I used to laugh when someone, in movies, would start eating then realize that everyone else is getting ready to pray until I realized that i'm that person.
We've started asking our severs if they have prayer requests. They have always been really happy. One announced to the entire staff in the back that she was getting prayed for for the first time in 19 years serving...It's been really special. You should try it 😉
I know he was being funny and I had a good laugh but seriously I pray before I eat anything because I am thankful for it all, even if it is an appetizer 😁
I pray before I eat anything. Last week I stopped in the middle of a sidewalk and bent my head to pray for my chocolate bar 😄a man came over and offered me water. I think he thought I was sick.
I feel like you forgot to mention that if the person who cooked the food is sitting at the table ALWAYS “bless the hands that prepared it”. Avoid offending said person. Especially if it’s your mother in law.
I look at it this way: I'm the house cook (at least the primary one), and I rather enjoy expressing my gratitude to God when someone else does the preparing. Seriously- for the times someone else cooks, I'm grateful. Also, with chronic pain- I enjoy cooking, but if someone else worked their back on the food, I want it known that I'm grateful.
Shouldn’t that be done BEFORE the person begins cooking? You want their hands to be blessed beforehand so that the food being cooked will automatically be blessed while it’s being prepared.
Haha love this! A good tip though: Offer to pray for the waiter/waitress at some point in the meal/when the food comes. My friend led someone to Christ just last week by simply offering to pray for the server, which resulted in a longer conversation where he shared the gospel with him. The server teared up, and said that no one had ever offered to pray for him before. Praise God!
Oh man as a pastor I can’t tell you how many times when it is time to pray everyone looks to me. I am going to say over 95% of the time. Would somebody else offer to pray once in a while? Sheesh!
As much as I appreciate this guide, I'm still having some difficulty executing my prayer in practice. Do I pray for the drive through meal, even if I'm never getting out to eat it? Hotel breakfast? A bowl of cereal vs a piece of toast? What about my protein shakes? I think this needs a part 2.
Mind blown...... I feel ashamed to admit I have NEVER said grace in a buffet setting. The Hotel breakfast made me realize it. Where is that whip you use on yourself??
Aaaaand structured it like policies and procedures in an office or business. Plus it felt like a PowerPoint presentation, mixed with a Rachel Ray cooking show. "Exactly 3 fries eaten, so no prayers required." 😂🤣
When our youngest son is sick of waiting for us to get to the table and starts eating before we pray, I say, "He wanted to know just how thankful he was for the food before he thanked God for it." :P
HILARIOUS! I'm seeing this on the night before Thanksgiving 2019, already stressing out about the family meal tomorrow. This couldn't have come at a better time, it's like God directed me here! Happy Thanksgiving!
When I was a server I did not mind waiting for someone to finish the prayer; however, I was awestruck when they asked why their food was cold. I do not know maybe giving a sermon long prayer to impress your friends might have something to do with it.
Doing exactly the opposite of what the Bible says. Jesus told the disciples to pray in private instead of in front of other people in order to prevent praying like the pharisees did, doing it to impress the people around them. His point was to pray from the heart rather than pray to show off. God opposes the proud and favors the humble.
I never bless the food, but I try to *always* thank the Provider. 😊 Gratefulness flows for every blessing He gives me. Many times in history God was angry with those who weren’t grateful to Him. 💜💜 so many go without good food and water so I always try to be grateful and not take it for granted.
When I was in college, it was customary for me and my friends to pray with our eyes open, or to cover our food (like fries) with our hands. We called that the “shepherd’s prayer.” Otherwise, someone would steal something off our plate when “every head was bowed, and every eye closed.”
Lol! My boyfriend and I always pray when we eat together, and when we get food before our main course, we pray for that, but when our main dish comes out, we're like, ...do we pray again? Lol we always thank God for our food, this time of fellowship, and prayers for safe travels home :) And we takes turns praying AND paying. Oh snap! ;)
