Although we're no longer servants but sons, we need to understand the privilege of prayer.
Prayer is not given to enable us to give God orders, to say, "Bless this, do that or provide the other." This is not prayer at all.
Prayer is The Spirit of Jesus Christ working in and through us in order to bring us into harmony with the perfect purposes of The Father.
Prayer is The Spirit of Jesus in me crying, "Abba" - not for manipulation, but for unification - to become one with His perfect purpose and plan.
"And because ye are sons, God hath sent forth The Spirit of His Son into your hearts, crying, Abba, Father. Wherefore though art no more a servant, but a son; and if a son, then an heir of God through Christ." (Galatians 4:6-7 KJV)
