A great deal has been written by the worldly concerning their “prayers to God” or “their prayers.”
Many worldly pieces which claim to be about prayers to the Almighty are REALLY attacks on such prayer and those who do it.
Some world pieces on prayer claim to be “how-to” guides by the worldly.
Still other worldly pieces use prayer–a holy communication between God and those who love and fear Him–as a way to promote some action or event of the world.
BUT, does it even do any good for those who stand apart from God’s grace and mercy to pray to Him–particularly when such men get scared or anxious?
The answer is found in God’s Word and the answer is VERY clear: NO.
NO, God does not even HEAR the prayer of the wicked.
NO, God does not even enjoy the prayers of the wicked.
NO, God considers such attempts to contact Him as ABOMINATIONS.
“He that turneth away his ear from hearing the law, even his prayer shall be abomination.”
–Proverbs 28:9
“If I regard iniquity in my heart, the Lord will not hear me”
–Psalm 66:18
“Now we know that God heareth not sinners: but if any man be a worshipper of God, and doeth his will, him he heareth.”
–John 9:31
“For what is the hope of the hypocrite, though he hath gained, when God taketh away his soul? Will God hear his cry when trouble cometh upon him?”
–Job 27:8-9
IN FACT, God’s Word is VERY CLEAR that there is a HUGE gulf between the prayers of the wicked and the prayers of those who fear the LORD.
“The sacrifice of the wicked is an abomination to the LORD: but the prayer of the upright is his delight.”
–Proverbs 15:8
IN FACT, God will NOT even acknowledge those public displays if they are done by a non-believer.
“When they fast, I will not hear their cry; and when they offer burnt offering and an oblation, I will not accept them: but I will consume them by the sword, and by the famine, and by the pestilence.”
–Jeremiah 14:12
One tip-off that the prayers offered to God are falling upon deaf ears is when the one doing the praying is asking for some WORLDLY blessing. This happens a LOT at political events where those present are looking for worldly power to solve their problems–but just to be on the safe side (or for the sake of appearances)–they offer up prayers for their cause.
To all those readers who are saying to themselves “I’m not wicked! I try to do good all of the time!”
God’s Word ALSO repeatedly refers to the wicked as “foolish.”
So basically: IF one is not really interested in following God’s commandments, God is not really interested in hearing your prayers.
DOES the reader ever wonder why his prayers to God go unanswered?
It is not YET too late: there is still time to change direction (repent), place your faith (hope) for the future entirely on Jesus Christ and enter the kingdom of heaven.
“Moreover, brethren, I declare unto you the gospel which I preached unto you, which also ye have received, and wherein ye stand; By which also ye are saved, if ye keep in memory what I preached unto you, unless ye have believed in vain. For I delivered unto you first of all that which I also received, how that Christ died for our sins according to the scriptures; And that he was buried, and that he rose again the third day according to the scriptures:
And that he was seen of Cephas, then of the twelve: After that, he was seen of above five hundred brethren at once; of whom the greater part remain unto this present, but some are fallen asleep. After that, he was seen of James; then of all the apostles. And last of all he was seen of me also, as of one born out of due time. ”
–1 Corinthians 15:1-8
“For I am not ashamed of the gospel of Christ: for it is the power of God unto salvation to every one that believeth; to the Jew first, and also to the Greek.”
-–Romans 1:16

“The president is overcompensating a bit because he had a rough day yesterday. A candidate he worked very hard to endorse in Alabama lost his election. Senator Luther Strange lost his Republican primary runoff to Roy Moore by 10 points, which was very disappointing to the president. Usually when Trump goes all-in on a loser it’s a casino with his name on it.”

