2020.11.02 Why most prayers are futile and unanswered
The harsh reality is that the vast majority of prayers are futile and are never answered. This article shares some thoughts on this topic with a view to helping you pray effectively.
- No relationship – prayer is invalid and futile
If you have no relationship with Father Yah you have NO RIGHT to pray to Him, let alone ask Him for anything.I see all sorts of statements by unbelievers that they are praying – their only relationship is with the Satanic and Demonic realm who may answer their prayers.Yah certainly will NOT.The same applies to nominal believers, those who at some time believed but who have continued living as though Father does not exist any prayers are futile.
- Pray Directional Prayers in Fathers Will
What WILL work are directional prayer that are in Fathers will – “Father I ask you tohelp me draw closer to you” and such like.Be wary here of going too far – “Father I ask you to lead me every second of every day in every possible way” is presumptuous and over the top – we are required to exercise our will and discretion so that prayer is not answered and IF you assume it is being answered can result in major errors.
- No Authority
Prayer in situations where you have no authority.You DO have authority for Parents, Children, Grand Children, Spouse, Siblings and to a lesser extent cousins.You also have authority if someone has explicitly asked you to pray for them or if they are feeding you spiritually by, for example providing you with teachings.At some level you can pray for your country and your government but there are limits on what will be effective.
- Prayers for and by Unbelievers
As a general principle, prayers for Unbelievers, are futile and frustrating to Father. Today the world is full of evidence that Father exists and with Television and the Internet nobody can claim that they do not have evidence that Father exists. Father is frustrated with prayers for Unbelievers, after all, they are all, by definition, Servants of Satan who are breaking the Great Commandment to “Love Yah the Eternally Self-Existing with ALL your heart, with all your mind and with all your spirit”. Father has NO interest in these people. If there is an unbeliever that you particularly care about, such as a sibling or child then YOU do something about it, it is NOT Father’s problem!
If you are an unbeliever then you have NO legal right to pray and EVERYTHING you pray is futile. So, if you are a Believing Unbeliever, in other words someone who believes the Bible at some level and worships Jesus but has NO material relationship with the Almighty Creator your prayers are just hot air and will NOT be accepted let alone acted on.
- Pointless Prayers
Prayers like somebody who has a regular job that is paying for food purchased from a Supermarket with a portion of their salary and thanking Father are pointless, frustrating to Yah and futile. Yah did NOT provide the food, you did. IF you are living in straightened circumstances without food and Yah miraculously provides THEN you have a basis to pray and give thanks.
Praying for the Unbelievers who provided the food is also futile.
Praying for an election outcome where there are others praying for the opposite outcome is pointless. So you pray for Political Party 1 while others are praying for Political Party 2 – totally futile. UNLESS you are in right standing, free of sin and in close relationship with Father in which case IF you pray His will in the situation He WILL listen to you. There are virtually NO people in this position.
- Prayers while you have unrepented sin
If you have unrepented sin in your life then you are a servant of Satan at some level and Father is under NO obligation to accept your prayers.Clean up your life and THEN He willhave some reason to listen to you.
- Prayers that exceed your Authority
Unless you are in close relationship with the Almighty you do NOT have authority to pray for major outcomes like the outcome of a Political Election, etc.Even then recognize that in most cases Father has to work through Human Beings so, UNLESS Fatherhas specifically communicated His WILL to you and instructed you what to pray your prayers are likely to be futile.
- Dictating to Father
Telling Father what to do as in “Father I ask you to speak to so and so because what they are doing is not right” is outside your authority although under certain circumstances where you ARE in Covenant and DO have some level of relationship He may reluctantly grant your prayer.Rather AVOID giving Father instruction.
- Rote repetition with NO Engagement
If you pray the same prayer day in and day out with no engagement and by rote then after a while Father will ignore you.So, praying “Our Father which art in Heaven …” when it has no meaning toyou and you are just parroting because you learned it at school is futile, it must MEAN something toyou and you must DESIRE that outcome.
Conclusion
There are the major categories of prayer that is futile, presumptuous and unlikely to be answered.As a general rule, you are better NOT to pray at all than to pray foolishly and presumptuously. Note also that where a person is in sin and serving Satan the Demonic and Satanic Realm have authority to answer the prayer as they see fit. I hope that this helps your prayer life.
