Well, "In a Sense!" Satan (the source of Human Nature) has limited power,
and it (Human Nature) can make those that pray selfish prayers believe by
desire that Yahweh has answered their prayers; AND, although sin won't
earn you a place or reward in Yahweh's Kingdom On Earth, it (Human
Nature) has been known to pay off quite remarkably in "Worldly Gain."
However, this message is about those that think they are praying to Yahweh,
and Satan (Human Nature) is causing people to assume that YHVH is
answering their prayers.
Matthew 7:13-23
13 Enter in by the narrow gate; for wide is the gate, and broad is the
way, that leads to destruction, and many are those who enter in by it.
14 How narrow is the gate, and restricted is the way that leads to life!
Few are those who find it.
17 Even so, every good tree brings forth good fruit; but the corrupt
tree brings forth evil fruit.
18 A good tree can't bring forth evil fruit, neither can a corrupt tree
bring forth good fruit.
19 Every tree that doesn't grow good fruit is cut down, and thrown
into the fire (Gehenna Hell).
21 Not everyone who says to me, 'L_rd, L_rd,' will enter into the
Kingdom of Heaven; but he who does the will of my Father who is
in heaven.
23 Then I will tell them, 'I never knew you. Depart from me, you
who work iniquity.'
Nowhere in Yahweh's Holy Scriptures does it promise Yahweh's "Called",
"Appointed" or "Chosen" that they will be materially prospered as
individuals prior to the return of the Messiah to the Earth; and nowhere
do the Holy Scriptures ever state or give an example where Yahweh ever
prospered any individual who prayed a selfish prayer for personal
prosperity or gave their tithes with the intent to be prospered. Yahweh does
not hear, much less answer, the prayers of the self-centered or selfish
person, but He does hear the prayers of the righteous and selfless "True
Believer."
Job 22:21-29
21 "Acquaint yourself with Him (Yahweh), now, and be at peace.
Thereby good shall come to you.
22 Please receive instruction from His mouth, And lay up His words
in your heart.
23 If you return to the Almighty, you shall be built up, If you put
away unrighteousness far from your tents.
24 Lay your treasure in the dust (cast away Earthly wealth), The gold of
Ophir among the stones of the brooks.
Satan (Human Nature) has no love for mankind, not even for those that
foolishly worship it (Human Nature or SELF) as their god. Satan (Human
Nature or SELF) actually hates mankind in general, because Satan (Human
Nature) knows that Yahweh has preferred His Own Righteous Nature over
Human Nature (Satan).
Psalms 8:4-5
4 What is man, that you think of him? The son of man, that you care
for him?
5 For you have made him a little lower than the angels, and
crowned him with glory and honor (made lower than angels, but to be
raised up as Yahweh's children and served by angels).
Acts 10:1-4
Now there was a certain man in Caesarea, Cornelius by name, a
centurion of what was called the Italian Regiment,
2 a devout man, and one who feared Yahweh with all his house,
who gave gifts for the needy generously to the people, and always
prayed to Yahweh.
3 At about the ninth hour of the day, he clearly saw in a vision an
angel of Yahweh coming to him, and saying to him, "Cornelius!"
4 He, fastening his eyes on him, and being frightened, said, "What is
it, Lord?" He said to him, "Your prayers and your gifts to the needy
have gone up for a memorial before Yahweh.
Matthew 21:22
"And whatever things you ask in prayer,believing (Strong's #4100,
"pisteuo," meaning to have faith with respect to Righteous Truth; Strong's
#4102), you will receive."
And the truth is: Yahweh ignores the prayers of the unrighteous (selfish),
even when they think He is listening.
