Prayer is not powerful as some believe. It is God who is powerful and He only answers those who pray in His Son's name, Jesus Christ.
The prosperity preachers believe prayer all by itself works to get you what you want. It a power of the mind worship. they believe it doesn't matter which god you choose ultimately you are the god that makes things happen.
It matters to whom you pray. If not to the one true God in the name of His Son Jesus Christ, then your prayers fall to the ground without power.
And, God will only answer if you ask in His will.
1 John 5:13-15 "13 I have written these things to you who believe in the name of the Son of God, so that you may know that you have eternal life. 14 And this is the confidence that we have before Him: If we ask anything according to His will, He hears us. 15 And if we know that He hears us in whatever we ask, we know that we already possess what we have asked of Him.…"
Jeremiah 29:12-14 "…12 Then you will call upon Me and come and pray to Me, and I will listen to you. 13 You will seek Me and find Me when you search for Me with all your heart. 14 I will be found by you, declares the LORD, and I will restore you from captivity and gather you from all the nations and places to which I have banished you, declares the LORD. I will restore you to the place from which I sent you into exile."
God will not answer the prayers of those who choose a god of their own imagination.
