Praying: A Counterproductive Conversation with God

The provided text argues that incessant and relentless praying is counterproductive, suggesting that constant pleas overwhelm God and lead to unanswered prayers. The author posits that the proliferation of churches in poor areas correlates with increased poverty, as these religious institutions siphon money through tithes and other payments. The text also criticizes the emergence of "prayer warriors" and new denominations led by self-proclaimed prophets who often leverage their positions for personal wealth, leading to the performance of fake miracles and a focus on materialistic desires. Furthermore, the author questions the validity of "speaking in tongues" and the practice of praying solely for the faithfully departed, suggesting that a more measured and less demanding approach to prayer would be more effective.