I didn't know you were struggling and I'm so proud of you ❤️. Your such a gem in this world and please don't judge yourself so harshly! I'm sure you know this but the Bible says our heart is evil and desperately wicked who can know it? God tells us "the whole head is sick". We are all walking around, standing in the need of prayer!!! I will be praying for you, because I know you are a treasure, and Satan wants you to be down and he definitely wants you to sit down and be quiet. "We fight not against flesh and blood but against principalities and powers, against rulers of the dark. Against wickedness in high places!". Psalm 34 is so healing remind yourself that God is there with you, loving you more than anything and wants you to know that all those things Satan wants you to think about are lies!!! Remember, whatsoever things are right are just are lovely, are of a good report - think on those things ❤️❤️❤️❤️ We love you, John ❤️. Remember? Your the one with your head on Jesus shoulder;. Your the disciple that Jesus loves🥰🙏🙏🙏
This video is by far the most important one he's done. You do know that if you get this wrong, you might choke. My mom always told me you needed to pray before you ate or you would die gagging.
You forgot the in prayer requirements. The prayer must make a reference to the food, such as "Please bless this food to our bodies." or "Thank you for this food." The prayer must also make a reference to the day. "Thank for this day" and "This is the day you have made" are acceptable.
Right? You also gotta bless the animals that made the food possible. "Father, bless these eggs father, bless the chicken, who laid these eggs father." *definitely not a reference to anything*
I’m the one who pray over everything 😂Dear Lord, please bless this food...because I’m not sure how clean these people are. In Jesus most precious name..AMEN!😂😂😂
I love this hahaha , love the jokes behind your videos! But just remember guys, it doesn’t matter if you have a salad in front of you or a 3 course meal, pray all the time, there are a lot of people wishing they had your salad. Keep it up ! Blessings from the U.K ! 🇬🇧😊
Just depends on how hungry you are. Not so hungry...make up for any missed prayer time that week, very hungry...one sentence "Thank You, Jesus. Amen." Will get the job done. Also, always remember, if you are very hungry make sure to be the one that prayers just in case others that aren't so hungry don't have the opportunity to go with the first option. 😜
Bree Casillas if ur a BAPTICOGISTOLIC & the family goes to Roscoes Chicken & Waffles BYH ( BLESS UR HEART ) CAUSE ITS GONNA B A SERMON ON THE MOUNT...If it's smaller than salad , God knows that thine is glad...if it's in the desert section it might need resurrection ( anything southern baptist i.e. any cobbler is GONNA NEED TO BE LIFTED TO THE HIGHEST HOSANNA , pound cake no need to bless , LIFT THE PIES ON HIGH )
No matter what situation you’re in, PLEASE don’t be that guy that takes a century to pray. We do intend to eat the blessed food. Only short or shorter-medium prayers are acceptable.
Somewhere deep down, I think even Jesus himself would giggle at this..LOL thanks so much for sharing I was having a stressful day until I saw this! It turned my day around thank u! God bless!
He could include what they were really thinking too. For example, they say amen, but they're actually hoping the sermon ends soon so they can go home and watch the game. Someone else would be thinking, "I wish (name of person) were here! He/she really needs to hear this message and repent of (whatever the problem is)!"
To elaborate. If you are in youth group and somebody throws a anyone wanna pray at a potluck, TAKE IT. Instant brownie points. My personal favorite prayer. Dear God our father in heaven, I just want to thank you for this wonderful food, bless it to our bodies, and bless the hands of those who prepared it. AAMENN AND PLEASE DONT BE THAT PERSON THAT TAKES FOREVER TO PRAY FOR THE FOOD.
I'll always remember the evening a Pastor came to me and asked me to pray over the dinner - and I had to remind him a man already had done that, in the closing prayer of the service after his sermon.
Dude! I listened to this like a Bible College Required course. I was so into it & intensely listening. OMG! I am so churched! You are an Angel of laughter & I love you! Keep being used...OMG😂😂😂so churched! Lol
My church youth group showed me and my other fellows this video, they told me his name and everything and that’s how I subbed here. LOVE THIS CHANNEL AND THIS MAN 😂
When we eat dinner as a family on Sundays or out at restaurants, I’m the one who has to pray over the food because I’m the youngest at the table-I’m 15 years old; guess I better show this to my family; they’re really breaking the rules! 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂 Nice video 👍🏾
you're like the Sunday funnies, much more colorful then Mom-Sat with an Xtra dose of humor. you know, the kind you find yourself re-reading on a Wednesday or Thursday night jus to get thru the week on a high note :)
