Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is in-app purchases: PrayForYou at none against Pray4Me's 10. PrayForYou also leads on ads (none vs shown) and ratings volume (8 vs 1). Pray4Me's advantage is review sentiment (80% vs 50%) and update cadence (every 5 weeks vs every 8 months). On price, device support and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.
