worship Prayer is converse with God ;
the intercourse of the soul with God ,
not in contemplation or meditation ,
but in direct address to him .
Prayer may be oral or mental ,
occasional or constant ,
ejaculatory or formal .
It is a "
beseeching the Lord " (
Ex .
32 :
11 ); "
pouring out the soul before the Lord " (
1 Sam .
1 :
15 );
"
praying and crying to heaven " (
2 Chr .
32 :
20 ); "
seeking unto God and making supplication " (
Job 8 :
5 ); "
drawing near to God " (
Ps .
73 :
28 ); "
bowing the knees " (
Eph .
3 :
14 ).
Prayer presupposes a belief in the personality of God ,
his ability and willingness to hold intercourse with us ,
his personal control of all things and of all his creatures and all their actions .
Acceptable prayer must be sincere (
Heb .
10 :
22 ),
offered with reverence and godly fear ,
with a humble sense of our own insignificance as creatures and of our own unworthiness as sinners ,
with earnest importunity ,
and with unhesitating submission to the divine will .
Prayer must also be offered in the faith that God is ,
and is the hearer and answerer of prayer ,
and that he will fulfil his word , "
Ask ,
and ye shall receive "
(
Matt .
7 :
7 ,
8 ;
21 :
22 ;
Mark 11 :
24 ;
John 14 :
13 ,
14 ),
and in the name of Christ (
16 :
23 ,
24 ;
15 :
16 ;
Eph .
2 :
18 ;
5 :
20 ;
Col .
3 :
17 ;
1 Pet .
2 :
5 ).
Prayer is of different kinds ,
secret (
Matt .
6 :
6 );
social ,
as family prayers ,
and in social worship ;
and public ,
in the service of the sanctuary .
Intercessory prayer is enjoined (
Num .
6 :
23 ;
Job 42 :
8 ;
Isa .
62 :
6 ;
Ps .
122 :
6 ;
1 Tim .
2 :
1 ;
James 5 :
14 ),
and there are many instances on record of answers having been given to such prayers ,
e .
g .,
of Abraham (
Gen .
17 :
18 ,
20 ;
18 :
23 -
32 ;
20 :
7 ,
17 ,
18 ),
of Moses for Pharaoh (
Ex .
8 :
12 ,
13 ,
30 ,
31 ;
Ex .
9 :
33 ),
for the Israelites (
Ex .
17 :
11 ,
13 ;
32 :
11 -
14 ,
31 -
34 ;
Num .
21 :
7 ,
8 ;
Deut .
9 :
18 ,
19 ,
25 ),
for Miriam (
Num .
12 :
13 ),
for Aaron (
Deut .
9 :
20 ),
of Samuel (
1 Sam .
7 :
5 -
12 ),
of Solomon (
1 Kings 8 ;
2 Chr .
6 ),
Elijah (
1 Kings 17 :
20 -
23 ),
Elisha (
2 Kings 4 :
33 -
36 ),
Isaiah (
2 Kings 19 ),
Jeremiah (
42 :
2 -
10 ),
Peter (
Acts 9 :
40 ),
the church (
12 :
5 -
12 ),
Paul (
28 :
8 ).
No rules are anywhere in Scripture laid down for the manner of prayer or the attitude to be assumed by the suppliant .
There is mention made of kneeling in prayer (
1 Kings 8 :
54 ;
2 Chr .
6 :
13 ;
Ps .
95 :
6 ;
Isa .
45 :
23 ;
Luke 22 :
41 ;
Acts 7 :
60 ;
9 :
40 ;
Eph .
3 :
14 ,
etc .);
of bowing and falling prostrate (
Gen .
24 :
26 ,
52 ;
Ex .
4 :
31 ;
12 :
27 ;
Matt .
26 :
39 ;
Mark 14 :
35 ,
etc .);
of spreading out the hands (
1 Kings 8 :
22 ,
38 ,
54 ;
Ps .
28 :
2 ;
63 :
4 ;
88 :
9 ;
1 Tim .
2 :
8 ,
etc .);
and of standing (
1 Sam .
1 :
26 ;
1 Kings 8 :
14 ,
55 ;
2 Chr .
20 :
9 ;
Mark 11 :
25 ;
Luke 18 :
11 ,
13 ).
If we except the "
Lord '
s Prayer " (
Matt .
6 :
9 -
13 ),
which is ,
however ,
rather a model or pattern of prayer than a set prayer to be offered up ,
we have no special form of prayer for general use given us in Scripture .
Prayer is frequently enjoined in Scripture (
Ex .
22 :
23 ,
27 ;
1 Kings 3 :
5 ;
2 Chr .
7 :
14 ;
Ps .
37 :
4 ;
Isa .
55 :
6 ;
Joel 2 :
32 ;
Ezek .
36 :
37 ,
etc .),
and we have very many testimonies that it has been answered (
Ps .
3 :
4 ;
4 :
1 ;
6 :
8 ;
18 :
6 ;
28 :
6 ;
30 :
2 ;
34 :
4 ;
118 :
5 ;
James 5 :
16 -
18 ,
etc .).
"
Abraham '
s servant prayed to God ,
and God directed him to the person who should be wife to his master '
s son and heir (
Gen .
24 :
10 -
20 ).
"
Jacob prayed to God ,
and God inclined the heart of his irritated brother ,
so that they met in peace and friendship (
Gen .

24 -
30 ;
33 :
1 -
4 ).
"
Samson prayed to God ,
and God showed him a well where he quenched his burning thirst ,
and so lived to judge Israel (

and God opened the prison doors and set Peter at liberty ,

"
Paul prayed that the thorn in the flesh might be removed ,
and his prayer brought a large increase of spiritual strength ,
while the thorn perhaps remained (
2 Cor .
12 :
7 -
10 ).
"
Prayer is like the dove that Noah sent forth ,
which blessed him not only when it returned with an olive -
leaf in its mouth ,
but when it never returned at all .",
Robinson '
s Job .
