Renewing Your Mind · Does Prayer Change Things? · 28 Jul 2026 podcast

How often Jesus asks us to pray for what he has promised to do.

And then this brings us back to that question of if God is sovereign, why do we need to pray?

If God has promised something, he's gonna do it, right?

Whether we pray about it or not, why do we need to pray?

And then I took another look at the Lord's Prayer and realized in a real sense, all the petitions of the Lord's Prayer are things the Lord has promised to do.

Is God gonna keep his name holy?

You bet.

Is God's kingdom going to come?

Absolutely.

Is God's will going to be done?

For sure.

Is God going to give me each day my daily bread?

Well, we might debate whether that's absolutely promised, but I think most of us are looking pretty well fed.

or too well fed, is God going to forgive our sins?

You know, there were a group of Christians at one time who said, well, we should pray the Lord's Prayer asking God to forgive our sins because He's already forgiven our sins.

So if we ask Him to forgive our sins, it would be calling that forgiveness into doubt.

So we shouldn't pray the Lord's Prayer.

Well, they were wrong.

The Lord has promised to forgive our sins if we trust in Jesus.

The Lord wants us to pray for that as well.
