Good question...!

Let me answer you with the following quote from the Good Book itself:

"That ye may be the children of your Father which is in heaven: for He maketh his sun to rise on the evil and on the good, and sendeth rain on the just and on the unjust." (Matt. 5:45)

God has already blessed every nation with resources and brains... So, in essence, He has answered the prayers religious people already prayed from the beginning of creation.

Failing to apply common sense and human intelligence will never be corrected by praying even for extreme lengths of time.

I knew you would say this. And I was waiting for you.
So the next question. If yahweh has answered everyone's prayers THEN WHY DO WE STILL PRAY? Why do they harass us to pray without ceasing in the bible? 😆

mygee2:
Ask yourself if not for prayer With all the bad leadership looting Who is watching over us if not the Almighty

So who's watching over Norway, UK etc which are least prayerful, don't give a fvck about Yahweh but more stable and economical stronger countries?
Logical reasoning is a problem here

ovieigho:
Shows you don’t comprehend my write up

The stats was put up here by someone
How is Niger or Afghanistan praying countries ?

They picked poor and crisis countries and said they are the praying countries just to rubbish prayers

They are praying countries, whether yahweh, or Allah

dominique:
How will such prayers work when a huge percentage of the prayerful religious people are hypocrites with filthy mindsets? The same sets of people that won't hesitate to cheat, backstab, back bite or pull down his/her fellow humans yet they keep bragging about how prayerful from morning till night. Let's not talk about people commiting all sorts of fornication and adultery yet pride themselves as prayer warriors. Honestly looking at the way majority of Nigerians behave, I think we truly deserve the predicament we found ourselves today. The worst type of prayer is that from the mouth of an hypocrite. You're mocking God and you will continue to incur his wrath!

Yet countries that don't give a fvck your god are far better. What can you say about it?

minasu190:
That is why we are blessed with numerous natural resources, sadly, we are not blessed with good leaders and individual problems as Nigerians, we pray against our enemies, forgetting that we are also the enemy of my brothers.
Religious bigotry and ethnicity have weakened the strength of our dear country, we are the most prayerful country but what has changed so far? Not that God is not with us , but we are against ourselves..we need LOVE, regardless of the religions or tribes.

Excuse me, what do you see in Nigeria that suggests god is with us?
By the way, looking at your statement that means If God is for us, who can be against us?” (Romans 8:31) is a lie then?

donbenie:
And what is your almighty god waiting for to heal your sh1thole of a country?
Until everyone is dead from disease, poverty and insecurity?

Hes not a Christian. Keep him outta your crosshairs

maasoap:
That's a wishful thinking, you know that is not true.

Like most christians, you don't know much. Look at this. Don't run away from reality

These 3 sources put christianity at average of 47.5% or thereabouts

jetwonder:
At the appointed time the saviour comes
Keep the faith!
Keep Praying!!!

Appointed time? Nigga my dad was a prayerful man and died hoping the country would get fixed. And I'm sure both of us would run our race and at the end, this country would be worse off. Wtf is appointed time? A million years? You christians are prime comedians

Rebuke:
God is really with us here bro. Being free from natural disasters alone is enough to know God hears us.

Our only problem is bad leadership and we are the one to fix that.

Yet Scandinavian countries have no natural disasters yet have very low prayer profiles. And whats more, they are much better economically

bonnyhope:
Prayers without work amount to nothing

What happens to people that work without prayers?

spiSeyi:
One thing about the listed countries is that they are less productive even though they have all it takes The more the prayer the less the productivity.
To be more productive in life pray less, do more, and be thankful most times
Ecclesiastes 5:3 admonished us to pray less
Even Jesus mentioned in Luke 11:2-4
Genesis 2:15, Eccl 9:10, Luke 16:10, and 1 Timothy 5: 8 made Christians know that we need to work & pray for what we want but most Christians in Nigeria just want to pray and get what they want like magic . Even the Bible made us know that faith without work is dead. God will add more to what we have as blessings if the only thing we possess is prayers God will add more to our prayers and if we are productive God we add more to our productivity. Stay blessed Shalom!

Same buybull said this
1 Thessalonians 5:16-18
16 Rejoice always, 17 pray without ceasing , 18 give thanks in all circumstances; for this is the will of God in Christ Jesus for you

Stop tryna twist the buybull

BigDawsNet:
That's wot is keeping this country alive till today...

Praise da Lord

So whats keeping the non praying countries alive?

hopefulLandlord:
There's little to nothing that shows prayers work. Read about the Templeton Foundation study on prayer.

Lol. You saw his post where he said the statistics came from the devil. And you think he'll be impressed by the Templeton Foundation research, or any research for that matter? Lol 😆

DARLINGTON869:
Something is definitely wrong somewhere. 2nd highest praying nation and yet virtually every sector is in a horrible state. UNBELIEVABLE. Of course the problem is not from God. It's from the very people praying and kabashing. When we decide to TRULY repent, work on our filthy and demonic attitudes and seek God with a pure heart and contrition, then God will begin to arise on our behalf. Only in Nigeria will one finish praying on Sunday, and the following day he's already booking room 9 at a hotel for a personal "night vigil" with sister precious. Pastors are constantly being caught pants down with members wives. Looting the order of the day in government. Lying, cheating, debauchery,deceit and malice rules virtually everyone's lives and yet we expect God to listen to us. DEY PLAY OOO. YOU HEAR?? MY FELLOW NIGERNIGERIANS MAKE WE CONTINUE TO DEY PLAYYYYYYY

So why does he answer the prayers of those that don't pray to him and mocking countries like UK, Denmark?

