We Pray Too Much In Nigeria It's Time To Embrace Science And Tech - Kukah
After independence, in order to build a great nation, each country went to work. But in Nigeria, after independence, our people went to pray and fast.
So, while we were praying, Malaysia came here and took our palm seedlings and build a great factory of it.
While we were praying, Singapore went into investment in technology.
While we were praying, India went into ICT.
While we were praying, China went to massive industrialization.
While we were shouting Allah Alakuba! UAE went into massive infrastructural development.
While we were binding and casting Lucifer, Japan went into technological development.
While we were speaking in tongues, Denmark went into education of her citizens.
While we were mounting big speakers in our places of worship, USA was mounting man on the moon.
After our prayers, God, being a wise God decided to reward us according to our labour.
Since those that went into industrialization, technology, infrastructural development, ICT, education etc had been rewarded accordingly. It’s only wise God rewards us with our efforts in prayers.
That’s why today, Nigerian pastors are competing in building the biggest churches. That’s why there are more prayer houses and worship places than hospitals and schools. That’s why people rush to prayer houses for medical and business solutions instead of hospitals.
That’s why we don’t do business proposals before jumping into business since we are going to back it up with prayers. And when such collapse, we blame devil.
That’s why it’s a sin to say anything negative about pastors and imams.
That’s why our pastors don’t consider the opinion of engineers while building and blame devil when the building collapsed.
That’s why faith in God replaces building pillars and when it collapsed we blame it on Lucifer.
That’s why our pastors are making sure they plant church branches instead of schoolsonn every street in Nigeria

The worst part is that, we dont pray to same God the white man prays too!

I have studied both God`s and its different.

In as much as majority believe Christianity and Islam is universal, the target God is different.

THE PRAYER OF THE LAZY NEVER WORKS

Only a SMART WORKING MAN gets an AMEN to most of his prayers.

KNOW THIS AND KNOW PEACE.

Thanks, @Ikorodureporta

Maybe there could be some misunderstanding about "prayer"

Because there is a HUGE difference between the type of prayers recorded in the Bible and what commonly masquerades as "prayer" today

Good this is coming from a Rev. Would have appreciated this a lot more if it came from their god, Adebayo.

Gullible Nigerians.

If China, Taiwan , Japan and others have been busy praying like we do in Nigeria, don't know the kind of paradise they would have turned their countries into.
We expect miracles to perform technological advancement for us.
Too bad
We really need to change our mentality.
Faith without works is nothing

United States Of America (the number 1 nation of the world and leading world power) and Britain (one of the world powers) were preaching and "praying too much" at the time of their greatest accomplishments and scientific developments.

It's not by coincidence that Isaac Newton, the greatest scientist generally said to have ever lived, was a devote Christian (prayer warrior and preacher).

The difference with Nigeria is that their prayers and fastings were hardly backed by a pure or obedient heart, but mostly wickedness.

That's why they're where they are because prayer alone is not enough.

It is righteousness that exalts a nation not prayer or fasting. Proverbs 14:34

God bless.

My people are great but most of them have been brainwashed by disguised atheists who are claiming PASTORS in our society, these are the ones blurring their senses into gathering all their resources and turning it into money just to pay these PASTORS for no reasonable service to the society.
So instead of our youths to make use of their brains to invent in Nigeria these so called "men of God" have sown greed, selfishness and showy display of material possessions in the hearts of our youths hence most of our youths are using their brains for fraudulent activities while others are into prostitution! undecided

The God you lot pretend to pray to instead says He absolutely does not answer the prayers of the unrighteous -- their prayers are tainted by their many sins and are hence an abomination to Him. Name one righteous man you know of or have ever met in all of your life. undecided

The rule given by the God of Scripture concerning prayer is simple, only you lot enjoy convolution His ideas in order to keep yourselves relevant to your audience. The God of Scripture absolutely does not answer the prayers of the unrighteous---- their prayers, praises, offerings, "seeds", petitions, works,etc., are tainted by their many sins and are hence an abomination to Him. So, this isn't about what you say is "type: of prayer but rather the status of the individual as far as God's standard of righteousness. undecided

I hope you don't somehow take this as some sort of sign that this Rev has turned a new leaf. Every so often it is part of their scam to give their gullible audience a dose of reality in order ti keep them hooked. Come next Sunday you will likely find the same man pumping the same old religious lies he makes his living off of from the pulpits. These men are all conmen even when they pretend not to be. undecided

Kai! Religion don blaskata una brain finish with this nonsense. undecided

Jesus Christ is instead recorded to have urged His followers to seek first the Kingdom of God(Holiness) and then God's Righteousness in order that all these things ---- the blessings and rewards of the Kingdom of God --- shall be added onto each. if indeed Jesus Christ has already granted you Holiness And Righteousness ----- you cannot be granted the latter without the former ---- under the Gospel Law and Covenant of God in the Kingdom of God , why then would He have given you such a command in the first place? Wouldn't your claim have simply rendered the obedience of the commandment and teachings of the Gospel Law---something Jesus Christ also said those who love Him would do -‐- of no real value to anyone? undecided

What even annoys me the most is that most of those church workers are struggling daily, and their lives haven't changed for years...and the church does not care about them ...including the catholic system...
