Discussion question for April 8, 2022.

There are places in the Bible that ask us to pray for the nation of Israel, and Psalm 2:8 says to ask Him for the nations. Does God delay His will or taking action until we pray? What is God looking for from us regarding prayer? How do our prayers benefit us? How do they benefit others? What encouragement would you give to a new believer who is trying to understand the purpose of prayer? How do you distinguish between asking for something in prayer versus putting the Lord to the test? How is your relationship with God strengthened through your prayers?
