I thought you had no idea how to use such words, so I was going to teach you. Well, then, what was it you said again? Were you narrating how you spent close to 5 hours praying, "concentrating" like a Buddhist? I'm sorry I can't help you. I'm neither a psychiatrist nor a therapist. Are we done now?

Its a pity you just can't seem to help yourself, after all this shii you claim to be ,
Blockhead why won't you misquote me,
You should learn minding your business if you can't get things right, or you ask for help, you need one

God answers prayers in one of the following ways: Yes, No, Wait.

He released his blessing the moment you prayed but you were not rightly positioned for his blessing. Ask yourself, where am i ? What have you done? Who are you with?. These question determine when you get your blessing. Don't let your blessing s come and find you not ready..
Re: Why Doesn't God Answer My Prayers? by Nobody: 1:05pm On Jan 22, 2017
The King of King, The Lord of Lord, The Father of our Lord Jesus Christ still answers prayer. Even if He did not answer yours will not discredit God, He is a master healer, He still blesses people all over the world and from generation to generation. He becomes more real to me everyday. Why don't you ask what you are doing wrong that has not make your prayer to be answered. Are you obeying Him, Are you working in line with His purpose for your life,Are you helping others too, Do you fellowship regularly with people of faith. Hence wait for him. In due time you will reap if you faint not. He is more than faithful. My own life is a testimony and God is not a respecter of persons. What He did for one, He will do for another. Brother look inward. Examine yourself

Maybe you don't show love by disturbing the peace and your neighborhood in praying and worship.
Maybe you don't go to the corner of your room to pray as instructed.

Nothing spiritual. If there is, then God is sebtimental. Do u not deserve to be in Los Angeles? Why are some poor and others rich? Yet all have same destination (death) why not give everyone equal opportunity?

For anything to move from one place to another, there is a force behind it, and if the universe can come into existence, there is a stronger force behind it. and there is this SUPREME FORCE THAT IS BEHIND EVERY BEHIND. and That SUPREME FORCE IS GOD. so my brother it is only the ignorant that will doubt the existence of GOD. may GOD have mercy on us.
I agree with your statement that every action has a force behind it(cos it agrees with the laws of physics)

we can choose to call the supreme force behind the creation of the universe god, goat, cup, whatever we like (cos the word "god" has been overused that it has lost it meaning).


but how do we know that this force is the Christian god?, can't it be the Muslim god? or the Buddhist god?

Hence the call for proof from the adherents of different religions.

if god does exist indeed, what are the proofs that he actually intervene in the happenings of the universe.

does he help super falcons to win matches?
does he break the laws of the universe (laws of physics) because of a single petitioner.

disclaimer: if you intend on answering any of the questions above, please do not reference the Bible or any other only book... do it base on pure reasoning(cos that is what I can understand)

The SUPREME FORCE OR BEING, which i called GOD here is neither Christian nor Muslim, i don't know and i don't wanna discuss it religiously...But what i know is that The SUPREME GOD is super natural and HE is Ominipotent, Ominipresent and Ominiscience, He has no Begining nor Ending. and Everything that happens around and inside even over the Universe is being controled by The Supreme God. see u later.
Re: Why Doesn't God Answer My Prayers? by redsun(m): 12:59am On Jan 23, 2017
It depends on what you are praying for. If you are praying to pass exams without studying, he's never gonna answer that. And if you are also praying to be a millionaire without thinking and working hard like a millionaire, he's never gonna answer that too.

Answered prayers are manifestations of dreams,dogged determinations, hopes and drives.
