“The effectual fervent prayer of a righteous man availeth much.”
James 5:16
"Delight thyself also in the LORD; and he shall give thee the desires of thine heart."
Psalm 37:4
"What the wicked dreads will overtake him, but the desire of the righteous will be granted."
Proverbs 10:24
"Likewise, ye husbands, dwell with them according to knowledge, giving honour unto the wife, as unto the weaker vessel, and as being heirs together of the grace of life; that your prayers be not hindered."
1 Peter 3:7
Whose will is answered according to the desire of a righteous person?
Suppose your spouse is a non-believer and you pray for his or her salvation? Does God try to save your spouse against your spouse's will? Being omiscient, God already knows the outcome. Does He answer the righteous person's prayer or does He allow the sinner to have free will?
???
Those are serious questions.
