The effectual fervent prayer of a righteous man availeth much. James 5:16
It is a part of God's plan to grant us, in answer to the prayer of faith, that which He would not bestow did we not thus ask. (Triumph of God's Love pages 459-460)
"Thy testimonies are my meditation." "Through Thy precepts I get understanding: therefore I hate every false way." Psalm 119:99, 104.
"Happy is the man that findeth wisdom." "He shall be as a tree planted by the waters, and that spreadeth out her roots by the river, and shall not see when heat cometh, but her leaf shall be green; and shall not be careful in the year of drought, neither shall cease from yielding fruit." Proverbs 3:13; Jeremiah 17:8.
