I once used to converse with a lovely Christian old man over the internet. We became friends and I helped him, prayed for each other. I found out later he was a witch and his prayers were spells. This is why I say we just can't know who is behind the keyboard. Even a typed out prayer can be a prayer for one person and a spell for another.

Interesting situation you found yourself in.
I remember whole meetings where we prayed like casting spells. For example among many, in praying for a sister whose husband wasn't a believer, we all prayed things like, "Lord wreck his life." And another would pray, "Lord wreck his business." And everyone would shout "amen," and continue casting spells.
And the spells worked. His life and business were wrecked. He came into the local church.
Then that local church was eventually wrecked, and no longer exists.
So the last thing I would ever want is a local churcher praying for me.
