If your a Christian is it worth praying?

What does it mean to pray to god? If god existed his attributes include omniscience and timelessness. If god lives in a timeless realm he will not hear prayers as he has no internal processes because he is in stasis. He will know what is going to happen and has already set the universe up to decide all our fates in advance. He cannot act as he is immatrial and cannot enter a material universe. As if to prove the point all double blind trials into prayer has demonstrated that it has no effect ie it is unsuccessful.

The only way to rationalise all of this is to assume there is no god to pray too.
