Unmistakable Program

“For My thoughts are not your thoughts,
Nor are your ways My ways,” says the Lord.
“For as the heavens are higher than the earth,
So are My ways higher than your ways,
And My thoughts than your thoughts. Isaiah 55:8-9 NKJV
God never changes His plan and program. It's all set before the creation of the world. Abraham prayed to spare Sodom and Gomorrah but unanswered. The cities of idolatry and adultery couldn't escape the judgment of the Lord God Almighty. But God disclosed the plan Abraham to destroy the cities, which inspired him to pray. It's a profound mystery that God never changes His program and yet He let His saints to pray for the world that are doomed to destruction. 
God wants His children to be part of His good work for salvation of the world and at the same time He is fulfilling the good works without being swayed at any degree at all. All the human events and incidents are working together to fulfill His will and redemption. What a privilege to be part of unchanging and infallible program of God! The question is how we can be part of His program. One thing is so obvious that we should study the Scripture thoroughly and completely. When we understand what God's promises are, we can truly pray in line with His program. And that's what the true prayer is.
