I read opinions that reality influences itself, according to your prayer..
it should be specific and long...
and then according to the "statistics" they adapt to it ...
(according to the state of your soul, your consciousness, the number of sins or good things you have done and so on)

Where God is doing wrong, you say in your title??? He's perfect. He cannot err.

All of your posts are long and detailed. This works against the message you're attempting to convey. Seriously, does a relationship with God necessitate entire essays containing reams of advice and explanation? It's exhausting just reading them. Have you ever heard the term, "he doth protest too much"? It means the longer and more passionate is your explanation, the more likely it is that the opposite holds true.
You doth protest too much
You doth protest too much

When (If?) God flooded the world, he wiped out all of mankind, except Noah and some selected few. That means there were many innocent people, including children, that were killed. How do you square that? I can not and I will not!
Where was God during the Holocaust? Just a spectator? Innocent people were murdered.
Some 'wise' people say he answers every prayer....and many times the answer is 'No.'
Remember that the next time a precious, innocent child is murdered or dies due to a terrible malady.
I will never claim to have all the answers, in fact, I have few.....but I have a long list of unanswered questions that no person wearing a robe or white collar, or cross around their neck, have been able to answer. I hope to be given the opportunity one day to ask the almighty my list of questions and listen to the answers.

@JSul3 I wonder what excuses it would come up with.

It's more complicated than that.
When you pray for something, that's "magic thinking". It's you trying to influence the world around to do your bidding. Believers and non-believers do these invitations on daily basis.
If you just say praises and gratitude to God, that is keeping your ego in check therefore cultivating humility. Your counselor or therapist can help with that.
At the end of the day, is God really involved? Is God really there?
