Why Do Christian Men Uncover Their Head During Prayer. by gbanapere(m): 8:48am On Jul 22, 2022
Good morning nairalanders, my question is why do Christian men have to uncover their head during prayers mean while their female counterparts does the opposite.

I would like to know if they is any implication for not uncovering your head during prayers as a Christian man. And secondly do our Muslims faithful also uncover their head during prayers ?

It is simply a sign of respect for the Almighty God. It's more like a courtesy to honor your maker.

Similarly to when you want to give an elder something you use your right hand as culture and respect demands.

1. There is nothing Christian about covering one's head or not covering one's head. Those ideas are of the traditions of men and mean absolutely nothing as far as honor to God. undecided

2. The only way to honor God is through submission and obeedience of Jesus Christ's teachings and commandments and since Jesus Christ never asked anyone to worry about issues like covering of hair, those of you who do it in His name, sin against God in your ignorance of His Truth, Jesus Christ. undecided

These ideas are of the imaginings of the hearts of men and not of God. God is not honored by your coverings since He made it abundantly clear that the only way to please Him, to Honor Him, is to obey His teachings and commandments to you through Jesus Christ. undecided

Because Woman was the first in the whole earth to sin like Satan, and God has a thing for the first, and by this mess up, she is the one who destroyed mankind and God's plan for man as whole.

Therefore, like a guilty criminal, she can not show her face to God, for God is very very angry with her, as her destruction of mankind is still going on.

So she can not even come near God not to talk of showing herself.

Thus, the covering of herself is the mark of her shame and her acceptance that she knows that she is very guilty up to the extent that she knows that God should not see her.

So covering herself shows that she has made herself a small and low thing before God.

Prayer is communicating with supernaturals so it doesn't necessarily mean all prayers are directed to the same God.
Of all the Gods ever mentioned throughout history only the God of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob referred to Himself as the rightful King over His worshipers while other Gods permit their worshipers to engage several Gods! Exodus 20:1-3
The title GOD connotes SUPREME BEING which means one who has the right to set standards regarding what is right or wrong, but other Gods allow for assistants hence humans who are serving as second in command or demigods are the ones people do see and revere highly, that's why they always remove their head cover in the presence of a King since only the King should put on a head cover in a gathering and their head cover is called CROWN.
So the crown on the king's head demands that all other coverings on the heads of males must be removed in the presence of the King that's the tradition from time immemorial.
In Christianity there are two Kings:
God Almighty and Jesus Christ.
The God of Israel promised to establish the thrown of David (an Israelite King) forever {Isaiah 9:7} Jesus is that greater David {Luke 1:32-33 compare to Ezekiel 34:23-24} the men of Israel always remove their head cover in the presence of David but David himself always remove his head cover in the presence of God who is his own King too:

As for the four living creatures, each one of them had six wings; they were full of eyes all around and underneath. And continuously, day and night, they say: “Holy, holy, holy is Jehovah God, the Almighty, who was and who is and who is coming.” Whenever the living creatures give glory and honor and thanksgiving to the One seated on the throne, the One who lives forever and ever, the 24 elders fall down before the One seated on the throne and worship the One who lives forever and ever, and they cast their crowns before the throne, saying: “You are worthy, Jehovah our God, to receive the glory and the honor and the power, because you created all things, and because of your will they came into existence and were created.” Revelations 4:8-11

The head of each individual owns the crown!
1Corinthians 11:3
