The expectation of prayer from a sober perspective is very priestly. It requires a great degree of intimacy with God because you're saying, 'Okay, we have this life, this time that's been gifted to us, and we're offering it up to you, thine own of thine own.' The unsober type of prayer is entirely self-satisfactory. It's just consume. I want to consume. That's unsober prayer. That's not prayer.
