Episode 761 Show Notes
From the Show
There are two errors we have when praying. one is bending God’s will through our prayers, as if they change God’s mind. But God knows all things, everything happens to the counsel of his will. An opposite danger is the fatalistic view of prayer that says, “God is going to do whatever he wants anyway.” But God has ordained that the way he accomplishes his work in the world is through the prayers of his people.
