1 | Is it by works or by grace? | Luke 11:8 | McGracer | 57782 | ||
Dear Kango, Thanks for your answer. You bring up a good point about praying according to His will. In fact, Rom 8:27 seems to say that the Holy Spirit does this very thing. But do you have any thoughts as to why we would need to continue to pray for things if, according to 2 Pet 1:3, the Holy Spirit in us is already everything that we NEED for life and godliness? Thanks. McGracer |

McGracer, It is never by works, always by grace. God owes us nothing. We cannot gain His favor...we already have it. Yes, I believe we already have everything we need for life and godliness. Prayer is not about "getting" God to focus on us, but rather our need to focus on Him. This is why, we pray unceasingly. He is not hard of hearing but as we call upon Him, we are reminded that He is truly in control of our lives. Just my thoughts. Grace child, Toni |