Whenever I get an XL coffee mocha with a shot of espresso and whip cream from Tim Horton's... I ask God to purify and bless my drink. Because who knows what's really in there!
I'm Muslim. And I love this guy so much!!! Some people in the comments are like "this is a joke" and others are adding on to his stuff. I'm actually curious if anyone wants to let me know. I know Christians will pray before a meal in like a traditional setting with the whole family (obv depending on beliefs and stuff) but I had no idea that people thanked specific food items? Muslims have a quick little Arabic prayer translating to "In the name of God, the Gracious the Merciful" or "In the name of God, and with His Blessings" before we start and a little one liner prayer after we end it. We never concentrate on praying to God before a meal. If anyone actually wants to let me know exactly how much is John exaggerating, I'd appreciate it. Love this guy though, thoroughly enjoyed this one.
I hate when I've taken a sneaky bite of my fries before the prayer and my family looks at me like I have broken ALL 10 COMMANDMENTS. Next time, I'll show them this vid. lol No where does it say "Thou shall not eat fries before they are blessed" haha
This came up at dinner last night. Was so hard to decide who the most spiritual person was. Had to review these rules to determine it. Also: Because of this video, I had to pray the last time I was out with girlfriends, as it was determined that I was the most spiritual simply by association with my very prophetic husband 🙄. Thanksalot John.
I was at my friend's house, and my friend came to the table after the prayer. Her mom told her she could go ahead and eat, that the meal had already been blessed. I thought that was weird because I thought she should still thank God for the food. Maybe the mom could have just prayed for the food in the grocery store. It would have saved the entire family from having to spend time praying at the table. LOL
I thought he would say that if the fast food is from chick-fil-a no prayer is requested because it's already blessed 😂
Bibi Arhin
Lol~That is a great one😁😉:)
Pre blessed!!
Brilliant!
I thought the same thing tooooo
DOUBLE PRE-BLESSED
"up to three fries prior to the prayer" lol. I knew I wasnt the only guy sneaking in fries before the blessing!
Hahah I think that its a tradition to do that😂😂😂
You could always just buy some 'Pre-Blessed Food'. I reckon that'd save a lot of lives.
Caleb Campion are you referring to that old Julian Smith video?!? That’s hilarious too!
Hahaha you got it :)
Caleb Campion my friend, I think you just struck gold
Caleb Campion YES haha, great stuff. Also can’t forget Jellyfish and Hot Kool Aid.....
Lol I thought of the old Julian smith video when I saw the title of this video 😂
Am I the only one who digs right in.......Then someone says "We should pray" when you got a mouthful of food looking like a Chipmunk??
I hope not :-P
Steven W That's my brother 😂
Steven W What I like to say is that it doesn't matter when you pray, it's just easier to remember at the beginning
That me man and my mum always,always gives me that look.
I used to laugh when someone, in movies, would start eating then realize that everyone else is getting ready to pray until I realized that i'm that person.
Nope, that's me and half my family. 🤣
We've started asking our severs if they have prayer requests. They have always been really happy. One announced to the entire staff in the back that she was getting prayed for for the first time in 19 years serving...It's been really special. You should try it 😉
❤
Love this!
Felicia Follum great tips!
Yooo that’s a good idea!!!
That’s amazing! Im going to try it!
U should pray and glorify God eveything u have and say thank you God.
I have never heard god saying your welcome
@@ethanweisberger2122 He said it by letting you not choke on your food
@@ethanweisberger2122 he says it by your single existence
Amen sister!
I know he was being funny and I had a good laugh but seriously I pray before I eat anything because I am thankful for it all, even if it is an appetizer 😁
If it requires dressing it doesn't require a blessing 😂😂😂
Zoe M that is now my senior quote
I had to pause the video, oh my
If it comes in a cup no need to lift up
If it's in a cup, no need to lift it up!! Hilarious! 🤣
@Jason Shoots John Crist...leading the flock astray!! 🤣😄😂
I pray before I eat anything. Last week I stopped in the middle of a sidewalk and bent my head to pray for my chocolate bar 😄a man came over and offered me water. I think he thought I was sick.
big mood
Take it. Free water.
I feel like you forgot to mention that if the person who cooked the food is sitting at the table ALWAYS “bless the hands that prepared it”. Avoid offending said person. Especially if it’s your mother in law.
YES! Bless those hands!!!

