exactly! Jan. 20th isn’t here yet! 2.5 months is a long time. You can’t even remember what happened in August!

      Nothing is impossible with God.
      Sure, even Martha said [chastened], that Jesus could have MERELY healed Lazarus, had He come sooner.
      But Jesus was waiting. Until it became IMPOSSIBLE.
      “The people who were with him when he called Lazarus out of his grave, and raised him from the dead, bear record.” [John 12:17]
      We are here at this time, to bear record.

      So don’t be discouraged if it gets worse and becomes IMPOSSIBLE. I see a tug of war, back and forth. The time doesn’t run out until Jan 20th, so far.

      We’ve had 9 months of training for this! Be strong and courageous in your faith – as a light to others.
      You know what that means! A BIRTHING is taking place!
      Keep cheering on our Invincible God!
      It will be GLORIOUS!

    Just keep praying! Remember when JESUS said “could you not pray one hour?” Our President could not be winning before 1 am and later on those votes he definitely had was reported belonging to a very wicked man! President Trump is Not the lesser of 2 evils! He has stood for GOD every day of his Presidency! Saints if you get weary in well-doing, please keep it to yourself! May GOD speak to you. I know GOD for myself and HE is for President Trump! Remember GOD said HE will Bless them that Blesses Israel and curse them that curses Israel! The group that is claiming this lying victory would be part of them that cursed Israel and therefore are cursed by GOD! I never read in the Bible that GOD ever ignored HIS peoples cries of repentance and needing help! Daniel waited 21 days to see victory and never stopped believing! FATHER GOD please strengthen and encourage the weary to persevere and BELIEVE!

      Suzie, Thanks for your insightful comments. We live in such a fast-paced world that we want God to act in record timing. I am guilty of this. God’s plan & answers are always best, even when we don’t readily agree.God is able to do abundantly above all that we ask or imagine. Blessings!

Lord accept , I pray, the freewill offerings of my mouth…
Do not grant the desires of the wicked
Do not let them achive their goals
Otherwise they will become proud
– psalm 140:8

Give thanks to the nanmend of the Lord pray for the well Being of jerusalem..psalm 122:6
Show us favor lord show us favor for we’ve had more than enough contempt
Web had more than enough scorn from the arrogant and contempt for the proud
-psalm123:2-4

We wait for the lord ; we wait and put our hope in His word. More than watchmen in the morning

If I could add any one thing to the great prayers and encouraging words that Rep Bachman wrote here it would be this.. pray for a complete change in the voting process in our great nation. Pray for a uniformity through our nation to change and establish a more stable and accurate way to count our votes without changing the way our founders set up our way of voting. This has been on my mind for some years now but it has become a real burden during this week. I pray we can establish a better way to do this.. to bring honesty and integrity into our voting system throughout this land.

    Yes…to maintain our system of voting but improve the integrity of the counting and collecting of votes. 2020 has shown us that the wicked seek to cast doubt on all foundations of the land to destroy and attack all that has been built. if the foundations be destroyed what can the Righteous Do??? BUT, GOD SEES.

    I also ask that “proof of citizenship” be a requirement for voting and that voter ID cards once again be implemented. Also that we are to carry a voter ID card with our picture and signature on it. No more mail -in voting except for absentee, which has been requested ahead of time. Legal ballots have a mark that cannot be copied as our currency has so there are no more counterfeit ballots.

Lord, we pray together that the evil that is in our country seeking to destroy us will be exposed and defeated. We pray for God’s assignment to protect ancient foundations will be fulfilled. We pray for the physical safety of our president, Donald J. Trump, his family and all those in his administration who stand loyally beside him be free from harm. We pray that the prince of darkness that is attacking our country will be destroyed and that all the enemies of God and their evil plans will be struck down and our President Donald Trump will be triumphant in this election. We ask for these blessings on our nation in the name of Jesus Christ, Our Lord. Amen.

Lord – so many people, saved and unsaved, feel the weight and are crushed by the corruption we are witnessing. The people cry out to you in one voice. We need your sovereign hand of help. We cannot do this without your sword of truth and justice to assist us and lead us forward. Help us Father. Help our President, family,staff & his legal team. They, even more so than the people of this nation…know a great fraud and theft has been committed against not just this nation but against you Lord. There are many within this nation who know what they have done is wrong and they believe they have won through the use of deception. Show them Lord God that that is not true. That they cannot talk about true and trusted leadership – then willingly use and apply continual lies and theft.
We fall on our faces before you Lord. Save our nation. Let the weight of your full conviction fall on those who have plotted and helped this crime to be committed. Save those who have perpetrated these heinous acts of theft against the president and the people of this land.
Thank you God for hearing our cry. Let us see your Mighty Hand at work. In your name we pray…amen.

I shared with more than 10 Christian friends and I hope that everyone of them does the same.

Pour out Your Holy Spirit on our land, Lord God! We have complete confidence in YOU alone. Help us all to keep our eyes, ears, and hearts fixed on YOU, Lord! We are going to see YOU WORK!

God is able to do even more than we can imagine. God is still on the throne. With God, nothing is impossible that is in his will. We must keep on praying. Ultimately, Our hope is in the Lord, not in man. As a follower of Christ, all things work together for good to them who are called according to his purpose and greater is He that is within us, then He that is in the world. Praise be to the Lord, my God and Saviour.

There is power in our prayers based on the Word of God. Furthermore, when we pray according to His will, He hears and answers, based on I John 5:15 “And if we know that He hears us, whatever we ask, we know that we have the petitions that we desired of Him.”
