Henry Theissen quote on the relation of prayer to providence:
“Let us be reminded again that God has set certain general bounds within which his universe is to operate. Within these bounds, he has given man freedom to act. For instance, the believer has the power of the Spirit in his life and may cooperate largely or only in a small degree with the Spirit in the accomplishment of God's work. God foreknew what each man would do in respect to prayer and embraced that in his foreordination. Thus, when a man prays, he only carries out what God knew he would do and what God set him down to do. Where man fails to cooperate with God within the bounds of his predetermined will, there God works by reason of his sovereignty apart from prayer. - Henry C. Thiessen.
