I have seen example after example of self-promoting posts exploiting the good folks fighting for the Great Awakening, for personal spiritual gain and them being STICKIED by mods.
Personally, it fatigues me - especially knowing the prayers need to be with the kids and the overall movement the most but more than anything, the ppl posting them have contributed fuck all to any discussion to do with Q and suffer main-character syndrome.
I point to the boards creation and existence, indeed the very paragraph in the sidebar:
We are researchers who deal in open-source information, reasoned argument, and dank memes. We do battle in the sphere of ideas and ideas only. We neither need nor condone the use of force in our work here. WE ARE THE PUBLIC FACE OF Q. OUR MISSION IS TO RED-PILL NORMIES.
This is a pro-Q community. Please read and respect our rules below before contributing.
I also point to the rule:
No PAYtriots/No Self Promotion: Linking or promoting merchandise, fundraising, or spamming personal websites, blogs, or channels is not permitted. Do not attempt to profit from Q or advertise for those who do. Peace is the prize. We do it for free.
I argue these posters are profiting from Q. I suggest including "No PRAYtriot posts" to that rule too. Upvote if you agree, otherwise share your thoughts.
- Edit: at the very least, mods do NOT sticky these posts.
I have no problem with people asking for prayer.
It's one of the main reasons,I like the place.
If you don't like it keep on scrolling
Me either. We need good people of faith for the sake of our Republic.
So is it a prayer board or a research board? I'm confused.
So it's a prayer board now. Got it
Maybe you should research prayer and why Q recommended it.
Upvoted!!
Q asked us to pray for them saving the planet from pure evil and stopping the wholesale rape/torture of children. He never asked us to clog up the reseach boards with personal prayer requests about starting new jobs, issues with your spouse, or stomach aches etc.
Everyone has these problems in life. Luckily most people dont have 'main character issues' and just pray in private like the Bible specifically told us to.
It's not for me to judge how other pray. I keep it simple and short myself....

I don't confuse,people who pray,with being a prophet.....
Step away from the keyboard.
Lol wish I could bang the upvotes on my keyboard !
I think I'll just stick to the boards where the actual progress and research happens
Goodbye. You got ratioed out the door because you griefed about prayer requests.
This place really has gone to shit.
Ok mossad, move along now.
Well depart sonthisnplace may do better.
we will be praying for you.

Best comment.
Dude, if you're offended by prayer, that's on you.
Many of the people i've seen asking for prayer have contributed a ton to this board, it's not like they're asking for donations.
God doesn’t have a limit on his capacity to answer prayers. Praying for someone who isn’t on the “list” doesn’t mean that they get the blessings instead. God isn’t controlled by us or our prayers. Prayer is the gift he gives his children of his attention but he determines outcome. Our petitions are powerful because of him not because of what we ask. 1000 prayers out of obligation are not the same as one from the heart. It isn’t a matter of scarcity there is no scarcity in the power of God he can answer all the prayers of every sparrow and have more than enough. It is sad you feel offended by which prayers others offer or request. I personally think prayer inspires deeper prayer and time with the Lord opens our own ears to hear. Praying over one topic can let you be still and stirred to pray over another. Additionally isn’t it enough we must watch all we say and do in modern society without now checking if our prayers are acceptable???? Who are we to turn to if not our Lord? What is the point of claiming to love my neighbor as myself if I can’t take a moment and lift them up especially in something so beautiful as conversation with my Father? Respectfully I think you should take this to the Lord yourself and ask for his opinion on who is worthy of prayer and why you are offended. I mean that in sincerity and with respect. Spend time in his presence with an open heart. I will be praying for you. Approved or not
What a wonderful response...💝
From the heart. We have a big God with so much love to give
Praise King Jesus! Amen & Amen! Alleluia! I have been targeted for sharing scripture and videos. Everything comes from God, whether they believe it or not. One day soon, if they do not receive Jesus, they will find out fast what the wrath of God is. Amen!
“How, then, can they call on the one they have not believed in? And how can they believe in the one of whom they have not heard? And how can they hear without someone preaching to them?” Romans 10:14
THIS is the fight we can’t lose IMHO. Especially if we free people from deception they will need truth to turn to. God Bless you Fren for sharing his word.
