[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I spent years praying, crying and pleading for God to answer a number of my prayers throughout the years, yet seldom were they ever answered. I became disappointed and even a bit bitter with God. On another note, I remember hearing a number of times that God liked to be praised and worshipped, and he responded to this which seemed a bit odd to me. Why would God be so vain? Why did he need us to worship him, as he already knew how powerful he was? This really puzzled me until one day I was given the answer.

The praise and worship weren't for God, this was for us. When we are praying while crying and pleading, we are evidencing little to no faith. [b]If we want a certain outcome we need to begin thanking and praising God for our desired outcome having been done.[/b] For instance, "Thank you God for blessing me now! Thank you God for my new blue, Chevy! Thank you God for healing Susan etc._ I would say these things continually throughout the day. Once I made this change my life totally changed! No I have not gotten everything, but I get a whole lot more now.  This applies to sickness, material things, praying for others, jobs etc. You can also add, "Thank you for this or something better!" to your request.[/quote]

This sounds like a dog training technique. [/quote]
