I don't agree. On my own, my only real interaction would be to screw things up. My goal is to due justly, love mercy and walk humbly with my God. The only way I could ever pull that off is if He shows me how I ought to interact with his Will.
That is the point behind Christian obedience; I want my actions, thoughts, desires to be in sync with Gods, not the other way around. But I have to ask direction first. Then I have to be willing to follow through when I get an answer.

Fine. Let's assume that. But... what difference would it make whether you pray for that or not? If God is going to show you something... he'll do it whether or not you ask, yes? If you can persuade God into doing something he previously wasn't going to do... doesn't that knock the pins out from under the idea that God is all knowing and all powerful?
Somehow I suspect that this issue will not be resolved here. I think people have been fighting this one out for a few centuries now.
