Pastor Amanda Says She Refuses to Pray for People Sometimes For THIS Arrogant Reason
Amanda Conner is the Executive ‘Pastor’ of The Gate Church in Oklahoma City, OK. A traveling evangelist who regularly speaks at other churches, her bio explains:
I am a leader to leaders, an encourager to the underdog, a coach to the growing, and a developer of the future. I am privileged to have many doors open to me in many areas of influence. From international travel, local church development, speaking at conferences, coaching and mentoring leaders, empowering men and women, helping establish Kingdom businesses, or strategizing with local churches, God continues to use me in unique and pivotal ways.
…I am a builder by nature, prophetically insightful, and undeniably Spirit-led. I believe for the impossible and desire to usher in the supernatural and it is through this governmental authority in the Kingdom I believe I have been assigned. I rarely take ‘no’ as my final answer and have learned how to war for my generation.
She recently visited Real Life Church West Chcago where she said one of the most arrogant things about prayer we’ve ever heard.
You know what I love about the Lord? He only does it and the timing of his grace. He never introduces you to more breakthrough until he knows you got the capacity and maturity to deal with it. That’s why sometimes I’ve prayed for people and I have literally come to people and looked at them…I have come to people I have said, ‘I cannot pray for you.’
Now, this is so hard, just so you know, because there is nothing about that that feels like a-particularly a speaker who is visiting, that a pastor will be pleased with this statement. But I have said that because if I pray for you, you don’t have the maturity in your life to live in the breakthrough that God will give you through the anointing that’s on my life.
Say what?
And if I pray for you, and see that there’s a deliverance in your life, and you don’t fill it correctly, then I have actually opened you to worse. So I have looked at people before and said, ‘I love you, I will speak to you, I will hold on to you. I will love you in this season. But I refuse to bless a blessing on you because you can’t handle what it means to be blessed yet.’

All I want is the truth! You can’t handle the truth! I think she got her lines from a movie.
“…I am a builder by nature, prophetically insightful, and undeniably Spirit-led. ”
Actually, you are a destroyer by nature, not a prophet, lacking insight and not Spirit led.
There you go – fix your CV for you, at no charge!
Wow. Talk about being prideful.
