How Prayer Works

What this episode covers

But sometimes - not often but sometimes - our prayers do change things and God acts in a manner he otherwise would not have, had we not prayed. This seems to have been one of those occasions. We cannot get into the mind of God to discern how his omniscience impacts his answers to our prayers. But we can pray urgently, fervently, persistently, faithfully, and humbly. And while never telling God what to do, we can rejoice when our will aligns with his will for our good and blessing. And when we see that happening we can praise God for his grace, goodness, faithfulness, and love.
