Insulting God's Intelligence.
There is a story that when Bill Moyers was a special assistant to President Lyndon B. Johnson, he was asked to say grace before a meal in the family quarters of the White House. As Moyers began praying softly, the President interrupted him with:
“Speak up, Bill! Speak up!”
The former Baptist minister from east Texas stopped in mid-sentence and without looking up replied steadily:
“I wasn’t addressing you, Mr President.”
The lesson here is that God is not Man. He has no limitations. He can read and perceive minds not to talk of whispers. So, everyone that screams and stamps feet on ground in the name of prayer is not only wasting time and energy but also insulting God's intelligence.
