I Peter 1:16-17
Excerpted from: What Is Prayer?

This journey toward holiness is going to be hard work. It is going to require work.

The reproductive process is not solely God's work in us, because we also play a major role in what is going on. The work of God in this world is the implantation of His Spirit in us, which gives to us the barest elements of the divine nature and then the growth and perfection of holiness in His people. We are in a work of transformation, of conversion, unto holiness.

It is right here that prayer fits back into the picture because verse 17 says, "and if you call on the Father." That is prayer. Prayer is an integral part of the obtaining of, achieving of, implantation of, transformation of—from the glory of man to the glory of God. Prayer fits right into the scheme of things.
