The Lesson of Prayer‏

The Lesson of Prayer
From the messages of Adrian Roger

Matthew 6:10 - "Thy kingdom come. Thy will be done in earth, as itis in heaven." Some time ago I was invited to speak at a college in another state,and my schedule was such that I could not come. When they offeredto send a private plane, I agreed. As we flew over Arkansas, thepilot asked me if I wanted to try my hands at flying the plane. Isaid, "Yes." Of course, he was sitting right next to me. He couldfly it without me, but I couldn't fly it without him. He had hishands on the controls with me. He allowed me to participate withhim. That's the way prayer is. God can do it without you, but God enables you to have fellowship with Him and teaches you a dependency upon Him.

1 Chronicles 16:23-26 (KJV), Sing unto the LORD, all the earth;shew forth from day to day his salvation. Declare his glory among the heathen; his marvelous works among all nations. Forgreat is the LORD, and greatly to be praised: he also is to befeared above all gods. For all the gods of the people are idols:but the LORD made the heavens.
