In the news a preacher who is going around asking the people to pray for lower gas prices? Would you join him?

Question

I am. I live 20 miles from town and 10 miles from the nearest store.

Answer 1

for sure

Answer 2

Why?  Does God care how much we pay for gas?

If you want the price of gas to go down, then get people to use less gas.  It's really that simple.

Answer 3

Me too, I'll join in.

Answer 4

Well, maybe but I would have to question the preacher..he should know that prayer alone without action may not always work that's were this really cool thing called free will comes in to  play. God loves to see us in action. Now if he got a bunch a people together and wrote congress I would be praying for the hearts of those congressmen and women.

Answer 5

Not me. When my aunt was sick the whole church prayed for her and she died.

Answer 6

Hasn't he got anything better to pray for given all the misery and suffering in the world?  Sure gas prices are a pain  but it is an economic and political problem, not a moral one.

He should read his bible, follow Jesus who walked or got an occasional ride on a donkey.

Answer 7

I would pray for preacher and his people to know growing castor beans for oil instead.

Answer 8

I think their are more important problems to pray for.
