God's sovereignty assures us that our prayers align with His divine purpose and ultimate control over all things.
Understanding God's sovereignty leads us to recognize that prayer is not about persuading God to change His will but rather aligning our hearts with His divine purposes. Our prayers are rooted in the acknowledgment that He is on His throne, sovereign over all creation (Matthew 6:10). This perspective encourages believers to approach God with reverence, trusting that He will fulfill His will in ways that are ultimately good, even if those ways may be beyond our understanding. Therefore, our prayers should seek God's glory and the advance of His kingdom rather than merely personal desires.
