Bible Question: If God already knows beginning to end, how does prayer change his mind? Or does it? What would be the purpose he already knows how it turns out? |
Bible Answer: Hi Montana mom Your question, "If God already knows beginning to end, how does prayer change his mind? Or does it?" My question would be, do you have something more specific your thinking of? Matt. 6:25,33 25 Therefore I say unto you, Take no thought for your life, what ye shall eat, or what ye shall drink; nor yet for your body, what ye shall put on. Is not the life more than meat, and the body than raiment? 33 But seek ye first the kingdom of God, and his righteousness; and all these things shall be added unto you. The three areas of our life mentioned above, Jesus tells us if we seek His kingdom He will provide these things to us. Romans 11:29 For the gifts and calling of God are without repentance. James 1:17 Every good gift and every perfect gift is from above, and cometh down from the Father of lights, with whom is no variableness, neither shadow of turning. It appears as though, both Physical, and Spiritual things that are supplied to us, we keep:-) At this point then, what is left, that you might pray for, attempting to change Gods' mind? This has been a very thought provoking question, on the grounds, there are things we might attribute to God, that we pray about all the time, Therefore the question remains, will prayer change Gods' mind, if it is something He has given us?
