edoairways: Right. I wanted to confirm. First of all the idea that you feel that there are delays means you have an expectation that prayer is like a slot machine. You put in money and out comes the money. This doesn't look like a healthy relationship. Did you learn nothing during that time, no growth in character, no new skills or abilities, no added tenacity or resiliency, no change in perspective? A transactional mindset with God will allows look like one full of delays because his time frames are quite different as are his goals. I am convinced though that if you review the delay carefully, you will find that it has worked for your good. I remember when I travelled to do my A levels. I encountered a lot of racism in the town where my school was and I missed my secondary schoolfriends so much that I wrote an emotional letter to my father to bring me back to Nigeria. I even thoughtfully pointed out how much money he would save. I never got a reply. I was so disappointed but fast forward a eighteen months I was overjoyed my request had been turned down. We see from a very limited perspective. So your persistent delays could well centre around the same trait or desire - whatever it is that getting you a no. 2 Likes |

KingBaba1: What makes prayer powerful is faith not how you pray. If I pray aggressively with faith I will get the same results if I pray gently with faith. 2 Likes |

KingBaba1: Prayer is communication to God. Prayer can take any form depending on your spirit. The most important is the condition of your heart and faith as prayer can take place anywhere Jesus even advocates secluded prayer as he says go into your closet, close your door and your Father who sees in secret will reward you. It is not about how violent your prayer is that you will get answers. In Daniel 10:12 Daniel's request was granted from the first day he prayed but no manifestation because of delay by the territorial demonic powers It was his consistency, maintaining holiness, patience and willingness to listen that made God to send Gabriel to end the delay. Remember Eph 6:12 we wrestle not against flesh and blood.....According to Phil 4:6-7, may God hear us as we present our requests to him. 2 Likes |

KingBaba1: Aggressive, violent, cool or calm to an extent all of these approach depends on the situation on ground or the mood you find yourself. A few examples from the Bible are as follows: Psalms 55:17 Evening, and morning, and at noon, will I pray, and cry aloud: and he shall hear my voice. 1 Samuel 1:13 Now Hannah, she spake in her heart; only her lips moved, but her voice was not heard: therefore Eli thought she had been drunken. Above all the best approach is for you to rely on the holy Spirit to lead you. John 14:26 But the Comforter, which is the Holy Ghost, whom the Father will send in my name, he shall teach you all things, and bring all things to your remembrance, whatsoever I have said unto you. Romans 8:26 Likewise the Spirit also helpeth our infirmities: for we know not what we should pray for as we ought: but the Spirit itself maketh intercession for us with groanings which cannot be uttered. Hope this will help you. 1 Like |

KingBaba1:use these ideas to help in your prayers (be warned, it may appear a radical readjustment) Before I commence though, you must know a basic truth, that it's not your actions that determine your answer, it's God's action. the ideas: 1. Pray with respect to God as you would a very strong king. 2. Pray with faith to him as you would your earthly father. (think, if it were my Dad I need something like this from, would I shout at him? would I cry? on some occasions, maybe when you have persistently ask for your school fees and the situation is getting tough, u might cry. 3. Don't have bitterness in mind. 4. don't ask for selfish things especially things that don't honor God. 5. ask always with the awareness that God is nearer to you than even your ears. 6. it's OK, if your emotions, temperament and personality take the best of you. God understands. know though that you can't order God about. 7. ask always in the name of Jesus Christ, having in mind what the name means and what it stands for i.e all that Christ has done for us. 2 Likes |

You know prayer can be done anywhere and anytime. I wonder why u have to be aggressive.You should calm down and explain things 2 our father,He must hear you,just believe and be patient. Strangely when am in church i dont even close eyes talkless of to pray sef,I prefer staying isolated so that me and BABA can reason well. 1 Like |

Aladdin1:God & sit-down my sister. Re u apostle Paul?? Once u start studying d Bible with Jehovah's witnesses, u take to heart what u ve learned from there, u believe in ur heart that Jesus d Christ is d son of d only living God Yahweh & came to earth in d flesh. Once u begin to hate what Jehovah hates, strive to walk in d footsteps of his son Jesus Christ as written there in d Bible, asking d true God for his holy spirit to help u live ur life for him. Automatically, u come under d protective wings of d true God. It's simple as that. Demons will depart from ur presence they themselves will avoid u like a plaque, if u move into a hunted house, they will pack out for u Walayi. Nothing like sleep paralysis. U ve become d eye ball of d living God if d entire universe, whosoever that is touching u, will be putting his/her finger into d eyesof d true God, & u know what that means. Where in dbible did any demon torment any of d Israelites anywhere , as they journey in d wilderness to d promised land, nothing like that. D true Godcaredfor them as good mother dey take nurture her baby. 1 Like |
