Prayer is an interaction with God, Jesus gave out a template on how prayers are to be made, this is called the Lord's prayer.
The following are some of the principles of prayer.

1. Prayer is to be addressed to the Father. Not that we cannot pray to Jesus, or address the holy Spirit but however it is not ideal, this is because there are roles and positions in the Trinity. The father is the primary source and father of us all including Jesus. Therefore prayers should be addressed to God the father not Jesus.

2 God should be addressed with absolute reverence and honor, our whole attention should be focused on the prayer, our language should be one of maximum honor and respect.

3. Our prayers should be kingdom centered not self centered to gratify our flesh remember he is the father of all spirits.

4. What we ask should be according to his will, not our lust .

5.prayers should be in the name of Jesus for this is our authority and right.

6. Avoid vain repetition, our words should be few.

7. Prayers of warfare of warfare and deliverance should be done in christ authority.

8. Don't demand for the death of any body, that alone can cancel your prayer.

9. Your spirit should be connected with the spirit of God, edify your spirit.

10. Praises and Thanksgiving should fill your heart instead of complaining and murmurings.

11. Ask what you need.

12 when praying listen to what the spirit is saying, after prayer expect what you have asked.

14. Dont tempt God. Like asking God for healing but ignore medical warning or refuse treatment, asking God for good result but you don't read, or knowing something is not right for you but asking God to give you anyway.

15. Some prayers actually need to be back up with fasting, some prayers need to be prayed prophetically, there are prayers we need to pray with other believers, that is why we must listen to the holy spirit ( I am going to write on how the holy spirit speak to us some day).

16. Infact before stating your request examine yourself to see if there is iniquity in you, ask for forgiveness and for the Lord to cleanse you and also you must have forgiven others also.
An unforgiven person cannot hope to get forgiveness but as Christians we forgive because christ has forgiven us.

Some Christians do not believe in asking God for the forgiveness of their sins because the scripture says God has already forgiven us.


While indeed we are forgiven of our sins in christ, however we still need to sanctify ourself and these require that we ask for forgiveness of our sins.

People do not get answers to their prayers because they pray wrongly.

Another useless post...... nigerians pray for everything......pray for water, pray for electricity, pray to get a visa, pray to pass an exam, pray for faeces to come out of their butt, after consuming mountain of Akpu and egusi daily for three days, pray for good roads, pray for good job etc

Nicholaspepe:
I see you asking GOD for forgiveness, i see u becoming a Pastor, i see u propargating the Gospel, i see u winning souls for the kingdom. These i have seen.

Ok..

Imagine some one praying ukraine should defeat russia

While russia has only acted in self defence

People talk about children suffering and probably dying

Oya wait, the missile nato want to place in ukraine is for who?

Goat and ram
No be human beings

And most likely women and children will suffer the most

History has already explained why

lol

As far as the prayer of a child of God is concerned, God answers.
Answer could be YES, NO or WAIT.
What most Christians view as answers to prayers is only YES. Whereas God May be saying NO or WAIT
BOTTOM LINE: GOD ANSWERS PRAYERS OF HIS CHILDREN

You started on a wrong foot.

You pray to the Father THROUGH Jesus.

No one comes to the Father except THROUGH Him(Jesus)

The apostles PRAYED "IN JESUS NAME"

huj

I'll try again..God bless you

tremilatre:
Simply because we pray out if emotion and without biblical guidance.
I never for once read about Jesus or the apostles praying "fall down and die" or against their enemies.
They never pray for blessing. We pray about vain things and expect to get answers. God is not vain.
The Lord's prayer is a good guide to how we should pray.

3 John 2

Apostle John prays for
Good health, physical and spiritual prosperity

Apostle John says, “Beloved, I pray that you may prosper in all things and be in health, just as your soul prospers.”

So on point, I would gladly buy this if it is turned into a book

We do not get responses to our prayers for many reasons. However, the three major factors or hinderances why our prayers are not answered are:

1. Praying amidst
2. Not seeking for mercy (isaiah 58)
3. Prayer request against God’s will

LordReed:
So do you always get answers to your prayers?

answer this question pls.... and don't lie. The truth only.

Let me give you a little Prayer request heavenly secrets

When we pray... Spiritually our request is package in an envelope and sent to heaven

The angels in charge of prayer request recivce your prayer request package

They picked it up and read through it...
One of the angel insert your letter request on an automatic live broadcast play..more of future display

Now the job of this live broadcast video is to show how whatever you requesting for will have impact in your life, is it going to be what will make you far away from God? Is it what will shorting your life? Is it what will stop you from making heaven...

Now the angel have decision on either...

Stalling your request and wait for appropriate time

They can aswell reject the request if it's going stop you from making heaven or hurting someone else

Finally they can grant it if the future visual display video shows you will manage the request gift very well and become productive for you and people around you....

My simple explanation

Summarise what you feel the reasons are,then we can talk

For me I don't pray too much, I approach life as it is, live a good life, and be hardworking, dat is my principle about life. Over praying and attending all the church activities doesn't make one a good Christian.
CHRISTIANITY IS LOVE
my opinion though

LordReed:
So do you always get answers to your prayers?

yes, but not always the way I expected.

Yes boss, and Phil 4:19 Apostle Paul prayed for God to "supply all your needs according to his riches in glory" and the Lord's prayer includes "give us this day, our daily bread".
Without doubt, we have needs and wants as humans , God isn't insensitive, he knows this. And that is where I relate with 2 Pet 1:3.
Many of us don't read our Bible, Ecclesiastes is one of the richest books ever written. It's a goldmine but many of us spend most of our prayer time asking for the miracle of blessings which is like winning the lottery. Our God is no magician.

You are wise.

I feel that God will NEVER answer certain prayers because we pray for the wrong reasons.

For instance, how do you expect God to bless you financially so you can pepper your haters? The same God who told us to love our enemies. It's never going to happen.

See, I told you the last time that Praying to God is not for everyone for it is written "the prayers of sinners is an Abomination to The Lord"

But you never put this caveat.

nonut:
Life is not fair to anyone.

Of course that is what Curses and Blessings is meant to separate.

hopefulLandlord:
people don't get answers to prayers cuz there's been no single study that points to prayer being useful.

So all the Seeing of people praying to get what they want vs. those who did not pray and did not get are not part of "studies" eh?

You err.

Because they call ordinary human being a god. It’s idol worship.

SIN!!! Is the major thing that courses blockages.for example:you are telling lies, committing fornication, you're stealing and you want your prayers to be answered is not possible.didn't the says you cannot be in sin and grace should be abound.
