Do Prayers Change, Heal Or Build A Nation? by EmekaStanley: 4:00pm On Nov 21, 2021
It's a Sunday.

And on a day like this, a lot of people go to their places of worship. It's a good thing to be in such a gathering periodically but then how has going to your places of worship impacted to nation building?

Someone can be religious yet anti-nation. What this means is that you can be going to places of worship always yet you do not do things that build a nation or rather you do things that are directly against the principles of nationhood, either deliberately or ignorantly.

Just going to places of worship to pray doesn't change, heal or build a nation.

Building a nation requires conscious effort.

Building a nation requires applying the right principles being taught in every area of life.

I will discuss on the Principles of building a nation with diverse people at a later date. Please stay with me.

Prayers alone without putting in the right amount of work is an absolute waste of time.

Absolutely. Believing is not complete without faith, and faith requires that you act out what you believe.

Pound for pound yes ..

More people die from violence, sickness and poverty in Nigeria than both nations combined

We have more poor people than the combined population of both countries

In the last 24 months our currency has performed worse than both countries

Haiti currency is 300 percent stronger than the Naira while Somalia currency is at par with Naira and both are the worst currencies in Africa today.

We have more childer out of school than both countries combined

There is more insecurity in Nigeria than Somalia

Man I could go on and on

Nigeria would have been the best country on earth if prayer could change or make a country good.

Ofcourse prayer do change and heal not only a nation but even ones destiny!
When prayer fulfils its conditions for efficacy such as avoiding consumption of unlawful things, having Certainty that God is above what you asked Him and He's capable of doing it, not being in haste for results, avoid praying for evil against others and yourself etc. Sharp sharp it can do a lot of wonders in your life!
Stop consuming ill-gotten wealth most importantly, and your prayers will be accepted
