Here’s a bit of Luther that we will consider:
Therefore will it be unnecessary to pray, to trust, and to hope? Must we be like the Epicureans, who now declare that they leave everything to God’s will and direction, for the things God has decreed are bound to come to pass? Prayer should by no means be discontinued; for God has commanded us to pray, to believe, to call upon Him, to hallow His name, and to hope. God could gather a church without the Word, manage the state without a government, produce children without parents, and create fish without water; but He commands us and wants us to preach and to pray, and everyone to do his duty in his station. But if the outcome does not always come up to what we have determined in advance, we must nevertheless continue in our calling and leave the result and the issue to Him. (Luther’s Works, 4:353-354)
