Does God have the patience to listen to prayers of folks who don't even speak English?

Answer 1

Absolutely not. God's prayer-line is much like your email inbox. He receives all prayers, but he kind of scans the subject line on the ones from Mexicans, Iraqis, and everybody in Africa and then drags them immediately to the delete pile. If you need proof of that, just look at what they're all going through.

Answer 2

God is real, and He loves you (even if you are the most naughty child in the world, or the most wicked adult). He knows all your weaknesses and struggles, and even if you go wrong (even in a big way) He still loves you. What He does not love is the wrong you have done – but He still loves you. He will never ‘turn His back’ on the person who is sorry and asks for help to be put right again – never! Even if everyone else does, and nobody else understands, He does, and He will never leave you even if you leave Him from time to time.

Since God has created us, he knows our needs and without us asking Him, He grants us. For example, when we were born, did we know the importance of all parts of the body? Did we know that, how important it is to have a healty life with all the parts functioning well???????

But, despite us asking Him, he granted us, so why can't He answer those prayers which we ask Him in any language???

In His Glorious Book, God says:

23. Say: "It is He Who has created you (and made you grow), and made for you the faclities of hearing, seeing, feeling and understanding: very few among you are thankful

24. Say: "It is He Who has multiplied you through the earth, and to Him shall ye be gathered together. (Chapter 67)

On another place, God has said,

16. It was We Who created man, and We know what dark suggestions his soul makes to him: for We are nearer to him than (his) jugular vein. (Chapter 50)

When He doesn't answer somce of our prayers, it doesn't mean that He doesn't understand, but since He created us, He knows what is better for us. And by testing our patience, He has kept a great reward for us.

Answer 3

One of His divine qualities is omniscience... being all-knowing... He knows all languages. Whether it's in English, Spanish, French, Swahili, Pig Latin... whatever- He understands it, and if said with faith that He exists, that He wants to help His children, He will hear and answer.

Note- Not all prayers are answered as we'd like them. God does know what's best for us, and just like most parents, when their kid asks for something that is bad for them, He may not give it to us.... "Some of God's greatest gifts are unanswered prayers."

Answer 4

I think since God is God He has plenty of patience. I also figure since He created all the languages He understands them all.

Answer 5

It's up to people to learn to speak other languages if they want to communicate.
People are often impatient, prayers are a state of mind in any language.

Answer 6

God knows all languages, even the unspoken ones. You do realize that the Bible wasn't written in English, don't you? You also realize that Jesus more than likely spoke Hebrew or Aramaic?


I do hope you are kidding.

Answer 7

God created all languages, so don't you think He understands them all??? Since He made them, He would have to know all of them. Who's to say that God's main language is english anyway?

Answer 8

God listens to all languages. God did not go to Oxford.

Answer 9

well since God's mother tongue isnt english...i'd say he has the patience to listen to those who DO speak english as well!!

Answer 10

God is the creator of all people and therefore all languages, it would only make sense if you believe this that he understood what he created.
