Saying Prayers Is Useless, It Doesn't Work by JackDaAlienz(m): 10:21pm On Feb 28, 2023 |
In 2019, my mother was part of a charismatic prayer group that fasted for 2 weeks praying for Buhari not be elected. Upon all the fasting, Buhari won 2023 she tried to force us to join her group for praying for Peter obi. I told her that she is wasting her time All the prayers she has been praying since 2019 for a better Nigeria, still Nigeria gets more messed up. Today I caught her crying alone in dinning room, turns out she was crying because of election results I asked her why her prayers didn't work ![]() I have always said that prayers don't work, church is scam filled with fake testimony to decieve members 15 Likes 2 Shares |

Even the Bible said , heaven helps those who helps themselves. Same Bible also said , faith without work is death. Tinubu has worked hard for years and is only reaping the fruits of not only his hardwork but smart work. 26 Likes 1 Share |

JackDaAlienz: Well, the universe is set up based on certain LAWS. These are LAWS that cannot be broken. One of those laws seems to be that if we BELIEVE totally, we'll create whatever we believe. In other words we are co-creators of reality. It is not the prayer, it is the power of the belief. Even the Bible said Lord Jesus COULD NOT perform many miracles in his hometown because they DIDN'T BELIEVE HE COULD! 6 Likes

JackDaAlienz:Now , I'll explain something to you. You must understand that being a realist is different from being emotional You are a realist while your mum is religious. People who are religious are usually emotional and dogmatic. They will usually cast their hopes on Luck. However, if you are real and still can pray, you'd realise prayer is not useless. Have you ever asked yourself why rich people are usually lesser in number than poor people and also the church usually have more poor people than rich people? It's because the poor ones depend on prayer for luck while the rich ones only use prayers to back up hardwork 16 Likes 2 Shares |

Prayer works just like affirmation & all these positive self talk. It helps to condition your βspiritβ (inner man). Mistake people make with prayer is that they try to project their thoughts in form of prayers to act on an external situation. Whereas, the prayer is only useful to self. My facking opinion, though. 1 Like |

JackDaAlienz: Lol no 1 before praying was your mother truly living a godly life ? 2: God gave we humans freedom.. he doesn't necessarily interfere in everything ( maybe unless you call on him and it should be personal ) 3 : as your mom was praying for him not to enter .. that's how another person was praying for him to enter .... now if you were God who would you answer ?? .. God didn't mess Nigeria up .. we Nigerians and humans generally messed it up ( Britain NO 1 offender in this aspect ) Learn to think properly before talking Pray that God help you and your family to Japa ..some people like suffering and you can't control others Sleep tight 7 Likes 1 Share |

PoliteActivist:The church I attended previously was heavily polluted by marine spirit which I was aware. So doing a night prayer a particular preacher was praying against priscipalities and power operating in the church and I was the one shouting the highest amen when the prayer was going on. Omo as I reach House and sleep then I just appear at the front door of my church seeing one of my church members which is also a big woman in the church attacking to kill me In my dream. This woman started pressing me and I can see my heart beat detorating as somebody that is given up his ghost and I shouted Jesus then my heart beat started beating very fast again and then she started repressing me and my heart beat started reducing the second time as a dying person and I reshouted Jesus and my heart started beating fast then when she wanted to try it the third time I over power her and was able to break the pressing bond and wake up around 11:55 PM. That thing happen within 5 minutes as I slept in my bed as if she dey wait for me to sleep. When next she saw me physically shame want to kill her but as for now we just dey mind our business but sometimes she enter my dream boasting that she would make me useless for life and told me that even though I know she is a marine agent I can't prove it to people around. 3 Likes 1 Share |

OP In Reality, not ALL prayers that you pray that works. ![]() In the Bible, Some Persons like Jesus' discples prayed without getting answers! But know dat, Human Efforts MUST BE PUT BEFORE prayers! E.g. If Your Relative has an accident, First thing to do is get Money ready for Hospital Bills, Meet and Try to obey the Doctors instructions B4 going for Prayers! Pray without Work is Dead! ![]() 2 Likes |

Prayers should be a personal thing between you and your God. It is asking the Divine to intervene in what looks like a fruitless effort you have put into something you have worked tirelessly for to attain. Remember Hannah prayed to God earnestly for a child after several fvcking that didn't yeild positive result and God answered because the couple had worked hard at it...even in prayers. Prayers without work is like wishful thinking. So be guided. 1 Like |
