First of all, many things we pray for here are already covered by the systems that are in place abroad. Abroad, the scripture which tells us that God's Divine Power has already provided everything we require for life and godliness (2 Peter 1 v 3) has already been fulfilled in practical terms. Working justice systems, electricity, water, functioning hospitals, infrastructure, transportation systems, etc are already in place.

These are things people are still praying for in 3rd world countries, whereas prayer should really be to enhance our spiritual wellbeing and to commune with God, not necessarily praying about things that God-given human intellect has already dealt with in saner climes.

Also, whether we like it or not, the coming of the white man to Africa brought education and opportunity to us. If you are working abroad, or working remotely like me, we owe those opportunities to the white man.

Imagine the minimum wage of a professional footballer in the NPFL is N250,000. That is $161 a month! Even a player in Vietnam earns three times this amount. VIETNAM OOO. Not China where the lowest salary in the CFL is $1500 a month. Even footballers in Afghanistan are paid $300 a month.

You see how backward we are and why people are always praying (mostly about material stuff) so their lives can get upliftment via divine intervention?

Prayer and the worship of God is PRIMARILY for our spiritual edification. God placed Adam in a garden that had everything at that time, yet still came down to have communion and fellowship with him in the cool of the day. A man without a belief system built around prayer and fellowship with God, is like a man that is naked and does not know he is naked and exposed. Only when an attack comes will he realize too late, that he is exposed.

Because all what they have been praying for is there.

And the OP is still in Nigeria, never travel to Benin republic.

The reason most times is because what you are fervently and violently praying for here has already been made available over there. So na to just dey praise God in a soft tone remain😁

Most religious people take out that part " a choosen people and a holy people" . That simply translate is your home is in heaven but God wants you to be part of making his world. Any religious person that thinks moving overseas brings him closer to God is living in his own illusions. So far I have realised that most religious people, if given power tend to be more wicked, unreasonable and heart hearted. I know of one, she knows herself.

Psychological programming is the worst form of slavery because it transcends generations. You can take a pig out of the slum but you cannot take the slum out of the pig. If he does the programme a hundred times, they will still show up proving that it is not the solution to anything that plagues them.

Everything you pray come by fire and die by fire, is already made over there. Just establish yourself and start enjoying life.

I thought as much.

Daddy GOs don't perform miracles when they're out of the country. It's mostly concert for entertainment but when they're in Nigeria, miracles everywhere.

God is merciful sha.

Rain doesn't fall in Sahara desert, when yiu may term a miracle here could considered a medical condition in developed societies.

Because they learned heaven is our Abroad

Cognitive restructuring ✨

Because they see you don't need to pray to get things u want

U don't pray for healing u have free health care

You don't pray for job there are high paying jobs if u have the qualification

You don't pray for admission

You don't really pray for food, safety and the rest

Healing and good health belongs to God.

Safety is of the Lord also.

So yes, while good government helps, you can take the best drugs and be under the care of the best doctor and yet die.

Ask the average Nigerian to describe their idea of God and Jesus and 99.9% of them would describe a WHITE man.
When they travel abroad, they are surrounded by white people. They are in heaven. The fact that 100% of the problems plaguing them in Nigeria has already been solved by the white people in the new country HELPS.
Religion reigns SUPREME where poverty and ignorance is prevalent. The poorer and less educated a people are, the more susceptible they are to religious MANIPULATIONS.
That's why the core Northern parts of Nigeria is a hot bed for religious EXTREMISM. Poverty and lack of education makes them easier to brainwash.

@BOLDED....thumbs up Man!

This thing is like a concert to them nw. Why wouldn't it be packed? You can't compare it to the average Nigerian living in Nigeria, who goes to church every Sunday, midweek services and night vigils.

My grandfather once said, we are wasting our time and resources going to church in order to enter heaven, he said heaven is white man land.
I have been reasoning about that.

People pray and still die...

Both on the right and left side of the Ibadan expressway is filled up with churches and other various worship centres who bought several thousand plots of land just for the sake of building a place in other to swindle people and you begin to think what is really the problem with us as country

Just imagine if those place are factories for productions or even farmlands, I'm not sure the country would be so messed up the way it is right now. Truly government have their own fault but we the citizens too have a lot of faults too especially those who are rich enough to site an establishment to help the economy but chose to build big churches all round the country.

So if those churches were factories what would happen?
Where is Glaxo Smithkline right now?
Where is Procter & Gamble right now?
Where is Guiness right now
Where's the other company making Huggies baby diaper right now?

Church pays better abeg
Only churches can survive an economy run by morons.

Imagine dem say a white man died for the sins of a black man. The first big lie told in history.

Yes. Elisha died of sickness because it was his time.

His bones had power...a dead man was thrown into Elisha's grave and the man was revived back to life.

So, yes. You can know God and still die.

But safety and health are of God.

Because the economy of the countries abroad are good and better m.. and their government provides good goverance for their citizens and better life and better standard of living and over there in abroad they do not have evil demonic spirits, witch Craft, village people tormenting them over there

Zonefree:
Moving abroad is the answer to all their prayers. You don't campaign after winning an election.

That’s why religion should be about salvation and eternity, not about poverty, witches and prosperity.
