how your prayer would be accepted while you claim you're on true religion. In fact you are not guided. You go to church, talk to your leader, your family. Pray your eyes closed or open. And you don't know what trinity meant but you accepted it |

I shouldn't be here. But prayer is a guide to success in life (mind your definition of success). Someone has answered it all; all prayers are accepted. Its either a YES or a NO or a WAIT. All these are for the best of the requester. You might request for a car which might eventually kill you; but if u are righteous God would say no. Or you request for riches and God knows dat would make you far from him. But what influence your prayer is wat the op has listed. I tell u the first and the last point are very important. Bad guys don't get their prayer guided. If dey request for riches and all sort of evil power stuff, dey get it and eventually its worst for them only if they knew. Lastly, it's required we pray. although if we don't, God still provides for all of us because he is the one that provide for all his creatures. Mind u everybody can't be rich and every wishes can't be granted; its part of God's arrangement. |

You don't get answered prayers when you are not thinking. Answered prayers are actions taken to solve problems. |

What is the meaning of genuine TRUTH? Behold TRUTH means certitude, verity, candour, fact, belief, certainty, sincerity honesty.see John 8,32 here is the reason we speak with UNBELEIVABLE POWER and truth and tell those who care to listen to investigate the truth and revelation that we speak and usually we don't expect humanbeings to accept easily because truth has very very few friends and after all we say humanbeings should not do fasting and night vigil before JESUSCHRIST can hear them but who has accepted that truth even to ask how to and no one ever cares to ask because they have been schooled and trained in that form and traditions since their bornagain journey and they also forget that such as we declare and proclaim could also be seen as miracle of God which bornagains also pray for and even asking the same JESUSCHRIST to do a new THING and how come they humanbeings refuse to accept this unique one which we could term or declare to be no fasting no night vigil as a great Devine miracle and a new thing?ask your self why humanbeigns refuse to key into this never heard before truth&revelation of God of justice? Why not be wise and check and accept before it is too late? We have spoken again to the whole world and those who have ear let them hear what the spirits are speaking which are spirits, life and power.only time will tell after all how many years ago did JesusChrist come and declare that he was the only true son of GOD that came from heaven and same people like you did not believe him but today the same u is shouting I love JesusChrist and I am born again |

Happy sunday brethren. You might be praying to God for something very essential, might be a job, admission, finances, marriage, fruit of the womb but you dont receive speedily answers and at times you pray for years and it still doesnt work out. Relax there are skeletons in the cupboard you need to fish out that is witholding answers to your prayers. Listen attentively.Scripture states that God does not answer the prayers of the unrighteous; the pleas and requests and every petition of the unrighteous are tainted by their sins(disobedience/unholiness) and are hence an abomination to God. So, what is definite is that even your many pleas for the forgiveness of sins are not answered by God given that God made no special exemptions for that kind of pleas. No amount of praying can cause God to change His mind regarding that which concerns the unrighteous by the way. So if you are thinking of prescribing more prayers that only means you really don't understand or know God at all. God, however, openly bragged about how He only answers the prayers of the righteous; He delights in granting them the desires of their heart meaning that they are those who are loved by Him. For this very reason, Jesus Christ urged His followers to seek first the Kingdom of God and God's Righteousness in order that all things— the blessings and rewards of the Kingdom of God(holiness), answers to prayers included—shall be added on to them. And as Jesus Christ explained in His Gospel, the only way to become Holy, and then also Righteous, is by way of continuous submission and obedience to the teachings and commandments of Jesus Christ, god's Truth and Law in the Kingdom of god - John 8 vs 31 - 36 & John 14 vs 15 - 23. Jesus Christ is the only way. Obedience to the Truth of God is the one and only path to righteousness. No amount of praying and other religious rituals can accomplish that. You need to understand the meaning of the word "amiss" in order to realize what James was instead trying to tell you in that verse that you pulled from his epistle. If you consult Webster's dictionary, you will find that the word means to be in an imperfect state, a state that is not in the right order aka unrighteous. AmissWhat James was saying in that verse is that the reason you do not receive from God is that you are asking in an unrighteous state—a state that is not in accordance with God's mandate of righteousness. So, clearly, you cannot benefit anything from remaining in an unrighteous state as far as God is concerned. That is what God said, and James reiterated it in that verse there. |

DebbyChris:These list do not change anything as God made it clear that it is instead your unrighteousness that stands in the way of answers to prayers, etc. |

Demmzy15:The problem is most of you have abandoned scripture entirely in order to propose your own private ideas as a replacement for that which God in fact said. You see, Scripture states that God does not answer the prayers of the unrighteous; the pleas and requests and every petition, praise, offering, work, plea, sacrifice, etc., of the unrighteous are tainted by their sins(disobedience/unholiness) and are hence an abomination to God. So, what is definite is that even your many pleas for the forgiveness of sins are not answered by God given that God made no special exemptions for that kind of plea. No amount of praying can cause God to change His mind regarding that which concerns the unrighteous by the way. So if you are thinking of prescribing more prayers that only means you really don't understand or know God at all. God, however, openly bragged about how He only answers the prayers of the righteous; He delights in granting them the desires of their heart meaning that they are those who he loves. For this very reason, Jesus Christ urged His followers to seek first the Kingdom of God and God's Righteousness in order that all things— the blessings and rewards of the Kingdom of God(holiness), answers to prayers included—shall be added on to them. And as Jesus Christ explained in His Gospel, the only way to become Holy, and then also Righteous, is by way of continuous submission and obedience to the teachings and commandments of Jesus Christ, god's Truth and Law in the Kingdom of god - John 8 vs 31 - 36 & John 14 vs 15 - 23. Jesus Christ is the only way. Obedience to the Truth of God is the one and only path to righteousness. No amount of praying and other religious rituals can accomplish that. God deals indirectly with the unrighteous, the same way He deals with the unbelievers including the wicked and the ungrateful and that is by pouring out His mercy and kindness on them daily. So every time as an unrighteous you feel that God has answered your prayer know that at that same moment, or moments before that, God also provided the same mercy or similar to someone else across the world — or maybe just across from you— who does not even believe in God, nor asked God for anything. So, if answers from God are what you seek, then do what Jesus Christ said you should, which is to seek first the Kingdom of God(holiness), and then God's righteousness, in order that all these things —the blessings and rewards of the Kingdom of God(including answers to prayers) can be added to you. |