Its a fight I'll enjoin only with others who will involve God.
"Except God be the watchman the watchman waketh but in vain."
So well said Joan!
If you do not like posts, then skip them..this is what I do... I just click on it, and then if it is not anything I enjoy based on what I feel is relevant then I just ignore it.... No harm, No foul
When they're stickied?
They definitely should not be stickied.
That 2nd link is ridiculous. 'Please pray for something or other... I cant say what that something is, but just pray for it'.
God probably marked that one as spam in his inbox.
God knows what is in their heart, even if we don't.
"life changing opportunity that I cant tell you about" . What if you all just prayed for God to help him in his new career as a highly paid hitman or crack dealer?
There are many completely batshit insane people that believe in God and pray for all kinds of batshit insane reasons.

Ok, that's funny Kek
You have a very distorted view if you think asking for prayer is self-promoting...all I can say is I am glad you are not in charge of anything and it really appears you truly lack any compassion or love for your fellow patriots...life happens and asking for intercessory prayer takes a lot of courage and is as far from self-promoting as you can get and very far from personal gain.
You obviously don't understand the power and purpose of prayer and I am sad it sickens you. Just pass them by...the most simple solution. GAW is a community and you don't seem like a community type person, which is your loss.. I will certainly pray that you grow in love and compassion...
“ not in charge of anything “ major truth ! When reading this post I literally flashed on so many Dems in office who have helped to destroy so much of our country due to their desire to have a Godless America ! That song “ God we need you now “ by Struggle Jennings comes to mind! We should be advocating for more prayer ! I do pray this young man never needs a reason to ask for prayer , I truly do ! However , many patriots need prayer and I’m so grateful that so many on here pray for their fellow Americans in need ! Pray without ceasing ,, I believe we are here ! I pray the mods do not consider this request . Sticky’s are important as oftentimes or atleast sometimes the prayer request is sn emergency and we need eyes on now ! I do hope the comments touch this patriots heart and he feels the love of God !
Well said fren.
If this place wasn't Christian, I probably wouldn't be here...l
Thank you my fellow frog Fren ! Breaks my heart that someone would want to shame or deny another human being from something so important . Life can be cruel at times and oftentimes we find ourselves in situations where prayer is not only needed for the outcome of the situation , but for comfort as we face it . We must come together and lift each other up in celebration for the good times and for strength in the bad times . The Bible tells us that demons will block prayer… for God sakes we must not have our fellow humans doing the same ! You’re there for me when I need you or you’re not , there is no middle ground !
Exactly.. people asked for prayers here out of desperation cos maybe they couldn’t get any support in real life and we’re patriots here who can comfort frens.. I don’t know how it’s self promotion to share your problems here. Most of the time I feel really bad reading the stuff some people here are going through and admire their strength because I doubt I could ever be that strong and resilient if faced the same music.
There's a handy Hide button that you can use if these posts bother you.
GAW even has a GIF in support of prayers.
u/#prayer
My dude, you wasted this much energy to complain about prayer posts? Let it go homie, the sun will rise again tomorrow.
I am agnostic but have no feelings against people asking for prayers. If it helps people in this community to feel more comfortable during difficult times I have no wish to block their requests. It may enable advice on how to help at a physical level. There is no pressure on anyone to read the posts, so just skip them.
I kind of see both sides of the discussion. My Mother passed away this mother's day, I never asked for a prayer here, I don't know any of the people here. It seems a little forward to me to ask strangers to pray for something. Humble yourself and all that in front of the Lord. On the other hand, prayers as far as I know, never hurt anything, even from strangers. I don't mind the requests here, I feel it builds community if not well wishes. This is something where you could get many opinions and no one is right or wrong. I just choose to pray silently for everyone and move on. What exactly constitutes a high effort post? Where is the line? I imagine it's different for everyone. Even with the mods I bet there's differences of opinions. I've been on the ban wagon, never took it personally.
I'm sorry for your loss, fren.
even if stickied, you would see what the post is and have the FREEDOM to pass by. why are you looking to limit views on something Christians would be interested in?
