[quote=Anonymous]Rationalistic and mechanistic explanations will fail. The bottom line is that we are commanded to pray and we do so because it is fitting (to God's glory) and obedient, even if it doesn't get us "what we want". As Christ prayed to the Father, after making his request: "Nevertheless not my will, but Yours be done". And as Job said, "Though he slay me, I will hope in him; yet I will argue my ways to his face." You are right that he knows all things and therefore has no need of our prayers. Yet he delights in our prayers and it is fitting to his glory that he receives them.[/quote]
