A:Christians believe that God will answer their prayers as an acknowledgement of the faith of those who submit their prayers to him. If he does not answer a prayer, it is assumed not to have been worthy or not part of God's plan.

You can be certain that if enough people pray for the things they want or need, some of them will have their wishes fulfilled, while others will not. Whether that outcome is because of God's unknowable plan or simply blind chance is something each person can decide. This means that if you pray often enough, at least some of your prayers will be answered, if only by chance. . You will probably remember these answers to your prayers, but soon forget the many prayers that seemingly were not answered.

What would you do if someone you known Committed Suicide?

. We cannot know the final disposition for anyone's soul before God. All we can do is trust in the mercy of God and pray for that person. There have been a few revelations to people of persons who committed suicide, in the two that I can think of, one was a young girl who appeared to her friend who had been praying for her, she told her to not pray for her as she was in hell. The other was Our Blessed Lady revealing to a mother that her son had repented with his dying breath and would be in purgatory for the rest of the time so he was in desperate need of prayers. We should commend these souls to God and pray for their release from purgatory. All prayers offered for the dead are used by God. If the person has no need of our prayers, then God uses them for someone who does need our prayers. Prayers for the dead are never "wasted."

What is lacking in our prayers and why do prayers not stop us from sins?

A:A sincere believer will say that what is often lacking in prayers is faith. Without faith the Holy Spirit can not guide us away from sin.A non-believer will say that prayers do not stop us from sins because the Holy Spirit does not exist - he is imaginary. With no God and no Holy Spirit, it is our own responsibility, guided not by the Holy Spirit but by our consciences, to do good to others.Each person must choose whether to believe that God does not help those with not enough faith, even just to help them avoid sin, or whether to believe that prayer is just talking into an empty void.

Does God hear sinners prayers?

The fact that we have all lost our perfection, due to what the first couple, Adam and Eve have left us as an heritage, we are all sinners by definition. The meaning of the word "SIN " is the missing of the mark or goal. The mark or goal that God had for the human kind in the first place, was everlasting life on earth. Read Genesis 2: 15-17. That purpose was postponed for the moment, which is why God sent His beloved Son on earth 2'000 years ago, to redeem the human race from the curse of sin and death and to undo all the damage done by Satan. Read John 3: 16; 1 John 3: 8. Psalm 145: 18,19 explains that " Jehovah God is near to all those calling on him, To all who call on him in truth. ( or in sincerity ) God wants us to pray to him. Prayer is an aspect of worship that shows our deep respect for God. It is His arrangement that was put in place for us to communicate with Him. According to Philippians 4: 6, which reads. " Do not be anxious over anything, but in everything by prayer and supplication along with thanksgiving, let your petitions be made known to God; and the peace of God that surpasses all understanding will guard your hearts and your mental powers by means of Christ Jesus. So to answer your question, which is: Does God hear sinners prayers? The answer is: God listens to the prayers of sincere and truthful people, who have deep respect for Him. Romans 5: 12 reminds us that we have inherited our imperfection from one man, which is the spread of sin on mankind like a disease. So it is not our fault why we have lost our perfection. But it does not excuse our bad choices . Anything that affects a worshipper's relationship with God or life as one of God's servants can be a proper subject of prayer. As long as our prayers are in harmony with God's will, that may embrace virtually every facet of life. A worshipper of God may feel free to talk to Jehovah God about his inmost feelings, needs, fears, and anxieties. Read Matthew 6: 9-13; John 14: 13; 1 Peter 5: 7; John 16: 23,24. Psalm 37: 29 shows what our future holds, in these words. "The righteous will possess the earth, And they will live forever on it."
