Be informed here and now that incessant prayers does  not finger God to open the Windows of heaven. What God wants to see Is your passion towards success and your giving drive...nothing else!

About This Quote

In the book of James, chapter 4, verse 13, it is written: “Be informed here and now that incessant prayers does not finger God to open the Windows of heaven. What God wants to see is your passion towards success and your giving drive. Nothing else!” In this quote, Muhammad Saeed Akhtar Hussain Al-Hujwiri argues that a good understanding of the nature of God is essential to understanding the true purpose of prayer. A number of commentators on these verses have argued that they refer to a type of prayer that does not actually consist of specific prayer words. Instead, it consists of love of God and love of humanity.
