God is moved by faith and faith alone, not by anything physical. Without faith it is impossible to please Him. (Heb. 11:6) Physical formulas are religious practices that take you out of faith and put you back under law. They which be of faith are blessed with faithful Abraham...and the law is not of faith. (Gal 3:9, 12). Religion is loaded with physical rules, traditions of men that make the Word of none effect. (Mark 7:13)
Gal 5:4- Christ is become of no effect unto you, whosoever of you are justified by the law; ye are fallen from grace. KJV
Hos 6:6- For I desired mercy, and not sacrifice; and the knowledge of God more than burnt offerings.
KJV
God wants faith, and His command is to love one another. He desires mercy, or love, more than any physical religious tradition. God hears the prayers that are prayed in faith.
