I try to solve my problems, while prayer is just to go into the presence of God to praise him because it is joy to see what God does, God already knows all my problem, so i don't need to say much about my problems to him. What i need is truth and the presence of God

Praying is one of the oldest forms of scams.......

Prayer is what you do, when you have nothing else to offer. Hoping one spiritual being would answer it..... FALSE.........

you are joking right? Google up the benefits of prayers.

Impressive

Pray according to the number of problems u have

Just pray anyhow as led by the Holy ghost.

So because Google says prayers works, i should believe it........ NO NO NO

Prayer is a scam........

It depends on the situation demands. Prayers of thanksgiving is different from intercessory prayers. And the latter also comes with the degree of importance or emotional attachment.

For example, the mood of Jesus at the tomb of Lazarus (though with weeping) is different from His travails in the garden of Getsemane.

The severity prayer for career breakthrough also varies with the urgency and desperation for divine intervention, and the number of times such individual has hit the brickwalls of failure and disappointment.

Trust me, its better to be a friend of God, than a beggar of God. God knows all what you need already, there is no need to worry in his presence.

Even jesus self pray sweat turn blood
Elijah self bend hin head towards hin yansh to pray

SCAM ALERT!!!
U DEY DER

What we need is accurate truth, about the loving merciful God, who is slow to anger but terrible in Judgement

According to the Bible verses below, it's very simple to deduce how to pray.

Matthew 6:5
"Also when you pray, you must not be like the hypocrites, for they love to pray standing in the synagogues and on the corners of the streets, that they may be seen by people. Truly I tell you, they have their reward [4]in full already."

Matthew 6:6
"But when you pray, go into your [most] private room, and, closing the door, pray to your Father, Who is in secret; and your Father, Who sees in secret, will reward you in the open."

Paperwhite:
Do pray without attracting attention as Jesus Christ taught us.Showmanship is not prayer/praying.

Are you talking about the same Jesus that prayed with a loud voice at the tomb of Lazarus.?

Aggressive prayer is not showmanship.

Prayer must be fervent.

Non of the above but PRAYER OF FAITH AND THANKSGIVING and if nothing seems to be working join FASTING to it and if no change, Sow dangerous SEEDS (somethings that are valuable to you). And don't give up. When the cloud is full of rain, it empty itself upon the earth.

You can pray in a closet and still pray loudly.
You can stay in the corner of the streets and pray quietly.

This scripture does not apply to the question.

If you want to ask God for something pray calmly,you can't ask your father for something aggressively. But if you want to pray and cast the demons away pray aggressively..my opinion

The problem with u guys is u want to be in denial or against anything God.

Prayer is a higher form of meditation. Meditation is not done by only Christians so don’t be scared even in science they can encourage meditation. It tunes ur mind and u may not know this bt ur mind and ur tongue are one of the greatest and most powerful tools u have.

When a christian prays to the Universal Sovereign, he conducts himself in a manner that shows respect and sincerity irrespective of the concern- Psalm 138:6. Most important is that prayers should be channelled in line with God's will in order that the prayers are heard . We can be confident that God who is ''the hearer of prayers'' gives attention to the earnest prayers of his servants- psalm 65:2.

The kingdom of God suffereth violent only the VIOLENT taketh by force.You must be violent to some stubborn issues.

You must realise that the devil is real and only hears violent prayers and the word of God in full Faith in God.

Above all, obedient is better than sacrifce. When you obey and does his will, then issues of life and satan bows to you because your prayer will be more effective.

Thank you, Jesus.







you are worthy.

Thank you, Jesus.







you are worthy.

Personally, I'll choose a calm way and I believe the Lord will listen to me. My opinion though.

Is meditation prayer? My point is not based on one religion......

But across all forms of religion.....

Have you seen or heard the way Nigerian's pray, expecting miracles?

We have implemented too much prayers in our activities, which as clearly failed us, it's time to switch.......

If i have a business deal with someone, ant they invoke religion or prayers.... I pull the plug, because that person would eventually scam you........

Religion is a form of blindfolding people, attempting to cloud your true identity, under the guise of religion......

SCAM....

Exactly, but not very precise, Prayer is a way of connecting with God, its Good for our spirit beings, because it makes us stronger, and help to bring us closer to God, other benefit are more manifestation of God spirit, which helps us bear more good fruits, of patience, healing, faith, prophecy. etc

Six days later, around 1:47 AM you woke up as a result of a bad dream where you were about to be stabbed by this your business partner. Still trying to figure out what is happening, your phone rings at that odd hour......you check to know who is calling, your business partner's ID pops up.

Prayer is a scam........

Atheist spotted!!

Be calm n cool while doing your prayers...save some energy to accept the fact if your prayer was or was not accepted

What I know is whether calm or violent you have to be serious about it and show you really want the solutions to what you are praying for.

U can have all and still be good, because it depends on the circumstances and ur will to control it

Religious brainwashed person spotted....

My bro, it depends on the kind of prayer........

Samirana360:
as the spirit leads
....u can be calm while talking to God but aggressive when rebuking the devils cos those bastards have ear problem.....they no dey hear small small

this is precisely what I intended posting.

they exact way I was going to put it.





may the good Lord be with you.








Thank you, father.

[whatever method or approach you adopt is cool..what matters most is your level of faith. Without faith...if you like be aggressive...e no go move God. And also holiness matters]The scripture says the fervent prayer of the righteous availeth much, and this will want me to know the best way to pray according to the Bible and Christian belief.

1. We all know we are different type of human being and our approach to things differ alot.
We have the cool and calm beings, and also the stubborn and aggressive ones.

I see how pastor Adeboye preaches the gospel and pray in a cool and calm way and there are signs, wonders and testimony to that effect...

I also know some agressive preachers and prayer warriors like pastor Paul Adefarasin, N. duncan Williams and TD jakes.

Now, here is why i am writing this write up.

1. I sometimes feel i am too cool and calm in my prayers hence the delay or no answer i have in my prayer requests to the most high.

2. I believe in strategic form of prayer and i also do fast and pray when seeking the face of the lord on something... I don't usually think i am too cool or calm in prayers not until i started waiting endlessly for results.
If i am in a religious gathering, it depends on the leader of the prayer points and the prayer point itself that will determine my ginger and how aggressive i can be, but i don't see it going too hot or too cool.

3.what could be the delay of prayer request of somones need I feel satisfied inside of me when i pray in my own way and style. I don't really have privacy at the moment, and i am someone who really doesn't like people hearing my prayer point if it isn't in a religious gathering and general prayer.

I was born into Christianity and i served the lord in a church unit, but I will like to ask maybe there are ways i need to start praying that i don't know or practice for effective answers from the lord.

N. B. I know jehova witnesses don't pray loud or aggressive prayer, and i also know some other religious organization that doesn't do aggressive praying too.

So which one is which and how do one pray effective prayer with fasting without being aggressive
Your views and opinion will really help, and i will be more than delighted if u can do that with scripture references.

Thanks
