Sometimes we interpret what we see in films in terms of what we already believe rather than what was meant. A lot of people these days have faith in faith instead of faith in Christ. That's why movies can be dangerous, we miss things because of emotion.
Often people say "prayer works", but I like to retort, "prayer doesn't work, God works."
Even non-believers tell people they will pray for them, but it means nothing, they almost never do and if they do they don't know who they are praying too, into the wind I think.
We live in a culture now that believes all we have to do is say something and that will make it happen, the power of words.
It matters who we pray to and whether or not we are right with God.
“And when ye spread forth your hands, I will hide mine eyes from you: yea, when ye make many prayers, I will not hear: your hands are full of blood” (Isaiah 1:15).
Many people who don't love God, don't pray to Him, but speak into the air to hear their own voices, are not being heard and have no power.
