God is faithful, right? Well in Matthew 21:22 it says that if you faith that all of your prayers will be done. Read it. Also in Matthew 7:7 it says that ask and you shall receive, knock and the door shall open. If you ask you wil get God promises it. Maybe not how you see it like asking for money and a twenty dollar bill falls from the sky but more that you get creative ideas to make the money. Jesus said that he did not come for the well he came for the sick. Of corse he hears the prayers of the unbeleiver and is faithful to answer. Otherwise no one would be saved. I know plenty of people that became beleivers because their prayers were answered and they wearn’t saved. God is not an exclusive club, God is for everyone and wants everyone to be happy and to love even in the hardships. Keep faith when you ask for something through God keep to it and don’t lose heart.
Thank you.

It involves judging whether or not someone is worthy of God’s help or not. It is a bit like asking how many angels can stand on the head of a pin, if you will excuse me for saying so.

My answer for this does not involve judging anyone, which is the purview of God. In both Exodus 35 and twice in Romans 9, there are scriptures which state that God will show mercy on whom he will have mercy. Though I am ready to share my beliefs with anyone at any time, i know that for some people it takes many years for the seed to grow, and I never know at what stage that person is, I just share as the Holy Spirit guides me.

I will say this, however. I worry and feel much sorrow for those who don’t know Christ and the possibility that they will not be saved. The one thought I use to help me manage to go through life without weeping all the time is the idea that God will have mercy on whom He will. And I further remember that however much I love and worry about the lost, Christ’s love and worry far exceeds mine. So I know that He will use every possible way to save everyone He can. And with that, I must be content.

I am a perfect example of the need for Christ in my life. I AM a believer in Jesus Christ and in dire need of his will in my life and total direction for my good and for His Glory. In Jesus Holy name, Amen.
I so enjoy your ministry…please pray for my soul to be saved and for every one who seeks Him.

The only prayer from unbelievers that God listens to is the prayer of repentance. To be saved, one must not only believe in Christ (because even the demons believe in Christ), but one must also turn away (the meaning of repentance) from their sins. I think when an unbeliever prays about something other than salvation and something happens the way the unbeliever wanted it to go, it is because God willed it, not because God granted their prayer. It’s true in the case if a Christian were praying for the recovery of a sick friend but that friend died. It’s not that God didn’t answer their prayer, He willed the death of that friend. God is not a magic genie so that He can grant our wishes. Who are we to question the mind of God anyway?

Especially if they call out in desperation. Who are we to say that God doesn’t listen to NON christians. Just because we HAVE been saved(but are still sinners)does not mean that GODS work is finished. WE are his diciples and are to do his work, which means, SAVING NON CHRISTIANS. i WAS once a non believer and if GOD hadn’t listened to me as the true and loving FATHER he is, i may not have been saved. BUT i am still a sinner…. God is the only one who knows the truth about a NON believer and we are here to help save non believers thro GOD our WONDERFUL PRECIOUS EVER LISTENING FATHER. who knows (beside GOD) who are reading these comments???? Pray daily for NON believers to be saved.

And that God is there for everyone and close to everyone and holding everyones hand and is everyones strengh.

But,why would a non-believer pray to a Lord he doesn’t know? I believe that the only prayer God hears from a non believer is the prayer asking for salvation. BFG

Why not? He listens and is listening the prayers of all because the earth and everything there is of Him. We found God had listened and answered Cornelius in Acts 10. He heard my prayers to Him in the name of Hindu gods from my boyhood days and at the right time in 1982, He accepted me, made me Christian and anointed me for His Commission.

Thank you, Isaac, India
