The Purpose of Prayer: Changing Us or Changing God?

The purpose of prayer is often debated, with some believing it's primarily meant to change us rather than change God. The argument suggests that since God is perfect and has a plan, prayers are unnecessary for altering His intentions. However, this perspective raises questions about the authenticity of the relationship with God, implying that prayer is solely for our acceptance of His plan. This interpretation conflicts with what is portrayed in the scriptures, indicating that prayer serves a purpose beyond just changing our perspective to align with God's plan.