“A new survey shows how much time we waste every day. For example, we waste seven minutes in line waiting for coffee, 28 minutes getting through airport security, and four years waiting for President Obama to do something about the economy.”
–-Jay Leno (2012)
“In a direct response to Trump’s comments, over 200 NFL players protested during the national anthem. Some stayed in their locker room while others got down on one knee. Even the singer of the national anthem for the Detroit Lions ended his performance by kneeling down and raising a fist. Now I don’t want to say that Trump is making things worse for his cause, but at this point the guy singing the national anthem is protesting the national anthem.”
–-James Corden (2016)
“But actually, he thought as he readjusted the Ministry of Plenty’s figures, it was not even forgery. It was merely the substitution of one piece of nonsense for another. Most of the material that you were dealing with had no connection with anything in the real world, not even the kind of connection that is contained in a direct lie. Statistics were just as much a fantasy in their original version as in their rectified version. A great deal of time you were expected to make them up out of your head.”
–On changing government statistics – George Orwell, Nineteen Eighty-Four
Do you believe the media? Then why do you believe their lying polls?
“Political campaigns today are all side shows, all honors, all bombast, glitter, and speeches. These are for the most part unrelated to the main business of studying the party scientifically, of supplying the public with party, candidate, platform, and performance, and selling the public these ideas and products.”
—Edward Bernays, Propaganda (1928)
“But these are written, that ye might believe that Jesus is the Christ, the Son of God; and that believing ye might have life through his name.”

THE GOSPEL OF JESUS CHRIST
“Moreover, brethren, I declare unto you the gospel which I preached unto you, which also ye have received, and wherein ye stand; By which also ye are saved, if ye keep in memory what I preached unto you, unless ye have believed in vain. For I delivered unto you first of all that which I also received, how that Christ died for our sins according to the scriptures; And that he was buried, and that he rose again the third day according to the scriptures:

–1 Corinthians 15:1-8
“For the preaching of the cross is to them that perish foolishness; but unto us which are saved it is the power of God. For it is written, I will destroy the wisdom of the wise, and will bring to nothing the understanding of the prudent.”

BUT, if past performance is any indication, 2020 will be relatively quiet and an election in the near future will be the one which fulfills all of the media’s dire warnings and doom-and-gloom scenarios.

One of the ways to tell counterfeits and tares is simple observation.
Do they exhibit the fruit of the Spirit?
What is the fruit of the Spirit?
“But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, longsuffering, gentleness, goodness, faith, Meekness, temperance: against such there is no law.”
–Galatians 5:22-23
Particularly in the times in which we live, a person exhibiting the fruit of the Spirit is extremely rare.
Though there are no end to the number of pretenders.

