God's Original Plan: Prayer Note # 5

     “The answer to why prayer is necessary lies in God’s original plan when He created Adam…Adam represents all of us. What God intended for Adam, He intended for the entire human race.” (Gen. 1:26-28 tells of his origin, and what he was to do.)   

     We see this also in Psalm 8:3-8: ‘When I consider Thy heavens, the work of Thy fingers, the moon and the stars, which Thou has ordained; What is man, that Thou does take thought of  him?... Thou dost make him to rule over the works of Thy hands; Thou hast put all things under his feet...’ Adam (and eventually his descendants) was God’s manager, God’s steward or governor. Adam was God’s mediator, go-between or representative. Adam, God’s Re-Presenter on Earth-

“..let them have dominion over the fish of the sea, over the birds of the air,…and over every creeping thing …” Gen.1:26
