Prayer and fasting?

Against barbarians?

You’re suggesting that with adequate prayer and fasting during the first week of December 1941, the first Sunday of the month would be “just another Sunday” in history?

No.

Putting words in my fingers is not wise.

Prayer and Fasting MAY . . . be used of God as a spiritually potent perhaps ‘spiritually legal’ option to alter what might have otherwise been.

Prayer and Fasting does NOT turn God into a vending maching for fleshly human preferences.

God is still God and always will be God.

However, HE INVITES US, EXHORTS US, CALLS US, ORDERS US TO PRAY.

IT IS HIS PROGRAM FOR HIS PURPOSES AND HIS GLORY.

We show our Love for HIM by our obedience to pray. He decides what to answer how and when.

I thought those points were understood.
