Can Prayers Transform Nigeria? by FUTURE4202(m): 12:08pm On Mar 03
Why is it that despite how nigerians take God and christianity serious, despite our prayers, nigeria is still very backward. But in the western world where christianity is not taking serious(because must of dem are pagan's with no religion affiliation) and prayers are like a sin, their country and economy is doing very fine.

We have seen cases of people getting sack and deported overseas, just because they offer prayers or preach to people at their place of work. Which is a usual exercise here in nigeria.

My question is simply why is nigeria still backward despite how serious we take christianity and pray?

Prayers alone cannot change nigeria. but if we want to see geniune change/transformation in this nation each and everyone of us have to be intentional about it and stop the blame game. we will have to stop being selfish and become selfless and patriotic. may God help us.

You are very correct.

No it cannnot and was never meant to.

Evidence 1: It has never helped Nigeria the past 30 years.

Evidence 2 ; it is not helping Nigeria currently.

Evidence 3 : lots of countries who don't depend on prayers are actually doing well and in Nigeria, a prayerful country, an individual goes to give testimony in the church for being granted a visa to a non prayerful country.

"Insanity is doing the same thing and expecting a different result"

I fully expect to quote me and tell me "it would have bern worse than this without prayers"

China did not pray or do organized religion and the country is doing good and taking over the world. Praying for the country to change is just an emotional exercise and wishful thinking at best.
