1 Timothy 2:8 I will therefore that men pray every where, lifting up holy hands, without wrath and doubting.
Praying is not about words. Pray more leads to purity of our heart and our desire to communicate with God. Despite our good words, though our voices loud but if we keep the jealousy and revenge then surely our prayers are not heard by God. Jesus through the apostle Paul taught us to pray a lot. which is taken up with clean hands and pure hearts who love and irrespective of malice will make our prayers heard and answered. If we always live life in Jesus and Jesus lives in us then it means that our prayer has become a real communication to God.
Now the question is how we learn and know about prayer? Some interpret the prayer as an obligation and habit. Morning waking, before eating, and when going to sleep that night he would pray. Or when he is facing severe problems just so he would pray earnestly. Or also he prayed only for private purposes only ... And indeed he has done in vain. Surely such people like this are far from God.
but God is love. He have a great lover. Although we are far from God but God remains faithful to teach us to pray. Because God does not want us to perish. Remember! Breath of life of the believer is prayer. So if we do not pray then we do not breathe. So eventually we die.
Prayer should Had become a Christian lifestyle in our lives. Not prayer as a customs. Not in the habit or prayer just for our own needs. But prayer is in tune with our lives. Where there is thanksgiving, there are conversations and questions to God. And there was also sounded in the ears of our hearts God's voice. So we are going to happen the earth would become paradise GBU departure
Jesus Bless You :-)
