At the same time, however, this recognition stands as one of the prevailing ironies of Ellington's career, as he was deep into the latter stages of his performing life by this point.

Prayer is an act of dominion! Prayer is not a repetition of words but it is taking authority over things that have not lined up with the word of god.