Seriously- for the times someone else cooks, I'm grateful. Also, with chronic pain- I enjoy cooking, but if someone else worked their back on the food, I want it known that I'm grateful.
Well that's just common sense if you do not like spit in your food
Good point to be noted ...
Shouldn’t that be done BEFORE the person begins cooking? You want their hands to be blessed beforehand so that the food being cooked will automatically be blessed while it’s being prepared.
What's extra funny about this is the end because my dad is a pastor and he's always expected to pray because people view it as his job. 🤣🤣🤣🤣
Haha love this! A good tip though: Offer to pray for the waiter/waitress at some point in the meal/when the food comes. My friend led someone to Christ just last week by simply offering to pray for the server, which resulted in a longer conversation where he shared the gospel with him.

Ross Bradley Yeh! Who`s heart is ready? Can't tell by looking. COL. (Cry out loud). Praise God!
Ross Bradley that's beautiful ❤👍
Ross Bradley Praise God!
Christians prey on everyone they meet.
lol dork
I pray for anything God gives me. Cause somewhere in this world someone doesn’t have what I have been blessed to have
Love your live show John. Someone get this man a Netflix special!
John Nozzi I did too!!! And let’s email Netflix 😂
He's too good for Netflix. Maybe Pure Flix instead.
No! Email PureFlix. John should be on their show cleanest Jokes. John is more funny then those people they had on their show.
IKR?!?
Do both?
My brother told me to watch this... I pray for EVERYTHING!
Oh man as a pastor I can’t tell you how many times when it is time to pray everyone looks to me. I am going to say over 95% of the time. Would somebody else offer to pray once in a while? Sheesh!
DELEGATE!
They're all too sinful when there's a pastor boi at the table XD
Chris Estay everybody knows that a degree in seminary will get you a place in the express line to God.
Hey Chris! I understand your frustration dude. But maybe re-think it...you GET to pray.
Pamela Graham :::I think it was just a joke:::
As much as I appreciate this guide, I'm still having some difficulty executing my prayer in practice.
Do I pray for the drive through meal, even if I'm never getting out to eat it?
Hotel breakfast?
A bowl of cereal vs a piece of toast?
What about my protein shakes?
I think this needs a part 2.
Mind blown......
I feel ashamed to admit I have NEVER said grace in a buffet setting. The Hotel breakfast made me realize it. Where is that whip you use on yourself??
I love his hidden jokes in this. He makes fun of people groups without even directly addressing them. Super funny
JC W OMGOODNESS YES
Can you point them out to me? I think I missed like all of them
Brandon Have u watched his stand-up? Just let it go dude...aint nobody got time for that.
Aaaaand structured it like policies and procedures in an office or business. Plus it felt like a PowerPoint presentation, mixed with a Rachel Ray cooking show. "Exactly 3 fries eaten, so no prayers required." 😂🤣
Dr Sr okay, buddy
When our youngest son is sick of waiting for us to get to the table and starts eating before we pray, I say, "He wanted to know just how thankful he was for the food before he thanked God for it." :P
Ah, but what happens when multiple pastors are out to lunch? 🤔🤣
Easy. The most senior pastor either blesses or reserves the right to delegate to another pastor. It’s an unwritten unspoken law ;)
The one with the biggest congregation.
Joshua Verwers the oldest one prays since he's known god the longest
The one sitting at the end of the table, or the one who got there the latest.
Joshua Verwers an explosion occurs
HILARIOUS! I'm seeing this on the night before Thanksgiving 2019, already stressing out about the family meal tomorrow. This couldn't have come at a better time, it's like God directed me here! Happy Thanksgiving!
"I don't know ask the pastor, he works for you!" 😂😂
"If it comes in a cup, no need to look up"😂😂
It takes years to sort this stuff out. This is a public service.
The most spiritual person prays cause that prayer is going to be the most powerful! Amen🙌🏽😂🙏🏽💯💙😏 this is so good, it golden✨

