If Prayer worked then all odds and percentages would be off, If some one goes to the doctor and they have a 50/50 chance of making it out ok from an operation, if they prayed the odds dont change in their favor.

Prayer does not work because either A) God does not exist
or B) God does not answer prayers.

Prayer does work! He who scoffs at the prayer does not! Explain how my 4 year old daughter needed surgery badly on her hip until she prayed that God would fix it so she didn't need the surgery anymore. The next xray showed a complete healing of her hip as if there never was a problem of any kind before. That happened 11 years ago and the surgery still is not necessary. She experienced a total and complete healing. Who dunnit? God did, of course! LOL

Oh yes it does work. There have been so many cases where people were put in life-threatening situations and other people prayed and those people survived. I firmly believe in the power of prayer. It has been proved to me in many situations.
One must have the faith (the grain of a mustard seed) that it will work and it will.

Prayer is for thanking God for all the blessings he has given us, not to ask for miracles! Besides, it doesn't matter if you come out of the operation okay....it's what happens when you die that is important.
Even if prayer does not work, why work so hard to discourage people from doing it? The devil is hard at work if you ask me.

costly Overcast, stable night! on the top you're saying you opt for for help, so i will try. Somethings to be understood might desire to be lived, experienced. Praying to God is taken under consideration one of them. So, pray to Him! Ask Him approximately your doubts, your needs, your questioning bearing directly to the Lord! basically as an test - do no longer have confidence Him, do no longer think of he will answer you, do basically it. Overcast, the respond will come to you. I felt basically such as you, some years in the past. And somebody helped me to choose - and He spoke back me. You ask for a source: there is not any "source" on earth - the source is God Himself. playstation : your very own father might supply you "unfastened will" - yet once you ask for help, he supplies it to you. PS2: toddlers understand God and prayer extra desirable than adults do. like to you, each and every of how from Brazil!

Prayer works as a belief in oneself.

Prayer does work. God just answers them however he wishes and when he answers them the opposite way of what people want they think their prayers weren't answered.

I don't really believe in the power of prayer. What ever happens, will happen and it was meant to be, regardless of prayers.

God doesn't always answer prayer with the answer that you would like him to answer with.
