Can prayer control weather?

Question

Donna: Always a pleasure to hear from the Big Apple.

Answer 1

Good question, the answer is obvious. No.

Answer 2

    Praying can't, but true faith in God can.  God is preparing this world for his sons, return.  I hope you don't believe in Global Warming, for that is all a ruse to gain more power over the people.

     I said years ago, that our civilization shall be the only civilization that will record the end of the world, and people ignored me, just like they ignored Noah when he began building an Ark on dry land with no rain in site.

     God has let his Angels who control the weather and has turned them loose upon the earth, yet the majority don't believe in such truths, for to them it's fantasy, or nonsense.

     1 Corinthians; 3; 18,19.  Let no man deceive himself.  If any man among you seemeth to be wise in the world, let him become a fool, that he may be wise.    For the wisdom of this world is foolishness with God.  For it is written, He taketh the wise in their own craftiness.

     I may be a fool in the eyes of the world, but as long as I'm not a fool in Gods eyes.  God controls everything, just by his word.

1 Kings 18

1And it came to pass after many days, that the word of the LORD came to Elijah in the third year, saying, Go, shew thyself unto Ahab; and I will send rain upon the earth....

21And Elijah came unto all the people, and said, How long halt ye between two opinions? if the LORD be God, follow him: but if Baal, then follow him. And the people answered him not a word.

22Then said Elijah unto the people, I, even I only, remain a prophet of the LORD; but Baal's prophets are four hundred and fifty men.

23Let them therefore give us two bullocks; and let them choose one bullock for themselves, and cut it in pieces, and lay it on wood, and put no fire under: and I will dress the other bullock, and lay it on wood, and put no fire under:

24And call ye on the name of your gods, and I will call on the name of the LORD: and the God that answereth by fire, let him be God. And all the people answered and said, It is well spoken.

25And Elijah said unto the prophets of Baal, Choose you one bullock for yourselves, and dress it first; for ye are many; and call on the name of your gods, but put no fire under.

26And they took the bullock which was given them, and they dressed it, and called on the name of Baal from morning even until noon, saying, O Baal, hear us. But there was no voice, nor any that answered. And they leaped upon the altar which was made.

27And it came to pass at noon, that Elijah mocked them, and said, Cry aloud: for he is a god; either he is talking, or he is pursuing, or he is in a journey, or peradventure he sleepeth, and must be awaked.

28And they cried aloud, and cut themselves after their manner with knives and lancets, till the blood gushed out upon them.

29And it came to pass, when midday was past, and they prophesied until the time of the offering of the evening sacrifice, that there was neither voice, nor any to answer, nor any that regarded.

30And Elijah said unto all the people, Come near unto me. And all the people came near unto him. And he repaired the altar of the LORD that was broken down.

31And Elijah took twelve stones, according to the number of the tribes of the sons of Jacob, unto whom the word of the LORD came, saying, Israel shall be thy name:

32And with the stones he built an altar in the name of the LORD: and he made a trench about the altar, as great as would contain two measures of seed.

33And he put the wood in order, and cut the bullock in pieces, and laid him on the wood, and said, Fill four barrels with water, and pour it on the burnt sacrifice, and on the wood.

34And he said, Do it the second time. And they did it the second time. And he said, Do it the third time. And they did it the third time.

35And the water ran round about the altar; and he filled the trench also with water.

36And it came to pass at the time of the offering of the evening sacrifice, that Elijah the prophet came near, and said, LORD God of Abraham, Isaac, and of Israel, let it be known this day that thou art God in Israel, and that I am thy servant, and that I have done all these things at thy word.

37Hear me, O LORD, hear me, that this people may know that thou art the LORD God, and that thou hast turned their heart back again.

38Then the fire of the LORD fell, and consumed the burnt sacrifice, and the wood, and the stones, and the dust, and licked up the water that was in the trench.

39And when all the people saw it, they fell on their faces: and they said, The LORD, he is the God; the LORD, he is the God....

42So Ahab went up to eat and to drink. And Elijah went up to the top of Carmel; and he cast himself down upon the earth, and put his face between his knees,

43And said to his servant, Go up now, look toward the sea. And he went up, and looked, and said, There is nothing. And he said, Go again seven times.

44And it came to pass at the seventh time, that he said, Behold, there ariseth a little cloud out of the sea, like a man's hand. And he said, Go up, say unto Ahab, Prepare thy chariot, and get thee down that the rain stop thee not.

45And it came to pass in the mean while, that the heaven was black with clouds and wind, and there was a great rain. And Ahab rode, and went to Jezreel.

Answer 6

Nothing we do or say really has any effect, of any value, on anything unless first we understand the subject at hand well enough to make a judgment as to what we should do or say in order to create the desired effect. Ok, that was a bit wordy. But what I mean is that unless we understand the reality of a situation first, how could we know if we should try to effect it and if we should, how?

Take Gustav for example. Everyone is trying to figure out all kinds of things right now. What kind of storm will it bring to land, How many people will be affected, What can we do to prevent loss of life and help those that are in the path of harms way....etc...?  Although we do need to be asking all these question and more, there is one thing that most people are NOT looking into and that is WHY this storm and others like it, and all the other natural and not so natural disasters, are happening all over the world in the first place.

Until we understand that there is a reason for all the things we see here to be happening and learn to do what we can to help solve the problems that they bring, we can only expect  to be left enduring even greater hardships until we do. People often focus on large groups or organizations to come up with solutions to the situations causing us death and destruction but perhaps it is only by our own individual effort, that life here on earth can become as it should be with all people living in the peace that we are all searching for.

Long answer for a very short question I realize. There are my thoughts about it none the less. I hope I was able to help in some way. Here is a very cool video explaining more if you are interested. It does a great job describing the conditions we are living in and what we, each one here can do to help. Best wishes.