Megan Collier exactly what the bible tells us. Not to do things to be seen

His point was to pray from the heart rather than pray to show off. God opposes the proud and favors the humble.
"Shoot, even a volunteer youth Pastor. That prayer is going to be less effective but it's still going to qualify." LOL!!!
If it’s a slider, don’t pray to your provider 😁
Megan Lincicome nice!
If it's smaller than chicken ain't not a need to quicken
I don’t know, I think if you’re having sliders you might want to...so you don’t have a problem later...I’m lookin at you White Castle...

Love the comment, love your name even more lol
That happened in high school. We had an end of year meal in grade 8 domestic science class. After the prayer, all the protein on my plate was gone!
I laughed way too hard at this 😂
That'd just RONG!!!!!
Lol! My boyfriend and I always pray when we eat together, and when we get food before our main course, we pray for that, but when our main dish comes out, we're like, ...do we pray again?

This video is by far the most important one he's done. You do know that if you get this wrong, you might choke. My mom always told me you needed to pray before you ate or you would die gagging.
You forgot the in prayer requirements. The prayer must make a reference to the food, such as "Please bless this food to our bodies." or "Thank you for this food." The prayer must also make a reference to the day. "Thank for this day" and "This is the day you have made" are acceptable.
BlendedSpider it is also standard protocol to bless hands that made it. Even the little ones that probably stuck their hands in the punch.
That one depends on the denomination.
ConstantCompanion Why are we only to ask Him to bless the hands?
Benjamin P. Ellis very good point. 🤔
Right? You also gotta bless the animals that made the food possible. "Father, bless these eggs father, bless the chicken, who laid these eggs father." *definitely not a reference to anything*
Lol, I love this! I literally chocked and cried....😂 “different policy on fries.” Lol
I don't know, ask the pastor, he works for You!! 😂

This is hysterical... how about always trying to be thankful and grateful, no matter what.
What about how LONG to pray for??? That always throws me off
Bree Casillas well it depends...are you a penticostel coz the answer is exponential 😉
If you're a Baptist, you gotta be short and sweet. Can't let the food get cold!
Just depends on how hungry you are. Not so hungry...make up for any missed prayer time that week, very hungry...one sentence "Thank You, Jesus. Amen." Will get the job done. Also, always remember, if you are very hungry make sure to be the one that prayers just in case others that aren't so hungry don't have the opportunity to go with the first option. 😜

Can you please do a video about responses from the congregation during a sermon? (Ex: mmmmm, amen, that’s good, that’s God word, etc )
I heard a pastor answer one once he said c'mon and the pastor said I'm coming!!!
"Glory!" Hahaha and "The Devil is a liar"
@@chriswhut9316 lol I'm weak
He could include what they were really thinking too. For example, they say amen, but they're actually hoping the sermon ends soon so they can go home and watch the game. Someone else would be thinking, "I wish (name of person) were here! He/she really needs to hear this message and repent of (whatever the problem is)!"
Holding hands before praying for food just increases the risk that you'll need to pray for the sick later on...
Unless you've all washed up .....but yeah, I think holding hands is weird anyway
My thoughts exactly!😂
You nasty folks don't wash your hands before eating?
Bring hand sanitizer ?
This comment aged well.
Way too excited to watch this before bed.
This is too funny cause it’s true.
I love this guy!!!
As a Youth Pastor I 100% agree that I get asked to pray over the food in every and any situation 😂
“It’s a glitch in the system” 😂 😂
My family is pre-sip and pre-chip

