Intercession of the saints is a Christian doctrine common to the vast majority of the world's Eastern Orthodox, Oriental Orthodox, Roman Catholic, Anglican, and a number of Reformed Christian communities. Intercessory prayer is a petition made to God on behalf of others. If a believer prays for their children or friends, their enemies or leaders, then the believer is interceding on behalf of another. Equally, the believer may pray to a saint or the Blessed Virgin Mary for them to intercede with God to fulfill the believer's request. The doctrine of saintly intercession goes back to the earliest church. The justification for calling upon a saint in prayer is that the saints are both close to God, because of their holiness, and accessible to humans. Historically, the belief matched the earthly patterns of patron-client relations that were the normal way of attempting to deal with the inflexible bureaucracy of the later Roman Empire, and the very personal governmental processes of the Middle Ages. The saints were seen as God's courtiers in a Heaven that was often envisaged as resembling somewhat the courts of earthly rulers.