Angelfrost:
Yet, numbers 1 and 2 are havens for terrorists...!

What does that say about religion without true morality and love??! Y'all should go figure.

God cannot be mocked... Pray all you want, you will continue to fall behind nations that have shunned corruption and learned to apply their brains to growing their nations.

So what about the nations that actually mock yahweh like US, UK etc with homosexuality, trans etc. Are you saying yahweh answered their prayers and completely ignored those that at least don't mock him and pray to him?

backbone503:
The difference between Nigeria (and some under developed and developing nations) and the advanced nations is that: while we largely submerge our lives into God, they put God into their lives.

Translation sir

hopefulLandlord:
Why can't they? Didn't you read 2 Chronicles 7:14 that says if you pray God will heal your land?

Most christians don't even read their bibles or they cherrypick

barojana:
Well this must be representative of Islamic prayers I guess.

Nigeria is about 50% christian. So half of those prayers go into yahweh's inbox. He must be chilling in the Bahamas and neglecting his mail

jetwonder:

That mean our hope is on God.
One day God will answer our prayer in this country!
Don't derail from the faith!
Keep praying!!!!

Exactly the post I was looking for. This post right here shows that this country is eternally doomed.
A post was made stating that your country is almost the most prayerful in the world. And what does this genius come up with? Dude said our hope is in god. Which god? The same god we have been praying for 63 years and things have been going downhill EVERY SINGLE YEAR! Same god that said call on him and he shall answer but yet the country IS STUCK IN THE SAME DOLDRUMS YEAR AFTER YEAR!
Remember each year, the population of christians and Muslims increase, thus more people praying, yet more misery. Also churches are exploding all over the place. The only thing exploding along with it is corruption. The economy is going down with hardship and austerity taking up the reins.
Yet my dude says our hope is in god. Are you saying he's on a vacation or what?
Ok. Look at the least prayerful countries. UK, Canada, Denmark etc. Guess what? They don't give a fvck about your god but they are way better than you. You even run to them en masse.
Logical reasoning is really a problem for Nigerians.

Ken4Christ:
I agree but it's happening in increasing measure. Besides, some kind of deaths happening today were uncommon years back

Eg
1. Brother killing sister because of 200 Naira banana.
2. Husbands killing wives at the slightest quarrel and vice versa.
Etc

Youre bent on expounding your narrative without using your cerebral hemispheres.
People kill each other for fickle reasons right back in medieval times. Even in your bible mythology, siblings kill each other for flimsy reasons.
Also homicidal domestic violence has been on for centuries. A little research would have straightened you but you aren't just interested in knowing the truth

MaxInDHouse:
This is what my God said about His worshipers:

No weapon formed against you will have any success, And you will condemn any tongue that rises up against you in the judgment. This is the heritage of the servants of Jehovah, And their righteousness is from me,” declares Jehovah! Isaiah 54:17

So if you guys want to use subtle means to speak against faith your plans will be shattered that's the heritage of God's people now you can continue intimidating misinformed churchgoers with your hopeless logics!

Amin!

Who owns this account? God or you? And what do you want us to do with it?

There are also countless testimonies(and no evidence) of Lord Brahma's work in Hindu countries. Does it mean he also exists?

FxMasterz:
Of what use would that be to you? Aren't you a die-hard atheist who mocks the Living God every day?

You've chosen your path already. Just keep moving. You will soon know the truth.

Translation. "I don't the bible verse. I lied"
Ok. Have a nice day then

Aemmyjah:
1. Again, it depends on tradition and Culture. You can't always depend ok dictionary and society to tell you what is acceptable or not... Just as they are modifying the definition of marriage and sexuality... Besides, there was no law yet as the nation of Israel had not been formed. Even Abraham married his half sister... What does Evolution say about incest?

2. No, I have just healed or saved someone na.. When will stupid questions end?

3. Where does atheists sense of altruism and/or humanists come from?

4. What does evolution say is your purpose? It says your life is purposeless, useless and meaningless... I hope it makes you feel so good... Fake docto6

Image123:
Prayer changes things na. It's like percentage of time spent online or reading. You must direct appropriately.
You might be reading more than someone who uses his own reading to get PhD, but are you reading right?
You might be online more than someone who works and earns money online. What are you doing online? Same logic with prayers.

As an aside, 90% of those people on this table are praying to the wrong person.

So what difference did the 10% that prayed to the 'right' person make since the country is still worse off?

Armaggedon:
when you pray for a better Nigeria but vote in unwell people, what are you doing?

But at least you prayed to Yahweh. Isn't he supposed to guide you after praying? Didn't he say when you call on him, he'll answer?

englishmart:
Judging by your analysis, most people are atheists.

Never engage MadMax in logic, its not worth the stress

AnAbnormalHuman:
The problem isn't the acclaimed miracles.

The problem is, are you for, or against Christ. Focus on that.

Cos you see those acclaimed miracles, there'll come a time you'll see bigger things than that live with your own eyes. And the miracles will 100% be performed by satanic forced under the guise of Pastors.

Don't try to limit anything yet, you'll see big stuff. Just dig in whatever is the truth for you. Hopefully, the truth shall set you free

Nigga, its either your weed supplier is a hardworking man or your weed is spiked with crystal meth

Aemmyjah:
Oga
What has God got to do with something that came in a lab? I don't know if it it true it came in a lab or biological. Yet, blind atheist blame God
They'll even blame God for global warming

Did Yahweh create everything in this world or not? I need a yes or no answer
