You are better off praying for yourself and this because Jesus Christ taught His followers how to do that. Your prayers become effective when you submit to and live in continuous obedience of the teachings and commandments of Jesus Christ, not just as far as prayer is concerned. undecided

Here is a summary of sorts of some of the New Covenant teachings and commandments given by Jesus Christ where Prayer is concerned - please be sure to


Ask, Seek and Knock, in order to receive, find and have the door opened to you[b]Matthew 7 vs 7[/b]
Pray continously. I.e. don't stop asking, seeking, knocking until you have recieved, found and had the door opened to you
Matthew 21 vs 22 & Luke 18 vs 1- 8
Avoid vain repetitions because God knows what you want even before you ask Him Matthew 6 vs 7 - 8
Always pray in secret and in hiding Matthew 6 vs 6
Pray the Lord's prayer-Matthew 6 vs 9- 13
Forgive everyone who has hurt or offended you before you pray so your father in Heaven will forgive you your sins- Matthew 11 vs 25 & Matthew 6 vs 12
Always approach God in Humility-
Luke 18 vs 9 - 4
Believe that you have received what you ask for and it shall be done for you
Matthew 21 vs 22 & Mark 11 vs 24
Ask the Father in the name of Jesus Christ
John 15 vs 16
If you abide in Him and He, Jesus, abides in you, then He, Jesus Christ , will do whatever you ask in His name[b]John 14 vs 13-14 & john 15 vs 7[/b]
Pray for your enemies - Matthew 5 vs 44 & Luke 6 vs 27- 28
Ask God for the Holy Spirit -
Luke 11 vs 13 & Matthew 7 vs 11



As Jesus Christ said, those who love Him are, not those who go around mouthing off that they do, but instead take who submit to and obey His teachings- John 14 vs 23 - 26. undecided

If the unrighteous pray for the sinner will God Hear?

If the Unrighteous prays for the righteous will God Hear?

Or if a sinner prays, will God Hear?

None. Evidences show you're all on your own. How do u reconcile those that died praying for things non religious people have in abundance. Life doesnt run differently or play out differently in countries like China where they don't do religion. They live, they die just like us. Some get lucky, something an Africa man will quickly attribute to God. Some dont get lucky and yet,they dont pray. The only difference is, they live better. All the things you need prayer for here, they've achieved them. Is like having 2 children, you love one so much because he talks to u always and try to know u more while the other one doesnt care. But the child that doesnt care get more benefits from you directly or indirectly. You can say all you want about ignorance, lack of faith. There are few conclusions we can draw. Either you don't care as much as the other child thinks you do, or you dont exist. You only live in his head.