And what is more dramatic than an apparent feud among the beautiful people, right?
Particularly if the “feud” is between celebrities, politicos or royal nabobs?
IN FACT, the rich and celebrated almost never disagree: they engage in feuds–sometimes for decades after they have ceased being celebrated for anything else.
What would the beautiful people do with themselves if not for their never-ending feuds?
Satan’s Mouthpiece (the Corporate Media) has always had a problem: what to do when too many of the rich and celebrated have NOTHING “newsworthy” to do. When the media gets tired of reporting what the rich and celebrated are wearing, they turn to the tried-and-true method of of fake “feuds” to generate cheap, plastic “news.”
One popular singer’s entire marketing campaign over the years seems to have been based on engaging in one “feud” after another. But, as the “victims” appear to be primarily the singer’s “fans,” it’s hard to get too worked up over the ruse.
Sports, politics and celebrity culture, European royalty–wherever the rich and celebrated congregate: these are the arenas where readers can most often find stories of “feuds.”
Oh–and pro wrestling…
One can depend on those who labor for the mystery of iniquity to act, in not only an EVIL manner, but also in a very repetitive one as well.
Case in point: when two followers of Satan are working together, one of the first things they do is establish that they 1-do not like each other; 2- they hate each other; or, 3- are fighting against one another.
Democrats and Republicans, Russia and the USA, members of the same family who toil together for evil ends, famous celebrities who are “feuding” with each other: it happens so often, one occasionally has to wonder, “Does Satan have a university or school where he teaches his followers these tricks?”
—-University of Satan
Just the same old lies told in a different manner.
Here’s something for the reader to think on: there are all types of artifacts, cities, mechanisms, giant statues, roads, castles, buildings and other remnants from a previous time which have been found UNDER WATER OFF THE COASTS of EVERY SINGLE CONTINENT.
If presented in a rational manner, these finds might suggest that some watery cataclysm at one time swept over the earth and left these once-important symbols of civilization submerged. This forest, while not something usually thought of as “man made,” joins these dozens of other finds.
BUT THEN, the Corporate Media, science and other members of the mystery of iniquity rush in and loudly proclaim that these finds are “tens of thousands of years old” and unrelated to any other finds elsewhere in the world.
At no time do the world’s “experts” EVER ask the obvious question: “Gee, are any of these finds connected in any way?”
Meanwhile, deceived and deluded modern man takes what these professional liars have to say as strictly the truth.
Everyone then promptly shrugs their shoulders, forgets the finds, all the while the professionals mock the Word of God while spinning their latest fables and using the word “mystery” to explain away these many still-submerged sites.
“The police department in Lawrence, Kansas, tweeted this yesterday from their official account. They tweeted, “Reminder: We realize politics can make emotions run high, but being mad at a presidential candidate in a debate is not a reason to call 911.”
-–Jimmy Kimmel (2016)
“The whole aim of practical politics is to keep the populace alarmed (and hence clamorous to be led to safety) by menacing it with an endless series of hobgoblins, all of them imaginary.”
–H.L. Mencken
“How can the reader know when the Corporate Media is lying to him (never mind the fact that the media is Satan’s Mouthpiece and Satan is the father of lies)? One easy way to tell is the use of “Why” and “How” in the headlines of an article. When the reader sees “Why?” or “How?” in the headline–occasionally “What” is used–that which follows will be a fairy tale, a narrative, a bedtime story spun by the media for the benefit of the media’s master. “Why” usually denotes an on-going narrative; “How” signifies a story line which explains past events. Not all narratives begin with “How” or “Why.” However, the most in-your-face, over-the-top ones usually do. ALL political “news” is narrative.
“American journalism (like the journalism of any other country) is predominantly paltry and worthless. Its pretensions are enormous, but its achievements are insignificant.”
― H.L. Mencken
“Things are never quite what they seem. Events are seldom close to how the media and history portray them.”
“It is a free press…There are laws to protect the freedom of the press’s speech, but none that are worth anything to protect the people from the press.”
–Mark Twain, speech: License of the Press
“If you repeat a lie often enough, people will believe it, and you will even come to believe it.”
—Joseph Goebbels, Nazi Minister of Propaganda
“Journalists” are story-tellers. Nothing more, nothing less. Sometimes, there is an element of truth in their stories, but truth is not a requirement of what they do.
FEW: CHRISTIANS ARE NOT, NOR EVER HAVE BEEN, A MAJORITY
“Enter ye in at the strait [narrow] gate: for wide is the gate, and broad is the way, that leadeth to destruction, and many there be which go in thereat: Because strait is the gate, and narrow is the way, which leadeth unto life, and few there be that find it.”
–Matthew 7:13-14
Regardless of what the world and the pagan churches would have one believe, Christians have NEVER been a majority.
They have ALWAYS been FEW.
HOWEVER, pretenders, impostors, seducers, evil men, miLAST WEEKnisters of Satan, wolves in sheep’s clothing, false apostles, workers of iniquity, false teachers, counterfeits and tares have ALWAYS been many–so the world falsely believes that Christians abound.
