We Christians have developed a mindset of always asking God to do this and do that for us as if that is the only reason He exists.

No...God wants you to worship him,to adore and praise him.
The 24 elders continually cast their crowns in worship to God without asking.

Its a wrong mindset to just keep asking and asking God to do one or two things for you.

After he does it,you ask and ask again.



If you have a friend that keeps asking and asking without appreciating or even giving you,what would you do.



Sometimes we just need to drop asking and asking and do just praising,worshipping and adoring.

Early today,i made a post here on Nairaland on ''5 Silly Reasons Why People Don't Go To Church These Days''

Below is one of the numerous replies a nairalander dropped


''if i go to church today to pray that this coming week, i want to get at least one employment letter from all the organizations i've sent applications to, and say i got at least one letter like i prayed for, believe me you would see me in church the following week to pray for something else seeing that the good lord above is living up to his expectation of omnipotent and the likes. But the prayer wasn't answered, probably it wasnt the right time for me because even though he is omnipotent, he couldnt have made it work for me anyways, so, the prayer wasnt answered. Now imagine this trend going on week in week out...i wouldnt be motivated to go to church i dont know if you (OP) would. The reasons you mentioned even though silly are just so people dont come off blasphemous so they dont appear to be politically incorrect. People are just beginning to realize prayer fixes nothing, you want sh!t done, you get off your @ss and do something about it other than just wasting valuable time appealing to someone who is probably on an eternal nap''


We still have a long way to Go.
May God help us.

In truth and in spirit.


Nice one op...


One can't just be fuckingg around anyhow and still be asking the lord for favors.

We have to first go back to the root of our predicaments and turn from our sins before the face of the lord turns to our matter.
