Praying "Thy Kingdom Come"


I've been mulling over this quotation of Karl Barth:

"To clasp the hands in prayer is the beginning of an uprising against the disorder of the world."

It puts me in mind of Eugene Peterson's statement:

"Prayer is God's way of giving his people causality in the cosmos."

Any thoughts?
