Masterlee - I like how you articulated that point.
Even more simple, when we pray for answers, guidance, instruction and insight we are asking God for revelation about our lives. We are imploring to our father to Reveal His hidden purposes and meaning for action in our everyday lives.
I am expecting Him to point me in the right direction in my business, with my family, my calling in the priesthood and just about every aspect of my existence. In fact, I totally depend on him for insight in how to conduct myself according to His will.
So yes, those in authority ask for revelation in order to do and act in His stead, according to and in sync with His will as to the affairs of His church and kingdom.
