When our president asks the nation to pray he is asking non-believers to pray. God never hears the prayers of unbelievers. A born again believer understands this principle.
John 9:31 "31 We know that God does not listen to sinners, but He does listen to the one who worships Him and does His will. "
Proverbs 28:9
"If one turns away his ear from hearing the law, even his prayer is an abomination."
1 Peter 3:12
"For the eyes of the Lord are on the righteous, and his ears are open to their prayer. But the face of the Lord is against those who do evil.”
Psalm 66:18
"If I had cherished iniquity in my heart, the Lord would not have listened."
Isaiah 59:2
"But your iniquities have made a separation between you and your God, and your sins have hidden his face from you so that he does not hear."
James 4:3
"You ask and do not receive, because you ask wrongly, to spend it on your passions."
James 4:8
"Draw near to God, and he will draw near to you. Cleanse your hands, you sinners, and purify your hearts, you double-minded."
