Desusi: h A staunch atheist! When you get to the pit of hell, you will remember me. And you’ll be rejoicing in heaven when other people that might be your friends or even family members are in “pit of hell”. You’ll be so fulfilled remembering that they are burning in “pit of hell”. Wanted to ask is there free will in heaven and hell? 1 Like |

Kobojunkie: Considering what God said in Scripture, the fate if the unrighteous cannot be changed by means of prayer because God does not answer the prayers of the unrighteous. ![undecided](https://www.nairaland.com/faces/undecided.png)
You see, Scripture states that God does not answer the prayers of the unrighteous; the pleas and requests and every petition, praise, offering, work, plea, sacrifice, etc., of the unrighteous are tainted by their sins(disobedience/unholiness) and are hence an abomination to God. So, what is definite is that even your many pleas for the forgiveness of sins are not answered by God given that God made no special exemptions for that kind of plea. No amount of praying can cause God to change His mind regarding that which concerns the unrighteous by the way. So if you are thinking of prescribing more prayers that only means you really don't understand or know God at all. ![undecided](https://www.nairaland.com/faces/undecided.png)
God, however, openly bragged about how He only answers the prayers of the righteous; He delights in granting them the desires of their heart meaning that they are those who are loved by Him. For this very reason, Jesus Christ urged His followers to seek first the Kingdom of God and God's Righteousness in order that all things— the blessings and rewards of the Kingdom of God(holiness), answers to prayers included—shall be added on to them. And as Jesus Christ explained in His Gospel, the only way to become Holy, and then also Righteous, is by way of continuous submission and obedience to the teachings and commandments of Jesus Christ, god's Truth and Law in the Kingdom of god - John 8 vs 31 - 36 & John 14 vs 15 - 23. Jesus Christ is the only way. Obedience to the Truth of God is the one and only path to righteousness. No amount of praying and other religious rituals can accomplish that. ![undecided](https://www.nairaland.com/faces/undecided.png)
God deals indirectly with the unrighteous, the same way He deals with the unbelievers including the wicked and the ungrateful and that is by pouring out His mercy and kindness on them daily. So every time as an unrighteous you feel that God has answered your prayer know that at that same moment, or moments before that, God also provided the same mercy or similar to someone else across the world — or maybe just across from you— who does not even believe in God, nor asked God for anything. So, if answers from God are what you seek, then do what Jesus Christ said you should, which is to seek first the Kingdom of God(holiness), and then God's righteousness, in order that all these things —the blessings and rewards of the Kingdom of God(including answers to prayers) can be added to you. ![undecided](https://www.nairaland.com/faces/undecided.png) Thank you for taking your time to answer me. And from your answers I could see that God only answers the prayer of the righteous ones and when they pray, bad thing or evil event that wants to take place, will be averted. Thanks so much for your time Bless your 💓 |

A friend of mind went for a church program. He prayed at home before leaving and met with other church members, they prayed together before embarking on that journey. Unfortunately, they evolved in an acident, no one survived. |

hopefulLandlord: prayers are useless. You would have the same success praying to a milk jug as you do praying to god -- the milk jug sometimes answers your prayer the way you want to, sometimes not and sometimes the answer is delayed. See the problem here? If things turn out the way you want them to, you say it was because you prayed. If not, it's because god knows what's best and you didn't pray for the right thing. Or, if it happens 10 years later you say god answered your prayer, it was just delayed. This is nonsense. You would have the exact same effect doing nothing. This is where the pastors use to derive their excuses and use it to remain ontop of the people psyche |

The case of late Ifeanyi comes to my mind, wherever you take them to is where they'll always go to play and even though he went to the pool, He could have been saved but his parent were to careless and and so they left him to drown.
In all you do, never let your infant out of your sight because they don't know there's anything called danger |

St. Mark 14:38 Watch and pray so that you will not fall into temptation. The spirit is willing, but the flesh is weak.".
He didn't pray so he fell into temptation. Don't worry I will share my testimony soon😊 Without prayer or no prayer, nobody wish to fall into any temptation or experience any terrible situation. Stop all that religious belief and being irrational and face reality |
