When you pray to god to give you courage or strenght, its not him that does it. You give that to yourself. When you think "i prayed for a good day today, so it must be true", you really do have a good day, but god didn't give it to you. Your mind is focused on positive things because you believe your day is going to be great. If you believe you're happy, it is true.Praying for other people certainly does not work at all. They will do what they please wether you pray or not. And if it just so happens that it does work, its either a coincidence or because you talked them into whatever you thought is right (which is so typical of christians). If you pray to god that you can survive after an accident, and you do, it isnt because you prayed, it is because you believed you will survive. Its not god's power that helps you, its the power of your mind. Praying will not get you anywhere. Weak minded people need to pray because otherwise, they don't believe in themselves. But what about the rest?
