The Lesson of Prayer!

Matthew 6:10  

"Thy kingdom come. Thy will be done in earth, as it
 is in heaven."

 The Lesson of Prayer!

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 offered

 to send a private plane, I agreed. As we flew over Arkansas, the

 pilot asked me if I wanted to try my hands at flying the plane. I

 said, "Yes." Of course, he was sitting right next to me. He could

 fly it without me, but I couldn't fly it without him. He had his

 hands on the controls with me. He allowed me to participate with

 him. 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.  For

 great is the LORD, and greatly to be praised: he also is to be

 feared above all gods. For all the gods of the people are idols:

 but the LORD made the heavens.
