Man's Rule

Why do we hae to pray?  God is God, and why doesn't he do what He wants.  What really was the purpose of prayer.

The whole earth was given over to man's rule or dominion.  Man was made for that purpose.  God made him the head or chief authority over the earth.

David confirms this in Psalms when he speaks of the special position that man has in God's plan.  "What is man, that you woule even think of him?......You made man to have dominion over the works of yur hand and have put all things under his feet" (Ps 8:4-6).

Man was created to exercise dominion over all the works of God's hand.  He was to rule it all, govern it all, be head of ita ll.

His purpose for man from the beginning will forever stay the same.  The man in God's image and likeness has a divine and royal destiny to exercise dominion and authority in the world.
