Most people have no results with praying because they ask God to give them something that is not from God, He doesn't like it. Materialistic and similar things that are from Satan.
This is why God doesn't give them what they ask for. And so they wrongly conclude it doesn't work.
More often than not people pray for money, winning the lottery (gambling sin), having hot sex partners (sin), having big houses, big cars, worldly power positions, the death of other humans etc. These are all from Satan. Of course, God will not assist you in your sinning attempts for a good reason.If you pray for health, better human relationships, higher spiritual advancements. It will work a lot more often than what probability would suggest. Obviously you have to pay for important goals more often with more desire. If you are on the path of sainthood or becoming like Jesus (no sex, no meat, no alcohol, no evil deeds etc), more of your prayers will be met. This is why religious people ask saints to pray for them. Their prayers are almost always successful.All prayers are heard and received. Keep on trying. Change the wording of your prayers. Pray with good intent.Praying for health recovery that stems from glutteny, alcohol, drugs, coffee, sex and other sins by a not so actively religious person with shallow faith in God and Jesus for selfish reasons won't be that effective. But if you fast, you are determined to change your ways, you have strong faith, you pray for the goal 3 times per day, and you want to achieve it for good purposes like becoming healthy again to be able to help others, it will work. Especially when a group of Christians pray for the same thing.Another way of enhancing the effectiveness of your prayers is to offer someghing to God. For example, you promise him that in return for your health recovery, you will advertise Christianity to atheists, posting Christian memes on 4ch. Then you will experience more success.
