Is Shouting Amen More Than Your Neighbour Guarantee Answered Prayers? by toolovely(m): 8:13am On Dec 16, 2018
Recently, pastors while praying for the congregation would tell the church to shout "amen on top of their voices" or that "your amen should be louder than your neighbour" to be blessed.

And I want to ask, does how much you shout amen guarantee your blessings from God or the heart and faith that you accept the prayers being offered?

Why don't we start by first finding out meaning of the word "Amen"?

believe is the main thing in prayer

One of the most powerful prayers ever answered in the Bible (Hannah's request for a child) was without a spoken word, let alone an amen.

Anytime I'm praying and a pastor keeps harping "Pray louder!! Shout a bigger amen!!!" My silence increases and motion during prayer keeps reducing. Their shout isn't validation or invalidation of my prayers. I'm praying to God, not them.

No! Your believe and faith determines your answers.
The pastors say that just to make the service lively

Your pattern might not be possibly mine.

Some shout while others pray in silence.

Pastors can be very funny... There are plenty doubting Thomases screaming AMEN in churches. Without faith, you'd just be shouting yourself hoarse. All that "let your amen be louder than your neighbour's" bullshit NEVER moves me. GOD IS NOT DEAF!

Does it mean that those who pray aloud are answered before those who pray in silence?

The one wey dey vex me die na when all those pastors have the congregation chanting 'Die, Die, Die' for more than 5 minutes non stop. You wey no come do am go be like demon for their midst.




Pastor; Now, the angels have told me, there are 27 people here that are about to recover their lost blessings. Oh yes! I can see the angels holding boxes of gifts. Stretch your hands forward and get ready to receive yours. If you want to receive your own, with an Amen louder than your neighbors' Reeecciieevvee yooouuurrr bleesssiiiingg.

Congregation; Ameeeeeeeeeeeeeen! I receive it!


Pastor; Skiborobo! Yes, yes, yes! I can see it. People are receiving their gifts. Yes, yes! Take it, take it! Take it back! Any power standing on my way...

Congregation; Fall down and die!

Pastor; Any power standing on my way....

Congregation; Fall down and die! X100

10 minutes later.
Pastor; It is now time for offering. Don't be selfish to God. You have received your gifts. Now reward God with a bountiful offering. Change that offering. Don't give God what you gave him last week. Change it for God's sake. And for those of you who pledged 24-hour miracle seeds...come to the altar with your pledges in envelopes. I also need just 5 people who would pledge the sum of 500k each for the growth of the church of God. Just five.

(in less than 5 minutes, there are over a hundred people scattered across the altar.)
