Praying for intentions and God's will

Hi! If God already has a plan for us, then what’s the use of praying for our own intentions?

What if there was a flexible plan for us. Then through prayer we might alter and enhance our lot, influence outcomes and ensure salvation.

Because those prayers are part of God’s plan .

The general plan of God, for us is ,we should be saved,that is, to reach heaven safely,second ,God’s plan, are some times, revealed at a certain time in our lives,we may have to wait a bit and for some, it unfolds little by little,like for example ,St Antony prayed for knowing God’s will for 7 years.

Here’s the catch,when we pray! it’ll be more of less on our favor or our specific interest ,when we make know our request to Jesus ,thus we should never stop praying ,but rather pray with trust and child like confidence,other wise, well’ll be babbling that is, we keep repeating our prayers again and again ,praying with doubt, which St James says the doubter will not receive anything ,so keep praying with perseverance or pray with out ceasing. God Bless

Prayer works miracles … I truly believe that … whatever God’s plans are, our praying is surely a part of them.

Me, I would say - and this is just IMO -
praying - is to awaken - YOURSELF - to it -

And believe it or not - God’s plan for you -
may be - very brief - like a quick moment in time -

perhaps - one minute -

I don’t read in the Bible though, about God - having a plan -
There’s no " Plan B " - lol
