Prayer is merely asking his will be done through you, opening yourself as a vessel to the divine

Thats why scripture says don't pray like the gentiles, pray using the lords prayer

Asking god for things in prayer will get you nowhere, asking to be gods vessel and that his will be done through you is the intention

GOD granting your specific needs is a miracle



of course this is just my interpretation

That's pretty good. And it's don't pray like the hypocrites.

Intercessory prayer is very necessary too, praying for someone else.

Matthew 6:5


“And when you pray, you shall not be like the hypocrites. For they love to pray standing in the synagogues and on the corners of the streets, that they may be seen by men. Assuredly, I say to you, they have their reward.

 Quoting: Anonymous Coward 78759709


Later in that passage

When you pray, do not babble repetitiously like the Gentiles, because they think that by their many words they will be heard. Do not be like them, for your Father knows what you need before you ask him.

Can we both be right?