Wow great comment ! Thank you ! “Have the freedom to pass by “. Why are you looking to limit views on something Christians would be interested in ?” Two great and powerful statement/ question's ! I wrote a few comments on this thread as well . I’m actually shocked that someone would be so bothered/ disgusted whatever the case may be over someone asking for prayer. What is so hard about ignoring a post if you are a Godless or to be politically correct , an atheist !
I think it convicts the person in their heart that is so disgusted with prayer, God, Jesus. It’s a spiritual war we are in. Scripture is pretty clear, Galatians 6:7 “Be not deceived; God is not mocked: for whatsoever a man soweth, that shall he also reap.”
I’m conflicted with this bc what about when bad things happen to good people?
the rain falls on the just and the unjust" is a biblical saying, specifically from Matthew 5:45
Don’t you think those two contradict each other?
No...
Would you care to elaborate?
You reap what you sow implies bad outcomes comes to those with bad actions. Yet rain falls on just and unjust implies bad outcomes will happen to good and bad people alike.
Sounds like bad outcomes doesn’t necessarily tie to bad actions ?
Also I don’t know why someone (not saying you did this) needs to downvote. I wasn’t trying to be rude. Just trying to understand. And then to not explain the counterpoint after downvoting?
So good ! Thank you !!!
remember, atheism is a religion as well. those that are atheist cannot stand those that have a faith in a higher being...
u/#q4964
Simply because this is not the place to be asking personal favors.
a prayer to God is a personal favor? never thought of it that way...
On the contrary, we have members in locations under siege and are more than happy to help get them to the US.
I've personally written (years ago) a recommendation for someone to immigrate to the US and seek citizenship to the US gov.
If there is a favor we can do a pede, it is up to the individual to grant it. Remember we are frens.
Just block and move on.
Tiresome when they're in the sticky section
One of the fundamental tenets of the Q operation was teaching us that we were in a spiritual battle against principalities and forces that we cannot see; so I fail to understand how your revulsion for prayer is going to help anything, when ultimately, it is the only thing that will help everything. Apparently you missed the memo. 🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏
You are absolutely correct. Thank you.
They aren't the most exciting posts to read, for sure. But I think the idea of these posters "profiting" of them is asinine, as is the idea that prayers should only be reserved for certain ideas. Most of these posts seem to be some variety of "My mother is sick", "my sister is struggling with mental health", or "I am about to lose everything". If the board were being flooded with these posts, I would agree with you. But I only see a few a week. Honestly, I wouldn't feel great being part of a community that outright bans posts like that. I mean, isn't reddit cruel enough?
The best part is seeing the replies of how their family members have benefited from our prayers. It’s very rarely I see a negative report behind the scenes after we’ve collectively prayed for a person. The price reports are the best.
we are here not only to research but to support one another too. i dont see a problem here??
"We are researchers..." for whom? If God isn't the ultimate author and authority over us, we're toast. Prayer is the single most important thing we can do. God speaks to us and inspires and directs our research, but only if we're connected.
I feel the prayers are out of place but should not be banned. Folks asking for prayers here obviously have no other source of spiritual assistance. As a Christian, I feel it is important to allow spiritual introduction any way possible. It may change a person's entire life. Also, if our movement is to succeed we need to attract and be rooted in good works. When a new comer arrives, they can see our motives are good.
Being a smaller community than PDW has its advantages. And, because this place is moderated more heavily, it's very likely that the person that is posting is someone you might know online or at least have talked with previously (I'd likely not a "It's two more weeks, worded letter!" dumbass.
Now, obviously, this isn't Facebook, But GAW has to become a special community to many of us and mods will remove favorite requests for pets, or someone just going in for routine surgery, but, although we really appreciate the very kind and high effort way you presented this topic, we will probably continue monitoring and monitoring the way we have on this particular topic.
As for prayer request folks, prayer is one of the most private experiences and forms of communionship you can have with your creator. There is nothing wrong with having a heartfelt prayer about your request to God stay private, just between you and Him.
Before posting a prayer request online, the mods would recommend that you make sure that your post is relevant in some way to the broader Q community, and is, as always, high info, high effort, and high quality. Thank you.
