God has given us all the true meaning of life so why do you pray and what for?

Question

God created male and femail and blessed them (why bless his creation). God then said unto them (commanded) "Be fruitfull & muliply & replimish the Earth and subdue it have dominion over it".

God created us and gave this to us as his first commandment for us to do and then put us In the most Beautifull world that he had created for us. This is the true meaning of life, no more and no less.

So what are people praying for and why, why are they not doing exactly what God had created them for in his first commandment and that is to live and to "Be fruitfull & muliply & replimish the Earth and subdue it & have dominion over it". It is as simple as that so why do people have to complicate seraching for the meaning of life when you have been commanded by God to do exactly what he ordered you to do, and that did not mean to pray or give thanks that was not Gods comandment.

Please tell me why you pray and give thanks and not do as God really created and commanded you for to do?

Answer 1

because I'm not Christian

so it's different for me

even though your religion demands that it is the only true one, to many others, that is only what your book says because it wanted to take over the world with its message.  but many of us already have our own

anyway

and they are different

I pray by merely knowing what i need next

and i know what i need next by not thinking, byletting the awareness come to me

that is how i learned to run on God's will, not my own

so my prayers never plead

I go on as if my life is already destined, and i am just becoming aware of it as i go

its all kind of bhuddist i guess

Answer 2

not everyone is gifted to understand the meaning of life. By the sound of it, you yourself  dont know otherwise, you would know the answer to your question.

We pray because we want to tell God we love him, thank him for his blessings, and at the end of our very last day, we pray that he will take us with him in His kingdom.

Answer 3

I would say prayer for me is a way of meditation of God's will because sometimes in this world we live in you must meditate on it so that you do not stray because temptation is always at your fingertips.

Answer 4

Philosophically speaking your out of your league, find the appropriate section and post your smoke & mirrors nonsense.

Answer 5

why don't you ask a priest if you have so many doubts and questions?

    there are some ppl that have to see it to believe it, the more technical ppl

   then there are the others, the ones that follow their beliefs even when they are being questioned...I am a firm believer in God and prayer. Prayer is a sort of meditation, i feel relaxed and so peaceful when i pray, it also gives me hope.

Answer 6

Why are you asking?  What about people who were created by God without the ability to multiply and replenish the Earth?  I pray for safety in this world that can be as horrible as it is good.

Answer 7

For one, you shouldn't state these things like they are facts. They're your opinions. People have many beliefs, and praying gives people a sense of hope. I pray all the time.. just for him to watch over my family and friends.

Answer 8

I dont pray because I believe Ive been given enough and all that I need.

Answer 9

It's deeper than that.

God gave us many orders to follow, but He also gave us free will. We have the choice to either follow Him or not.

Go to Heaven or go to h**l.

The meaning of life, the reason for it all is to do Gods will, according to Gods will, only.  To follow His instructions and be repentant when you don't.

Doing God's will so that we can reap the reward of heaven, that's the meaning of life.  That's what it's all about.

Being fruitful and multiplying is just the first command.+

In regards to prayer.

God wants us to pray to Him, to talk to Him on a daily basis like a child would talk to his or her earthly father or mother.  God wants us to ask Him for what we need in this life, especially, but He especially wants us to ask for strength, wisdom, courage, knowledge, love, patience, forgiveness, healing, hope. and of course, to thank Him for the everything that He has bestowed upon us.
