John,

That's the same conclusion I came to, that is, every prayer would have to be
the will of God and I am far from that point in my life.  I can see,
however, how it might work.  It is like a preacher I know says, I don't
swing at everything that comes across the plate.  I have people occasionally
now ask me to pray about something specific but I don't.  I don't because I
can't pray about what they are requesting because I know from talking to
them that it would not be the will of God.

Phil.
