Summary

“If God already knows everything, then why pray?” Pastor Louie answers this question by encouraging our House to take heart, teaching that it moves the heart of God when prayer is bold and faith-filled. Our prayers have the power to surround His throne like incense. VERSES // Psalm 115:3; 139:4; Job 42:2; Matthew 17:20; Luke 7:1-10; John 12:23-28; Acts 4; Revelation 5

0:13.3	Today's talk comes from Pastor Buie Giglio.
0:18.6	I'm wondering, as we're in this series on prayer, if there's ever been a thought in your mind
0:23.2	where you were thinking, like, if God already knows everything, then why do I really need to ask God anything?
0:32.4	If he already knows everything about everything, and he already knows how everything's going to work out,
0:36.9	do you believe God already knows how everything's going to work out?
0:39.4	Or do you believe God sometimes gets to the moment, goes, well, I had no idea that was going to happen?
0:44.7	I mean, that's a tough one, isn't it? I mean, do you ever think God gets to that moment,

1:24.5	some of the things his word says, because these seem like they operate on two sides of the equation.
1:32.7	Psalm 115 3, our God is in heaven. He does whatever pleases him. No, I like that about God,
1:39.6	personally. He does whatever he wants to do. That's what he does. Well, I didn't like what he did. Well,
1:44.8	he does what he wants to do and he's a good God. So he's always going to do something that's good,
1:52.0	even if it doesn't look like it for us. So if God does whatever pleases him, why do I need to pray?
1:59.9	Or maybe my parents just got to do it, ever pleases you. That's what you're going to do anyway. So do
2:04.8	that in Jesus' name, amen. Or what about this one in Job 42 to say it a different way? Job came
