Do God take care of us only if we praise him?

Socrates may have been a great philosopher but he may not have understood God. To praise means to speak highly of someone. Does God not deserve that from us every day? How do we feel about people that do not appreciate what is done for them? Why should God give consideration to those that don't appreciate and recognize what he does?

Do you need to remind that you want to eat? God is everywhere just because we are from the same molecules belonging to him. Prayer is how to plan, how to relax. Psychologically prepare yourself for every challenge. Moreover, God can not intervene in your decision, it is a proven he sacrificed himself for humanity. Your decision is free, with whom you are and where you go.

You are very correct my friend,that God always guides our ways whether we pray or not to Him,because He was always in our ways and means,that He was the only way and truth that shall prevail in His well.As long as we always put into our heart that God is our only Savior and God,there is no other god that we worship and adore.He would always lead us to salvation and guide our ways very safe places.We could never encounter any accidents and we live a longer life.

God has created us complete with faculties and everything we need in order to live. He has also granted us freewill so that we could choose how to live our life. It is then within our choice if we want to acknowledge and show our gratefulness for all His gifts which we could do through our prayers. That is He showered us His love and it is within our will if we decide to recognize this and love Him in return.

Answer: Nope, we take care of ourselves by praising God. Explanation: When we worship/praise god, our soul is in with him and we won't do anything wrong with that kind of mindset and that's why good things happen to us. However, if we are not worshiping god, that means, we don't have interest in good things and once you have interest in bad things, no need to say the consequences are bound to be bad. I've no idea why someone like Socrates had this kind of silly question that too regarding the almighty god.

A good question.I too have pondered over it many times,and my conclusion is that God doesn't need any certificate from us mortals.Prayers are not praises.Prayers are,in fact,a way through which we remember Him.And remembering him is bound to be praising and thanking Him for everything He has given to us.When you remember Him,you can't help praising Him,because He is so great that remembering Him automatically turns into His praises.And when we remember Him by heart,we follow His laws.When we follow His laws,we automatically attract His blessings. I may not have expressed myself properly,because English is not my mother tongue,but here is what I think about praying God.

Hi roshigo, Although many believe it to be necessary,God does not need our worship. How we think really depends on our concept of God. Socrates understood this but like many wise teachers he taught by asking questions. We learn by thinking things out for ourselves and not by simply accepting what another tells us is true - that is just indoctrination or brainwashing. God speaks to us all through the small still voice within and I never ceased to be amazed how answers to our questions come with a knowing that is often beyond our comprehension. Ask yourself, why would an almighty God need our little minds to worship him? Blessings.

God is watching us all. My belief taught me to praise God and to give thanks for all HIS Blessing and kindness. God takes care of us -whether we ask Him or not because God is Love.

I tend to believe that God will take care of regardless of whether or not we sing our praises to God. The reason that I feel that this is the case is because of the fact that each and every one of us are God's children and for that reason God cares about all of us. Think about it this way, we as parents care about our children regardless of whether or not they listen to us or that kind of thing.

for me God always take care us even some of us don't go to the church,even some of us never praise Him,or even some of us never pray for Him,because God loves us unconditionally,and that is our God who can give everything for us.

God does not have an ego like we do. We are time wasters on earth. We want payment for everything. Man has to pray to God; God does not need your prayers; you need His. And many of us take all this too literally. The strength you find sometimes just for being good to others is karma. You do something nice for someone, and don't expect anything for it and don't talk about the kind deed you did, somehow it comes back to you. Reward comes to those who are kind to others and don't expect gifts or money for everything.

I agree with you. God have the ability to solve all our issues and problems without prayer. Still we are praying for our peace of mind. Prayers have the ability to relax and refresh us, we forget about all our worries while praying and keep our focus with god which gives peace of mind to us.

Hi ! God is love ! Whether we are there for God or not , be assured that God is with us always. He is there for us to listen to any murmurs we have, even with our silence , He is still there listening . We may love God or not , still He love us beyond compare ! He got unconditional love for us ! God is not only good if we are good to Him , even the most sinner , He still loved very much. Before we are conceived God already have loved us.

Religion has convinced people that there is an invisible man living in the sky.Who watches everything you do every minute of every day...and the invisible man has a list of ten specific things he does not want you to do,and if you do any of these things he will send you to a special place,of burning and fire and smoke and torture and anguish for you to live forever,and suffer,and suffer,and burn and scream,until the end of time...but he loves you.He loves you....he loves you and he needs money.

All humans are his children, whether they are bad or good, pray or don't pray they are still his children and he watches over us, or that is what we are lead or made to believe. Of course that only goes if you actually believe there is a God up there, listening, depending on your faith and religion. I lost my faith at 15 years old when he took away my nan, made her suffer for 10 years with cancer, I never understood why such a caring, compassionate God could make someone suffer. I wonder just how much God does care when people are killing each other, the famine, the diseases, and young children cut down in their prime, where is he then? Does God really care when people are suffering on his good Earth?

God knows everything about us,what is in our thoughts and in our hearts. He gave us free will so we can chose what we want to but HE ofcourse hopes that we will always choose the right way.

Hi, Not in the least. God takes care of everyone regardless of his or her attitude toward him. If he does make distinctions, then those who do not know him and do not worship him would not be around for long. In fact, he cares more for those who are outside the fold, those are gone astray and are lost, outside of his graces and blessings. He came not for the righteous, not for those who worship and praise him but those who are lost, sick, homeless and those who are too weak to lift his arms in supplication due his wretched life.

Whether we believe or not, God always take care all of us. Because He is The Ruler. Yes He know everything, but we are encourage to pray to Him to show our respect and our faith to Him. And by doing that, we can feel more secure in facing this life.

Hi roshigo, I do agree with that statement, God is always us even when we do not deserve him to be..He is there to help us throught our lives...I truly do believe this.... Have a great sunday.....

Yes, you are right, roshigo...God always with us, no matter we pray or not. Actually He knows what we need in our life, but we are human that is accompanied with the brain to think all about our live. Pray is important to help us stronger to face some problems that come to our life, it does not for God, but it for us. God will become god although we never think and never pray to Him. It is my opinion based on my belief.
