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 [/quote] Style is not as important as the heart. And if there is a delay it will also be at the heart level; obsessions, addiction and love of society, fame and public adulation can be a hindrance. Outright and rebellious sin is a no no. But if I may suggest that if you are a contemplative person, learn to enjoy his presence over the gifts he hives. He is himself the ultimate gift. As you delight in him you will find a communication and maybe even the explanation for delayed prayers. He is after your character and a relationship.with you more than he to lavish gifts to your destruction. He gives gifts even to those who hate him. Gifts are not the clincher. Enjoy him alone, seek him for himself, spend time without an agenda and you will find yourself in the midst of a a mystery. Christ in you. Blessings. |

Which ever way you pray, but what is needed is your faith towards the prayer... While awaiting responses from prayer, God also uses other prayer to clear weeds for that need to be fulfilled. |

adadike: ![]() ![]() Its your relationship and faith in God that matters not your prayer VOLUME! Most believers become so aggressive while praying because of fear just like what you have already said.... Most Believers subconsciously 'elevate' the power of the demons....hence indirectly and erroneously equating their powers to that of God! Fear is the most powerful weapon the devil uses against believers! When a believer is afraid,the devil is already 80% in control of that person's subconscious no matter the person's prayer volume! Is it not surprising that most people who pray aggressively and apparently in a violent fashion are still the ones who get attacked easily by the devil? When Jesus and his disciples faced the storm,Jesus simply and calmly said "peace be still"! 1 Like |

Sometimes l pray in low key and sometimes l pray aggressively and in anyways, it depends on the environment...but no matter what, l don't like people listen to my prayer request unto God. |

Lexusgs430: U are very correct bro. Men of God have become small gods and the power of money has consumed their attention. It not supposed to be so and that’s why the Bible expressly says u cannot serve God and mammon at same time. Jesus did not control the purse of the disciples it was Judas and money consumed him sadly also. Men of God must free themselves of too many monetary concerns and focus on the real matters. Let me take my leave on this topic now. Lol |

Samuel1402: Bible made reference to aggressive prayers. Do your bible reserch very well. My reverend always made mention of Jeremiah or Isaiah as reference point. |

matt. 6 : 5-8......... And when thou prayest, thou shalt not be as the hypocrites are ; for they love to pray standing in the synagogues and the corner of the streets, that they may be seen of men. verily i say unto you, they have their reward. v6... but thou, when thou prayest, enter into thou closet, and when thou hast shut thy door, pray to thy Father which is in secret; and thy Father which seeth in secret shall reward thee openly. v7....But when ye pray, use not vain repetitions, as the heathen do: for they think that they shall be heard for their much speaking. v8...Be not ye therefore like unto them: for your Father knoweth what things ye have need of before ye ask him.(close quote) our Father knows your needs already but He has given you the opportunity to ask for those things by yourself. Now tell me do you need to yell(shout)? of course no! you don't shout at your earthly father when you ask for school fees, like wise your Heavenly Father. However, you need faith in this course. |

There is no best way. As long as we do not inconvenience our neighbour, you can pray in whatever way you can. Let's stop looking for what is not missing abeg. Let's be guided. Thanks and Happy Sunday. |

Let your heart be pure and concentrated unto God. Pray aggressively as Daniel prayed to God, Paul and Silas also did the same thing inside prison and you see the miracle God performed. There is no gentleman in prayer especially when war you are facing is older than your age. |

My brother, pray as the Spirit of God leads you. God answers all our prayers when we come to him the right way. He cannot behold iniquity so you must come clean and make your request according to his will. By the way, his will may be now or later or in the distant future. If you are not receiving answers yet, it doesn't mean he has not heard, keep on praying about it, you will surely get there. Praying time is planting time. Harvest is coming. |

Really depends on the mood...prayer is our life as spiritual beings...just as in our everyday physical reality we have moods for different occasions, in our prayer life its sometimes a passive few words that moves Mountains, sometimes its a joyful song and sometimes its an aggressive prayer that does the trick...in all you do #StayBlessed |

I do feel for the Christians on NL, aswear. Just two topics on FP for Sunday oh! Muslims dey enjoy privilege offline and online(with their boring topics). The mods are just too blinded by their sentiments to realise Christian topics will attract more views than Islamic threads. I'm neither a Christian nor Muslim though! I just dey notice so many wickedness and bias here. Make I read the post and arguments sef ![]() |