I’m a Brit and not a Jesus Follower as such but the fact that there’s a God of some sort is unquestionable in my mind. I prefer to call it Source. Also Q mentioned a God and expressed prayers so I do see them as relevant.
Apart from that, I see this group as having a secondary function of our supporting each other.
So, with all due respect to the OP, I vote for keeping the prayer posts.
However, I see the posting of actual prayers in the replies as self-promotion - almost a competition. I’d prefer it if replies were limited to “done” and to relevant support advice or stories.
Just my opinion fwiw.
Done
"relevant in some way to the broader Q community," Very good. That criteria is the difference between prayer requests being relevant or being a form of forum sliding.
We're worldwide and historical. Size of community is not relevant, nor is any one's personal relationship with God.
Please direct them to the daily discussion thread and do NOT sticky them. Appreciate and understand the mission. This movement is not about any one person.
Don't grief the mods!
Let this person vent. They are only expressing their frustration. I get it. All in the comments section just expressed your opinion. We all have longed for Freedom of Speech here and lacking on other platforms. We are being hypocritical if we are ratioing his posts. This makes us no better than the opposition.
For the people requesting Prayers, this maybe their only avenue to make such a personal post. This board is FAMILY to most of us whom been shunned by our own families and friends not yet awaken.
If such posts of requesting prayers annoy you. You have the freedom to scroll past. Personally, I welcome them. Our strength is being united. Welcoming all, warts and all! Stay united, we suffer to much being divided.
May the Dear Lord bless us, POTUS, and the greatest nation because of its people, USA.
You ok? Sounds like you could use a little prayer too!!
Maybe we can create a daily thread where people posts nothing but prayer.
Are you KIDDING ME? Have you learned nothing? God should never be removed from the public square. Your fellow man asks for help you want to turn your back on them? Shame on you! Have you not realized yet that none of this would be possible without God. It’s Gods plan not mans plan. We are full grown adults and I don’t need YOU to tell me what I can see on this platform and whether my prayers for people would be magnified with our support. I don’t need to say anything further but you are missing a large piece of this platform-God is our savior, Great Awakening is driven by Him.
most of these "asking for prayers" posts usually have it in the title. maybe instead of asking for a ban on them, or restricting them, maybe have a tag for them. then when you see that the title is asking for prayer, or has such a tag, you can ignore it and let others do the praying for those that are asking for it. I also think posts asking to ban others posts should be banned. doesnt the logic sound silly now?
The flair is a good, constructive suggestion. How refreshing.
Not for banning? No probs. For stickying though?
I agree that stickies on those posts are a symptom of the board moving away from its core mission. Have you asked the mods about it? They have modmail.
The prayer posts are definitely not Q research nor dank memes, but I'm glad to have them anyway. I think we have bigger problems, like duplicate posts.
Yes, I have repeatedly. Hence making this post.
I can’t imagine somebody being so vexed by people praying for one another, that they’ve contacted the mods and demanded that these prayer posts be removed. Yikes.😬
Dear heavenly father, I lift up choo-choo to you. I don’t know why he’s so vexed by people praying, but I pray that you would soften his heart and that you would work a miracle in his life, and that he would come to a saving knowledge of Christ. I pray that the Holy Spirit would show him who you are personally, and that he would begin to see the beauty of people reaching out to one another and collectively praying for each other.
There’s only one entity on this earth that I think would be against prayer and that Satan himself and his emissary. I pray that you would shut down their voices in the head of choo-choo, and that he would hear your voice more clearly.
I thank you for this opportunity to pray for choo-choo, and hoping that on this beautiful Sunday, that you created… That he would have a peace in his heart, and be open to prayer and having people pray for him and others.
In Jesus name, amen 🙏
God bless you, brother or sister whoever you are 🙏🥰
PRAYER CHANGES THING 💯
Amen & Amen! Alleluia!
Lighten up, Francis
Honestly this site needs to go back to old school ranked posts.
Straight up votes get you to the top. No stickies.
Downvotes send it into the ether.
Or, a general discussion board separate from the main hub.
We are called to pray without ceasing and I am always happy to pray for my friends on here. Bye Felicia I'll pray for you!
@Choo-choo
*Your personal thoughts, take on this SPECIFIC line of thinking is off base BIGLY!
