W. Robert Godfrey: Does Prayer Change Things?

If God is sovereign over all things, does prayer really affect the course of events in this world? Why should we pray if God has foreordained whatsoever comes to pass? Does prayer change God’s mind? In this message, Dr. W. Robert Godfrey gives an overview of the relationship of prayer to the sovereignty of God, encouraging us that prayer is an important means of communing with God and changing things in creation without changing God Himself.
