Sup,
Romans 12:2 says, "Do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewal of your mind, that by testing you may discern what is the will of God, what is good and acceptable and perfect."
I used to think that prayer was the tool to get my way. After all, John 16:24 says, "Until now you have asked nothing in my name. Ask, and you will receive, that your joy may be full." I didn't want to accept that prayer's main effects was getting closer to God. Let's turn this into something positive. How do our minds get renewed? By God's mercy and grace. All over the bible God shows that we need Him and that we cannot do it ourselves. So let us pray at all times in the Spirit, with all prayer and supplication (Eph 6:18). After all, "how much more will the heavenly Father give the Holy Spirit to those who ask him!" (Luke 11:13).
Ok, I admit that this post wasn't very good. I just wanted to put something up. So, just let the scriptures speak for themselves.
