Work hard to make your heart desires come to pass. praying is a futile attempt. there's been no single study that points to prayer being useful. Templeton Foundation (a religious group) ran a study and found out 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.

going by all these yardsticks and all the principles in the Bible plus the 10 commandments and other silent commandments,
99% of the prayers are going straight to voicemail.

na mercy of God get all of us last last

emorse:

Nothing more needs to be said bro.

But I laughed at your mention of milk jug. The picture that appeared in my head was hilarious to say the least

ExtremeDot:
Your prayers are only hindered because of lack of faith and hard work.

abeg carry una religious thread go one side... even the gods don hands off for our situation

pradoyeep:
You may have been in gatherings were so-called christians shout fire, Holy ghost fire, without any tangible results in their lives. Some may even result in looking for diabolical means if their prayers are not yielding results.

Why are prayers Hindered.

(1) Unconfessed sin: If a Christian does not confess his or her sins to God, and make peace with those he or she offended, it may cause hinderances to prayers.

(2) Evil Covenants: As sincere and genuine as a Christian may be, if there are known or unknown evil covenants that are not broken, this may resist answers to prayers. Positive confession s might be resisted if there are hidden evil covenants.

(3) Pride: spiritual pride, normal pride, pride of being a prayer warrior can resist answers to a person's prayer.

(4) Lack of Importunity: Praying without intense satisfaction may not bring answers. You must pray deeply until your soul and spirit are satisfied. Do not force faith on shabby or unsatisfactory prayers. Apply great faith when you have prayed through.

(5) Foundational Issues: A Christian who has not dealt with foundational powers, ancestral powers, idols of his father's house, powers of his or her father's house, may have resistance to getting results after prayers.

These insights are from myself and others.

It takes Gods mind to understand the mind of God.l observed you're a Free thinker..You better discover the truth before it's too late. God has no respect of persons.
