People who see a demon being exorcised in the name of Jesus, believe firmly in their faith.
There are at least many cases like these, when people have overcome strange phenomenon based on their prayers or some other kind of spiritual oath.
Whats going on? How come God accepts their prayers if theyre all belonging to different faiths?

God doesn't belong to a religion. He loves everyone equally and accepts their love no matter how or where they pray.

If you look at the evidence provided by prayer you find out that it is meaningless. Consider:
1. Good and bad things happen to good and bad people whether or not they pray.
2. The effects of prayer (hits and misses) are the same no matter what your religion.
3. If a prayer is "answered" then the person says "see god did it".
4. If a prayer is "not answered" then the person says "god heard my prayer but wants me to wait".
5. If a prayer is "answered a long time after the prayer is made" then the person again says that god did it.
6. if a completely different answer occurs at anytime after a prayer then the person still says that god did it but he must have known better.
Bottom line - people interpret prayers as being successful no matter what the outcome. It's like playing roulette in Vegas and pretending that you win every single time.

God is no respecter of persons. god answers all prayers. HOWEVER, you do not always get what you pray for. God knows what is best for you. Not all prayers are answered in a positive manner. Some, perhaps a lot, are answered in what we believe to be negative; however, God never does anything that is negative. Judging something that is negative is a human trait, not an aspect of God. what we intend for evil, god intends for the good. God's objective is to give us the greatest amount of good so that he can receive the greatest amount of glory. This good that he sends us takes time and comes by various routes. My ordination as a pastor was not handed me on a silver platter---I had to work and suffer to get where I am. I always new, since by early twenties, that it would come, but it was not until I was 55 years old that God saw fit to ordain me. We must always be patient in our prayers and we must always wait on God's timing. If we expect God to jump every time we snap our fingers, then we shall be sorely disappointed. This is why most marriages fail---people rush into relationships that are ungodly. I am not married, never have been, but i hope to be within two years. I have patiently waited on God all my life and I believe that he will finally answer my prayers soon. Patience has its rewards.

God is a Prayer answering God. The Bible says to pray in the name of Jesus only. The Bible also says that Satan will be able to perform signs and wonders and that some of the very elect will fall away from their faith. Get born again St. John 3:5 & Acts 2:38. When you have His Spirit with the evidence of speaking in an unknown language You will be Led in All Truth!!

Demons are supernatural beings that can do supernatural things, and God has allowed them to. Our job is to discern which things are from God and which are from demons. God has promised to fix things in HIS TIME TABLE! Anything beyond that should come into question. If you think about it, what better way for Satan to mislead people than by making them believe God answered their prayer(s) even though they're unknowingly practicing false worship not based on bible truth!?

Well, some people believe anyone of another faith is worshipping a false god and is wasting their time and will go to hell. But a lot of people believe that it's all worshipping the same god, only in different ways. I always say that you shouldn't worry too much about how other people worship their god. Find what you like and worry about your own faith.

Hun you are tryint to be so objective about Jesus! lol if you knew anything about Jesus, then you would know why he came to defeat the enemy, and how the human mind is so easily bendable because it believes what it sees and mostly we are as lost sheep, always looking for guidance. Even those who consider themselves outkast fall into the outcast group. You have the God of this world, who longed to be as the God if heaven, and to be worshipped he uses the human mind and leads the doubtful and confused to death. Get to know Jesus and stop with these questions, I am assuming that by now you have heard of him, the DEVIL?