MIDDLE EAST: U.S. Pulling Some Missile-Defense Systems Out of Mideast – Why does the reader suppose the USA is pulling missile defense systems out of the Middle East at the same time it is “ramping up its rhetoric against Iran“?
This question is perhaps more interesting today than it was one year ago.
THE GOSPEL OF JESUS CHRIST & THE WORKERS OF INIQUITY
“…As I live, saith the Lord GOD, I have no pleasure in the death of the wicked; but that the wicked turn from his way and live: turn ye, turn ye from your evil ways; for why will ye die, O house of Israel?”
–Ezekiel 33:11
God Almighty takes no pleasure in the death of the wicked.
“The soul that sinneth, it shall die. The son shall not bear the iniquity of the father, neither shall the father bear the iniquity of the son: the righteousness of the righteous shall be upon him, and the wickedness of the wicked shall be upon him. But if the wicked will turn from all his sins that he hath committed, and keep all my statutes, and do that which is lawful and right, he shall surely live, he shall not die. All his transgressions that he hath committed, they shall not be mentioned unto him: in his righteousness that he hath done he shall live. Have I any pleasure at all that the wicked should die? saith the Lord GOD: and not that he should return from his ways, and live?”
–Ezekiel 18:20-23
BUT the wicked–whom God’s Word also calls “foolish“–want no part of eternal salvation, preferring the things of this world to the things which last; choosing to remain deceived until the bitter end.
“For I have no pleasure in the death of him that dieth, saith the Lord GOD: wherefore turn yourselves, and live ye.”
–Ezekiel 18:32
Tragic.
The workers of iniquity need the gospel of Jesus Christ as much as anyone who lives in this fallen world. There is much rejoicing in heaven over the salvation of just one wicked.
“I say unto you, that likewise joy shall be in heaven over one sinner that repenteth, more than over ninety and nine just persons, which need no repentance.”
–Luke 15:7
For I delivered unto you first of all that which I also received, how that Christ died for our sins according to the scriptures; And that he was buried, and that he rose again the third day according to the scriptures:
And that he was seen of Cephas, then of the twelve: After that, he was seen of above five hundred brethren at once; of whom the greater part remain unto this present, but some are fallen asleep. After that, he was seen of James; then of all the apostles. And last of all he was seen of me also, as of one born out of due time. ”
–1 Corinthians 15:3-8
“Ye shall utterly destroy all the places, wherein the nations which ye shall possess served their gods, upon the high mountains, and upon the hills, and under every green tree:”
—Deuteronomy 12:2
“Green,” “eco-friendly” and “trees” are very important to end times leaders.
These words–and the concepts behind them–are so important, these terms and their critical importance to mankind has been beat into the heads of humanity by any and all means.
Pagans are obviously committed to multiplying groves by any and all means.
Even if it means using dead bodies to fertilize the trees.
“…a tree is planted on top of it. The tree is chosen when the person is alive, relatives and friends look after it when death occurs. A cemetery will no longer be full of tombstones and will become a sacred forest”.
“A sacred forest” is also known as a “grove.”
Groves were primarily where apostate Israelites worshiped their idols.
“And Asa did that which was good and right in the eyes of the LORD his God: For he took away the altars of the strange gods, and the high places, and brake down the images, and cut down the groves”
–2Chronicles 14:3
HINT: It has to do with the whole end times deception thing that Jesus warned us about.
The Greatest Director In Sci-Fi Goes To Mars – When the mystery of iniquity really wants the teeming masses to pick up on an idea (Mars!), it uses Big Government, Big Media, Big Education, Big Comedy and Big Entertainment to push it.
MORE: UFOs, Aliens and ET in the End Times – Going to have to update this to include all of the Corporate Media myths and legends being spun about “space travel and Mars colonies.”
The Mars hoopla hasn’t slacked up a bit. All the reader has to do is put “Mars” into a search engine for news and take a look at the number of results.
In Google alone, it’s almost 35 million results.
[UPDATE: Google now shows over 1 billion results for “Mars.”]
Again, the “Mars” campaign is part of the overwhelming deception of the end times.
BUT, the repetitious deception DOES prove there is life on earth.
“But evil men and seducers shall wax worse and worse, deceiving, and being deceived.”
–2Timothy 3:3
The average person–if such a person exists–seems continually surprised by the depths of public depravity and perverseness which greets each passing day.
Those who are truly surprised by such a turn of events are those who do not believe (or know) the Bible.
Many others appear surprised: whether they are or not, no human can know.
The prevailing attitude among the heathenized populations is:
“I want to do what I want to do–and what I want to do is sin.
BUT I only want MY SIN to be allowed.
Other sins which I do not like (or in which I do not participate), I want to be kept under control. Murder, theft of my stuff, public drunkenness: these behaviors have to be kept on a tight leash because they make me uncomfortable.
ONLY my sin is allowed.”
But sin doesn’t work like that. It’s growth is explosive and it doesn’t confine itself to ONLY the sin that one finds agreeable (say sexual excess).
“A little leaven [sin] leaveneth the whole lump.”
–Galatians 5:9
Public perversity will continue and grow worse.
Actually, it will continue and grow worse and worse.
“This know also, that in the last days perilous times shall come.”
–2Timothy 3:1
