Prayer frees the Lord in all situations. It may not seem like it at the time, but still it is true. It is we who are waiting for the execution of the imagined solution, but the Lord's way is always with a dimension of newness and creativity we can't foresee. I won't recognize His hand unless I am praying about the issue and releasing it to Him. Also, prayer protects the one who has prayed from a sense of accomplishment when the prayer is answered. Those who pray little or not at all feel responsible when it appears things are not going well, and they take the same false assumption when it seems like they have saved the day. Everything by prayer. |
