GIVE CREDIT WHERE IT'S DUE. I read a report by a fellow who had car trouble. He said he prayed about it while on a trip, and the problem went away by itself. How can we expect God to answer prayer when we won't admit he did? This is either a lack of faith, that is, we don't believe God really answers prayer and we just pray as sort of a good luck charm. Or, it means, more likely in this fellows case I think, of just not thinking in spiritual terms. Christians must upgrade their thinking and praying. When we pray, especially asking God to intervene, and He does, we must give him credit by way of thanksgiving and praise. It will glorify Him and it will increase your faith.
