Are prayers for God to overturn the election valid?

Pray in secret so you are not influenced by others.

S2:E7 EPISODE SUMMARY

In this episode, Pastor Adam answers the question, “Are prayers for God to overturn the election valid?” Some people have been praying for certain election results. Some of these prayers speak of violence and invoke the God of the sword to strike, strike, strike. Adam’s listeners ask if these are authentic prayers.

Some of the people speak in tongues. Scripture states when people speak in tongues, there needs to be a translator.

Jesus’ advice on how to pray is to pray in secret. Pray in secret so you are not influenced by others. Public prayers may be influenced the people around us.
