I'm buying a motorcycle that will crack 200 mph, and I need more safety than just the standard gear...can I pray for a force field?

does god do force fields? i don't really want to wear a helmet or leather gear, i'd really rather ride in shorts, and just be protected by my force field...

Only if you having a force field is 'gods will'.



That's what I call one hell of a disclaimer.

First of all friend most states have a helmet law I believe. And it is just common sense to protect ones self in the best way possible.

There is a sense of freedom to riding without gear (leathers, helmet, and such) but damn I do hate road rash. I rode a pan head for many years and always suited up just to make sure that I didn't task the Goddess too much, anyway why would I want to ask for something so foolish?

Unles syour on the autobond (spelling) you'll never be able to use that nachine to it's full potential.

Gear down friend and stop to watch the scenery, asking for a force field is like asking for all green lights, it does not just effect you, think about consiquences before asking for things.

For thousands of years, people have said that their god was behind what they didn't understand -- life, lightning, stars, earthquakes, the origin of life, the world or the universe, etc. Positing a god to supposedly answer a question solves nothing. It just stops you from asking more questions. There are many well-respected physicists, such as Stephen Hawking, Lawrence Krauss, Sean M. Carroll, Victor Stenger, Michio Kaku, Alan Guth, Alex Vilenkin, Robert A.J. Matthews, and Nobel laureate Frank Wilczek, who have created scientific models where the Big Bang and thus the entire universe could arise from nothing but a quantum vacuum fluctuation -- via natural processes. "To surrender to ignorance and call it God has always been premature, and it remains premature today." — Isaac Asimov For more, watch the video at the 1st link - "A Universe From Nothing" by Lawrence Krauss. -

In ephesians 6 there is a list of the Spiritual Armor with which He will protect you.

Loins girt about with Truth, and having on the breastplate of Righteousness, feet shod with the preparation of the Gospel of Peace, Shield of Faith, able to quench all the fiery darts of the wicked, Helmet of Salvation, and the Sword of the Spirit, which is the Word of God.



Put those on first....pray to the Father in the name of Jesus Christ for the wisdom to pray as you ought.

Then...who knows? It is possible, actually. Anyone that tells you outrightly NO is mistaken, but you have to be in His Glory and in a place of rightful worship and reverence to know how to ask for the things that come in the supernatural realm.

I usually pray for one before I drive every day.



My car is a crappy citroen C3..anyone whove seen the thing will know it can turn over in the slightest wrong turn.



anyway...one day I was driving at around 60 mph on the express way and i lost control..



my life flashed infront of my eyes as i tried to maintain control of the car..



first it skid to the right, and i broke the wheel in order not to hit the guy next lane...then it skid to the left, i broke the wheel one more time and the car skid past 3 lanes onto the far right, missing the guy in the middle lane.



I broke the wheel one more time and it made a 360 turn, around a freakin bus that was going in the right lane. and stopped in the middle of the express way...looking at the opposite direction



I was unharmed, unscathed and terrified.



people stopped and tried to see if i was ok...they congratulated me on my effort, but Illl be honest with you..I didnt know what I was doing.



I just remember praying like anything during the split seconds the car was skidding..never prayed like that in my life. ever



----

2 months later I found out my brothers friend (who has the same car) took a turn too fast, hit a light pole and was in a coma....when he woke up..he couldnt talk, or walk ..

---

moral of the lesson: dont hesitate to beg for it when you need to. and dont buy small european cars ^^ unless youre a jedi or something

He will answer with Yes, No or Wait.



If you see sparrows exploding 10 ft in front of you, when you are driving at speed down the highway, you will know the answer was yes.



If a sparrow hits your chest and knocks you off the bike, winded and covered in bird blood and feathers, (happened to me) you will know the answer is no.



If you still want a force field after recovering and buying a new bike, you might be able to convince yourself the answer was wait.

It is called a Faith Shield, not a force field. As you are hurtling through the air, heading for a tree that will surely snap your spine, you need to scream "Oh my God I don't want to die please grant me a Faith Shield so that I may live". If you can get all that out three times without stuttering, God will intercede.

no im sorry, but I dont think he would help u out with that, when their are more important prayers to be answered, but you can pray every time you ride and it will help, just don go 200, its not smart!! You dont want to be in the front page news do u? just tell people u go 200 but dont.

God answers prayers but he doesnt grant them.he's not going to grant you one becuz think about it, he's not a jenie! don't think that your going to get a "force field" becuz u pray for what you wanted. that sounds selfish. you should just pray for other things or people other then yourself if your serious about God answering your prayers and start doin right. he does forgive and don't be afraid. he'll always be there for you to talk to.

What do you think holds atoms together?



But if you want a really big one, you might want to talk to Scotty or Geordi.

You can pray for a force field all you want. But you won't get one.

Ask God every day to increase your faith. Also ask for protection in the name of Jesus. Very powerful.

IF YOU ARE NOT SUPPOSED TO DIE, THEN YOU WILL NOT, NO MATTER WHAT HAPPENS. WE ONLY GO WHEN ITS CHARTED THAT WE GO. EVEN THOUGH WE ALL HAVE EARLY CHECK OUT POINTS, IN WHICH WE CAN CHOOSE TO LEAVE OR STAY. WHICH IS WHERE NEAR DEATH EXP. COMES FROM.
2008-02-27 10:55:31 UTC
sure, why not ask for a force field and ride naked. Can you feel the wind? woooooo...

he can't even manage to solve world hunger or invent a car that runs on soda. i wouldn't trust him with that.

ITs already there. Go jump off a tall building you'll be just fine
2008-02-27 10:57:35 UTC
You're better off praying to Optimus Prime for that, man.
2008-02-27 10:55:53 UTC
Yes, He will grant it.



But not to you.



Force fields are only granted to drunk drivers - so they can walk away uninjured while everyone else involved is killed horribly.



Why?



God works in mysterious ways. Don't question Him.

Well... He/She gave you a "brain field" first if you don't break that... lol
2008-02-27 10:55:21 UTC
Never hurts to ask. If you don't get it, that means the answer is no.