You refer to Q+*....
Yet you fail to understand that Q+ often asks or references Prayers.
Q+ = PRES DONALD J TRUMP
🔹🔹🔹🔹🔹🔹🔹🔹🔹🔹🔹🔹🔹🔹🔹🔹🔹
link to 8 that refer to what you opt to label as self promotion
https://qalerts.app/?q=Pray+for
Since you so boldly stated that we are an elite research board. I thought I would do a research on your claims.
Your example: (this is from 11 months ago)
https://greatawakening.win/p/17tKeD9UFF/i-am-still-under-significant-spi/
Your second example: (this is from 1 day ago)
https://greatawakening.win/p/19BGK4RgoA/asking-for-prayers/c/
So you’re telling me you made a post to complain about people posting about needing prayer, when your examples are 11 months apart? That’s what you’re complaining about? 😂🤪
You might want to sit this one out.
ALSO - the first example is literally a person who is suicidal. So you would rather have somebody kill themselves, instead of ask for prayer because it bothers you personally. Seriously? 😒
I really think that you need to do some more self evaluation, and think about a place that you’re coming from. Because it’s not from God, and it’s evil.
I put a prayer for you in another reply, I hope you receive it.
“And the God of peace will crush Satan under your feet shortly. The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with you. Amen.” Romans 16:20 NKJV https://bible.com/bible/114/rom.16.20.NKJV
Amen & Amen!
Since we're banning, I suggest we ban anti-prayer requests. We wouldn't want anyone to be troubled by God's children calling on others for help.
Banning is a bit much. The stickies may be a bit much too.
Sometimes prayer may be a true emergency and all the person has to hold on to ! Not trying to be dramatic, but life and death is a heart beat or breath away … as in emergency! In a time of desperation and we will most likely all be there someday , we need fast action . When you lose your dog you print big “REWARD “ to get fast attention ! Same concept … I realize you know all this and you were most likely being diplomatic, but with all the Godless retoric in our country today I feel as though I needed to stand on my soap box lol !
Point taken. You're right.
Glad I'm not a Mod. Kek.
Well since you changed your mind I wish you were lol ,, thank you for being reasonable, and you did say no to banning prayer which is the most important of the two !
No, I just thought maybe a sticky was unnecessary.
stickies here are usually only up a day or two. I do not see a reason to stop them from being stickied, they can be ignored if one does not like the subject...
I hear ya ! Sometimes if things have gotten to where you’re asking For prayer it’s important / urgent and need of a flashing type light to get attention. i don’t believe people are posting with generic prayer request ..,” just woke will you all pray that I have a super day “ lol
Prayer isn't self promotion. It's a fellow fren down on his luck needing good vibes and help from God. Scroll over it, no one is forcing you to read it. Wwg1wga. Good wishes are free.
Use the hide button. I use it on a lot of the reposts of gateway pundit articles and daily threads.
Disagree. I pray for anyone asking. In fact I'll argue the best leverage we have as a group of patriots is to pray for each other. Without God involved the entire thing is worthless. If we are going to battle we better be armed with the weapons that let us win. This is a spiritual war.
I have no problem with prayer requests, I think it's a power we must all awaken anyway might as well get the ball roling. No sence being a prayer karen!
Prayer is the lifeblood of a Christian’s walk with God. Prayer connects us to God, prayer is an active way to love and connect with others, and prayer makes room in the pray-er’s heart for God’s correcting voice. The Bible says to “pray continually” (1 Thessalonians 5:17), so anything other than a continual attitude of prayer and communion with God is sin. Anything that interrupts our connection to God or leads to self-reliance is wrong.
Can you imagine someone claiming to be your best friend and never talking to you? Whatever friendship was there would certainly be strained. Similarly, a relationship with God is impoverished and fatigued without communication. Prayerlessness is antithetical to a good relationship with God. God’s people will have a natural desire to communicate with their Lord. “In the morning, Lord, you hear my voice; in the morning I lay my requests before you and wait expectantly” (Psalm 5:3). The biblical commands to pray are accompanied by wonderful promises: “The LORD is near to all who call on him, to all who call on him in truth” (Psalm 145:18).
