Do you believe that satan can read our minds? I was told he couldn't,so I now pray to God silently so as not to tip him off to what I'm saying.Satan intrudes enough in our lives.I like to think that he can't hear what's being said during my prayers,because that's my special time with God,and satan has no place in that conversation.

You know that is funny that you say this, because I have just come to this realization this week i have found all this to be true at least for me,so.....if it is very important kingdom work that I am praying for i do not voice it,......if it is simple gratitude prayer or a blessing then I will be glad to voice it. I also worship aloud and quietly satan has no power over a person in the middle of worship, he flees because of the bright light that is shines while courting our King. I believe that the Holy Spirit protects us if we invite him in all of our Kingdom endeavors, but it is definitely not wise to share the secret plans of the Kingdom with the enemy by blasting it aloud.

If you want to know what Satan is capable of, buy Father Malachi Martin's book Hostage To the Devil. Father Martin was a Catholic priest and and exorcist. He was a guest on Art Bell's radio program Coast To Coast before Father Martin died. The book is about 10 exorcisms he either participated in or was told about by other priests. Fair warning though - it'll scare the c*^**p out of you so don't read it when you're alone. It will definitely open your eyes, and don't believe for a second that Satan can't read your mind.

I don't think Satan can read our minds. But why pray silently. We pray out loud in church every Sunday. Can he hear us probably. But if you have enough faith, and are a true christian, then it doesn't matter if he hears or not. Because you are the only one who is responsible for your actions. You know when Satan is testing you. And you know what you need to do to keep away from temptation.

I believe satan can read our minds, frankly. I think he exerts influence over our thoughts on a regular basis. Why else would we need to repel evil inclinations. If you pray Jesus' name satan may hear, but he won't like it, and that is just too bad - 1 John 4:4 - 4 You are from God, little children, and have overcome them; because greater is He who is in you than he who is in the world.
Let him hear if he wants. He can try to make something of it with your Savior.

God is Omniscient, meaning all knowing. He is Omnipresent, meaning He is everywhere at the same time. And He's Omnipotent, meaning He's all powerful. Satan, being a created being, although he is very powerful, has none of those attributes of God. No, Satan can't read minds.

Satan can only observe your body language. He's been doing it since the beginning of time so he can probably tell what your thinking by what your doing. In prayer he doesnt know what you're saying and that scares him

I mean only to encourage you. The oposite of faith is fear. Do not fear what the devil will do with your prayers, and remember that he has no power over you. Just stay in the word and put on your spiritual armor
Breastplate of righteousness
Belt of Truth
Shoes of Peace
Shield of Faith
Helmet of Salvation
Sword of the Spirit which is the word of God
When you look at this there is only one weapon The word of God.

satan cannot read your mind but u are supposed to pray out loud so that satan will get away from u, because he is scared of Jesus so always say Jesus' name and he will flee
