"God's knowledge is infinite, and his wisdom is impeccable. We simply cannot rightly understand prayer to provide God any item of information or insight that would assist him in determining what is best to do. As I've noted elsewhere, when Jesus instructs his disciples how to pray, he does not encourage them to pray, 'Your will be formed', but rather 'Your will be done'! Prayer cannot rightly be seen as a source of added knowledge or wisdom for God. God alone knows all, and he alone knows best. Period."
Bruce Ware, from For The Fame of God's Name
