We are in charge of our own lives and can choose whether or not to involve God.
JOHN 14:13-14 And whatsoever ye shall ask in my name, that will I do, that the Father may be glorified in the Son. If ye shall ask any thing in my name, I will do it.
Christ has given His Body, the church, a portion of His earthly authority. Our decisions as Christians, which we can express in prayer, have an impact on both our lives and the lives of others.
MARK 11:24 Therefore I say unto you, What things soever ye desire, when ye pray, believe that ye receive them, and ye shall have them.
JEREMIAH 33:3 Call unto me, and I will answer thee, and show thee great and mighty things, which thou knowest not.
PSALM 50:15 And call upon me in the day of trouble: I will deliver thee, and thou shalt glorify me.
SAY THIS: God encourages me to pray and to have faith so that He can accomplish His will in heaven and on earth.
