Is prayer a kind of “license to operate” that each human being issues to the divine realm?ClosedNicola asked 4 years ago • Prayer286 views0 answers0 votesIs the saying, “The squeaky wheel gets the grease,” an analogy that can be applied to prayer in any way?ClosedNicola asked 4 years ago • Prayer343 views0 answers0 votesThe same prayer, of course, can be said in any language. From this, it can be gleaned the power and purpose of prayers are not the words or semantics of the prayer, but rather as an aid, a tool, a means by which INTENT can be shaped in the mind of the person offering the prayer. As people differ in their attributes, outlooks, and sentiment, is “one prayer fits all” a far from optimal approach?ClosedNicola asked 4 years ago • Prayer283 views0 answers0 votesSome people are deeply moved by poetic prose, and others are deeply bored by it. Some are responsive to plain directives, and others put off by such blunt approaches. When it comes to shaping intent, is “to each his own” the most effective approach to prayer?ClosedNicola asked 4 years ago • Prayer304 views0 answers0 votesIs it true that “A poor prayer is better than no prayer,” assuming the prayer is intended to be sent to the divine realm, and mostly adheres to divine principles?ClosedNicola asked 4 years ago • Prayer284 views0 answers0 votesCan Creator share the importance of actually addressing a prayerful outreach to God/Creator and/or the divine realm, as opposed to the “Universe?” Would an analogy be making two copies of a letter of intent and desire for some benefit, sticking them in envelopes, and putting an actual address on one, and nothing on the other except perhaps “to whom it may concern?” In our physical world, one will get delivered, and the post office will have no idea what to do with the other one. Is this an apt analogy at all?ClosedNicola asked 4 years ago • Prayer299 views0 answers0 votesHumans have been unable to create permanent batteries, that will store forever. Stored energy always seems to find a way to drain or bleed off. In fact, because the nature of energy is flow or movement, is the whole notion of storing energy a kind of misnomer? How would one go about storing a river, or a waterfall for instance? Since the whole purpose of prayer is to shape intent, which is itself a kind of non-static, flowing construct, could this help to account why prayer does not store well, and why it needs to be continuously replenished?ClosedNicola asked 4 years ago • Prayer294 views0 answers0 votesCan Creator comment on the shelf life of a single prayer? Assume a prayer for personal protection was said on New Year’s Day, and not repeated again for an entire year. Does it have a kind of half-life like nuclear radiation does?ClosedNicola asked 4 years ago • Prayer315 views0 answers0 votesCan a protection prayer said by a deceased father for the protection of his son be answered decades later? Will the prayer power be degraded, but still sufficient to deliver the goods decades later, but maybe not centuries later when the son is reincarnated?ClosedNicola asked 4 years ago • Prayer306 views0 answers0 votesA fully charged battery will store longer than a drained battery. A trickle charger will keep it at full charge even when not in use. Is this perhaps the purpose of daily prayer for protection or other needs, to keep that protection energy available on an ongoing basis, and not lose potency over time?ClosedNicola asked 4 years ago • Prayer300 views0 answers0 votes
