I have come to the realization that many of us only pray when we have major crisis in or lives. Most of us are guilty of not taking time out to say thank you lord. At times I am guilty of not making time to pray. what I would like to know is how often should we pray, How should we pray, should we read from the bible, or should me simply talk to God from the heart. should we kneel and pray, or should we stand and pray. I welcome discussion from people of different religion.

How often should we pray??.. I think it depends on how much we really want to know God. Because the purpose of praying is not to become good but to know GOd. A lot of people pray 3 times a day but they are not changed, they still live a sinful life. It is because they dont really know why they pray. So I say, it depends on how much you want to know God, if you want to really really know Him then pray as often as you can but if you dont better not pray at all. Because it is in knowing God that you change and not just by merely praying.

We should pray at least 3 times a week. It's not like i do this but i'm just saying, we should be doing this. This should be a representation that we really love GOD.

Hi! I am a Christian and we value prayers a lot because prayer is a way of communicating to God. I pray as many as I can because I love doing it.. It is not literally praying with closed eyes in quiet place, etc... but praying while travelling, before working, or generally asking for guidance. Prayers should not be long... it can be a minute or less as long as you do it because you love to do it and you have Faith that God listen's to it. For me, prayer is proven powerful and we can pray anytime that we feel praying.

The Power of Prayer - In God We Trust
Although I was not this way, I have to say that I am when that Thank you God is the first thing that comes out of my mouth anytime, any thing good and or escapes of harm. I also pray each night when I go to sleep and anytime I am dealing with anything I must face during the day. I have learned that I am truly blessed and recognized, that without the Lord my mind I truly would not be standing today.
