What Is The Most Silly Seemingly Impossible Thing You've Ever Asked God For? by Nobody: 2:01pm On Jan 21, 2020
We are rational beings. I know. But sometimes we get really outrageous with what we demand from God.

For me, I so liked one particular babe that I deliberately kept asking God to change my genotype from AS to AA because the babe is also AS.

Kindly share with us

I've prayed about that genotype thing, too... my faith was at an all-time high...did a test and it was showing AA. Must have been a fake result because my most recent verified result says otherwise.

My very special miracle till date was when I was in JS1. My school offered accelerated promotion to exceptional students JS1 to JS3. As far as everyone was concerned, I was a bright student... but I knew better. I was very horrible at Math. To qualify for the accelerated promotion, I needed an average of 85% in 5 key subjects, including English and Mathematics. My overall average was supposed to be 90 thereabouts.

First term passed, 2nd term passed... And my Mathematics was still not there. I had put in my very best effort, but it still wasn't getting me that 85% average.

See, so much was at stake. You see, I was a tall/big kid and it made me feel like I was too old for my class, even though I was just 12 going on 13. I had two besties who were certainly going to get that accelerated promotion, so I didn't want to be left out.

Third term came... it was going to be my last shot. First test came, for some very ungodly reason, I scored 3/15. I cried for a week. That was when I went to God in prayers...a child in need of a miracle. smiley I made a vow, too... and then I got back to studying everyday. Second test 15/15... Exam 69/70. I still didn't know if that was enough. Couldn't count my chickens before they were hatched.

Result collection day... the most anticipated day of my entire secondary school life. I simply went straight to the end comment... I made it! I came second in class, too. My Mathematics average wasn't 85... it was 77... but my other subjects were way above 85.

God must have shown them that I really wanted that accelerated promotion. I may have been in the war room while the exam committee had been deliberating. cheesy

My life is filled with stories of God showing up like that... smiley

***Modified***
That event is particularly significant in my life because it marked the point where I really believed that God answers prayers... It strengthened my faith in Him. God's done much more for me since then... I simply just can't forget the beginning of my audacious faith. smiley

When God said to ask him of anything there were no restrictions. I've seen HIV patients get cured, SS turned to AA, an amputated leg growing back. Trust me, whatever you think is " seemingly impossible" is actually so so easy with God. You just have to have a right standing with him, to get him answer your prayer.
Ps somewhere in psalms or Isaiah God said and I quote " A cattle upon a thousand hills are mine, if I were hungry I will never ask you". What can't he do?

as long as you just sit, and "pray", everything is impossible for god.

all of your gods put together - yahweh, allah, osun, them all combined, cannot do the easiest of things without man's intervention.

they do not speak nor fight, man speaks and fights for them.
they do not cure diseases, man studies diseases, the causal organisms, and then ways to cure and prevent them.
they do not prevent tragedy, provide food, eliminate poverty or help man in any ways. man does all these things for himself.

what can your god do that an engineer, a chef, a scientist, an astronaut, a singer, and Beckham cannot do? NOTHING.

i think its asking God to help me "wash" bitterleaf cheesy

Decades ago, i was assigned by my mom with the task of washing bitterleaf after school for ofe onugbo later in the day. Before i left for school, i went to the backyard to pluck the needed quantity of onugbo, threw them into a bowl, added a little water , covered it up and left for school. While in school, i remember praying silently to God that he should do a miracle and send angel gabriel to wash the bitterleaf for me before i come back from school. cheesy

That prayer was unanswered angry

It's so sad that you didn't acknowledge the fact that you put in more effort, read harder and went all in
I think as human we should not always undermine our ability to achieve whatever we sets our mind to. We can achieve anything it's just depends on how badly we want them

for you to say that there's nothing god cannot do, it's a mere "belief" and I have no problems when you exercise your beliefs verbally.

however, one has to be the greatest liar to ever live when he/she "claims" to have witnessed an amputated limb grow back, or ss genotype magically transforming to something else, as a result of prayers and miracle of his/her god.

if you can lie like this for a god that doesn't live, you can actually kill people like us who would rather question the silly things you believe, than believe and join in circulating your lies.

Ohh. I did study hard. But I know me very well. Without His grace, I may not have been able to put in the effort...

It is by His grace that we are able to do all that we do.

True, God's grace is always sufficient for us. And that's why we must push and strive harder for what we want.

There is seriously no need for us to argue, if one can believe that God can raise the dead, then what's an amputated leg to him. When he said nothing is impossible for him, he wasn't mixing words.

Well, I asked for a pencil. I had walked all the way from my hostel to school to study and realized I left my pencil at home. I cannot study without one.

I asked. I got it.
