Should we ask God to stand in our way if something we want to do is not His will for us? There are examples from Scripture that indicate that this is wise. When we consider that much of our thinking is not yet in line with His, such a prayer can convey both trust in His wisdom over our own, and a sincere desire to live our lives in the center of His will. The goal of all prayer is that we align our will with His.
“Father, if you are willing, take this cup from me; yet not my will, but yours be done.” Jesus in Gethsemane Conversations Within” ts 9/14/2016
