Why Nigerians Pray By Julius Ogunro If you live in Nigeria, it’s hard not to sometimes think that something is wrong with you. This often happens when you are down on luck and have tried all you can and things are not working out as you hoped for. Then you start thinking that perhaps it is an ancestral curse at work, or that ‘village people’ have cast a special spell on you to impede your progress. You feel frustrated and underappreciated, believing that your earnings and results are not commensurate with your skills, talents and experience. https://www.thecable.ng/why-nigerians-pray 32 Likes 8 Shares

... Prayers give people a sense of security. They feel Since they have prayed,they are secured. They are covered. There will be provisions for them. That what happened to others can not happen to them. In reality,this is all nonsense. They still suffer from what others suffer from. They fall sick. Get kidnapped. Fail exams and Job interviews. Get involved in accidents. Die untimely deaths. Nigeria is one big evidence that prayers don't work. 52 Likes 2 Shares |

In Nigeria we pray and go to church and ns mosque for most basic things that are supoosed to be provided by the govt. The nigeria church will hardly get a member if we had a functioning govt in place.

Mtchewwww! Below are pictures of a worship center that was built by the Akwa-Ibom state Government for over N30b for Akwa-Ibom people to go and pray and an Israeli woman praying in a wailing wall with a gun strapped around her. There is a difference between praying without action and praying backed up by action. Nigeria practices the former and Israel practices the latter. 9 Likes 1 Share

Prayer for economic favour is not the same thing as praying to have a relationship with God. The latter is only concerned about growth in his or her spiritual life. 5 Likes |
Re: Why Nigerians Pray by geoworldedu: 9:23am On Jan 07 |
Well said, but why do you pray to a god that cannot answer its own prayer not to talk of your own prayers? If god can answer prayers, his own prayers(wishes) for his son Jesus to come and end the world would have come to pass long before the existence of our ancestors. If god answers prayers, Nigerians won't need to pray again because all their prayers have been answered. There is a friend of mine who laughed at me when i told him his God Jehovah is fake. The guy eventually relocated to USA and ever since he got there in the Corona era up to date he has never ever stepped his foot into the church. To even think he was a staunch Catholic member right here o. Now he was even saying it proudly that he has not been to church for about four years. Evidence of screenshots to come soon.

Prayer works but most of the things we pray for in Nija doesn't need request from God. We only need action to put them in place. Many things dey wey God require your sensitivity to carry them out not prayers. God is not lazy. 3 Likes |

Prayer is good, but we must do somethings as humans to acquire good things of life either individual or collective. The bible affirmed that God worked for 6 days. Translating this literally means he did overtime with 5 working days consideration. I don't blame us Nigerians much because our leaders are supposed to provide the basic things of life, hence we always pray to God to intervene. We'll get there one day. |
