Usually when a theist brings up free will, it's an attempt to excuse their god for not solving problems that are out of our control. Why didn't he stop the rapist from raping? Free will. Ignoring the fact that he apparently values the rapist's free will over the victim's free will.
Plus there are stories in the bible where god specifically ignores free will, like Moses and the Pharaoh. Or Jonah. Or anyone else who doesn't kowtow to his demands.
Whether or not we actually have free will, which is apparently a debatable concept, it doesn't help from a theistic perspective.
