    Begging doesn’t move God. Complaining doesn’t sway Him, but praise causes the Creator of the universe to show up.

        No. Just, no, @JoelOsteen. God isn’t a needy child who’s dependent on our praise to show up. Where there is suffering, pain, worry, despair, God is already there. God shows up to heal, renew, restore, and to walk beside us in the midst of it all. Lament is okay. Read the psalms.

        I think Joel has confused @realDonaldTrump with God. I know for damn sure Donny ain’t doing nothing if he isn’t gonna get an ego stroke out of it.

        Thank you, can you please send me scriptures that support the following statements: "begging doesn't move God" & "Complaining doesn't sway Him"? I'm very much aware of scriptures that support your last statement: "Praise causes the Creator of the universe to show up". Pls reply🌸

        Agree petunia. I dont think there’s any scripture that says begging doesnt move God.

        Thanks Jasmin🌸. I also don't think so. But let's give him a chance to respond. Let's hear what he has to say. I'm really looking forward to that.... ☺

        Amen, praise is the place of God enthroned and also the expression of our faith. We are created to praise, glorify and magnify His name through praise. When we praise God, He will visit us and His power descend upon our lives (Ps. 66: 1-2)...🙏😊

        Really? When you say “have mercy on me oh Lord”, God ignores that? I beg to disagree. Yes we praise, but let’s not feel shy about begging to God. We need Him.

        Asking God to have mercy on you isn’t the same as begging. He didn’t word the tweet well but he’s just saying that asking God over & over does not make him come faster or even come at all. I have to say though, God is just always on Time , with or without praise.

        So God only listens to praise? I'm sorry, but I can't imagine Deity turning a blind eye and ear to His creation, to only respond to praise. Why would God not listen to EVERY honest, humble expression of need?