Christ is our best example of prayerfulness. He Himself was a man of prayer (see Luke 3:21; 5:16; 9:18, 28; 11:1), and He taught His followers to pray (Luke 11:2–4). If the Son of Man saw a personal need to pray, how much more should we see the same need in ourselves?
Prayerlessness ignores the gift of intercession that God has given us. We are called to pray for our brothers and sisters in Christ (James 5:16). Paul often solicited the prayers of God’s people on his behalf (Ephesians 6:19; Colossians 4:3; 1 Thessalonians 5:25), and he was faithful to pray for them (Ephesians 1:16; Colossians 1:9). The prophet Samuel saw prayers on behalf of the people of Israel as a necessary part of his ministry: “As for me, far be it from me that I should sin against the LORD by failing to pray for you” (1 Samuel 12:23). According to Samuel, prayerlessness is a sin.
Prayerlessness is defiance toward God’s command to love others. And we are not only to pray for people who are easy to pray for. “I urge, then, first of all, that petitions, prayers, intercession and thanksgiving be made for all people” (1 Timothy 2:1). Jesus tells us that we must also pray for those who persecute us (Matthew 5:44). This is the message of Christ, to love and support everyone with prayer, even those who are hard to love.
Prayer makes room for the correcting voice of God. Prayerlessness weakens our ability to hear Christ when He whispers words of correction or conviction to our spirits. Hebrews 12:2 reminds us that Christ is the “pioneer and perfecter of faith.” Without His Spirit living in our hearts, we would be on a rough road following our own judgments. As we pray for God’s will to be done “on earth as it is in heaven” (Matthew 6:10), the contrariness of our own wills is revealed.
Matthew 26:41 offers another admonition: “Watch and pray so that you will not fall into temptation.” Prayerlessness clouds our hearts to the temptations surrounding us and leads to further sin. We only become wise to the ways of our hearts through the Spirit’s illumination and direction. And it’s only in the Spirit’s power that our prayers are effective (see Romans 8:26–27).
Prayer is our lifeline and connection to God. Christ showed the opposite of prayerlessness in His walk on earth and modelled a prayer-filled life.
Discussion: fuck off and fuck you, rethink everything and I mean everything, go to the mirror and contemplate how to fix your face as well because the way you're talking you sound like a real moron covered in blackheads with unkempt eyebrows and a horrible joke of a haircut.
Using your logic we would have to ban the under God part of the pledge or ban prayer from the classroom. This is a Christian country, this forum is about awakening to why israel is being saved for last. Any prayer request is not a failing of logic on Q lore, it's an awakening to God lore.
Describe my logic for me.
Because Q said pray like.. how many times??

Q post #4429
The Armor of God Finally, be strong in the Lord and in his mighty power. Put on the full armor of God, so that you can take your stand against the devil’s schemes. For our struggle is not against flesh and blood, but against the rulers, against the authorities, against the powers of this dark world and against the spiritual forces of evil in the heavenly realms. Therefore put on the full armor of God, so that when the day of evil comes, you may be able to stand your ground, and after you have done everything, to stand. Stand firm then, with the belt of truth buckled around your waist, with the breastplate of righteousness in place, and with your feet fitted with the readiness that comes from the gospel of peace. In addition to all this, take up the shield of faith, with which you can extinguish all the flaming arrows of the evil one. 17 Take the helmet of salvation and the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God. And pray in the Spirit on all occasions with all kinds of prayers and requests. With this in mind, be alert and always keep on praying for all the Lord’s people. Have faith in Humanity. Have faith in Yourself. Have faith in God. The Great Awakening. Q
"And pray in the Spirit on all occasions with all kinds of prayers and requests."
What does that mean?
Cmon demon.. tell me what it means? I see you
verse 18. its the most important of all the pieces of armor.
cept - im not demonized
Message intended only for choo choo
Demon. Kek
Jesus just did a kek too. He's gonna send you that angel thats gonna tap on your shoulder.. tap tap.. and he's going to say God has a PLAN for you. Verbatim.
Nah uh, you don't dictate my relationship to Jesus.
Amen & Amen! I pray this every single day, because we are fighting spiritual wickedness in high places, principalities.