Thats cute 👍

Dear God our father in heaven, I just want to thank you for this wonderful food, bless it to our bodies, and bless the hands of those who prepared it. AAMENN
AND PLEASE DONT BE THAT PERSON THAT TAKES FOREVER TO PRAY FOR THE FOOD.
Also as a young christian lady, I can vow that if a guy in my age range offers to pray. ALL THE GIRLS WANNA COURT.
Lol true, I'm that person who takes a long time lol, because I get off subject and start talking about my own problems! Lol
Tierra Richardson That's epic! I once knew someone who would pray for all of the church members by name. It was a nightmare! 😂
Why just bless the hands??????
leepergrace my favorite blessing is, Blessed be He through Whose Bounty we eat and through Whose everlasting Goodness we live.
I'll always remember the evening a Pastor came to me and asked me to pray over the dinner - and I had to remind him a man already had done that, in the closing prayer of the service after his sermon.
"If it requires dressing, it doesn't require a blessing"😂😂😂
First of all tinder? Christian mingle excuse you
I need to show this at youth next sunday! We're always talking about who's gonna lead the before dinner prayer - now we have set rules!

We should always be grateful in prayer for everything God gives us to put in our mouth especially if we look at the ones that have nothing amen

One time my friend was at a restaurant and the waiter saw them praying and said, “You pray? I pray too.” (It was an Asian restaurant
I'm Muslim. And I love this guy so much!!! Some people in the comments are like "this is a joke" and others are adding on to his stuff.
I'm actually curious if anyone wants to let me know. I know Christians will pray before a meal in like a traditional setting with the whole family (obv depending on beliefs and stuff) but I had no idea that people thanked specific food items?
Muslims have a quick little Arabic prayer translating to "In the name of God, the Gracious the Merciful" or "In the name of God, and with His Blessings" before we start and a little one liner prayer after we end it. We never concentrate on praying to God before a meal. If anyone actually wants to let me know exactly how much is John exaggerating, I'd appreciate it. Love this guy though, thoroughly enjoyed this one.
Finally Someone sets the standard for meal prayer!!
It should be a time limit on holiday pre meal prayers!!
No alter calls during pre meal prayers...please
Oh my...I'm dyin'...I love starting my morning with John's videos. You are hilarious and a blessing.
"If it's in a cup, no need to lift up" LOL
“If it comes in a cup, no need to lift up...” 😂 😂 😂
I hate when I've taken a sneaky bite of my fries before the prayer and my family looks at me like I have broken ALL 10 COMMANDMENTS. Next time, I'll show them this vid. lol No where does it say "Thou shall not eat fries before they are blessed" haha
😂😂😂
Only just discovered crist. Exactly - where have I been. He's utterly brilliant, just hilarious.
"I don't know ask the pastor, he works for you" I'M CRYING
This came up at dinner last night. Was so hard to decide who the most spiritual person was. Had to review these rules to determine it. Also: Because of this video, I had to pray the last time I was out with girlfriends, as it was determined that I was the most spiritual simply by association with my very prophetic husband 🙄. Thanksalot John.
being a pk means you never off the hook. i’ll be sitting there drinking my water, and mid-gulp my dad will tell me to start praying 😂
I was at my friend's house, and my friend came to the table after the prayer. Her mom told her she could go ahead and eat, that the meal had already been blessed. I thought that was weird because I thought she should still thank God for the food. Maybe the mom could have just prayed for the food in the grocery store. It would have saved the entire family from having to spend time praying at the table. LOL
The Christian Blogger is more spiritual than me! 🤣
“Do I pray for coffee? No! Are you a psychopath?” 🤣🤣🤣
This is like the Julian Smith pre-blessed video! Lol!
This was the sooooo funny!!! :) I totally agree with the waiter thing!
God bless.
I am just glad someone finally came up with “Sound Biblical Doctrine” for this topic.
