3 Then I turned my face to the Lord God, seeking him by prayer and pleas for mercywith fasting and sackcloth and ashes. 4 I prayed to the Lord my God and made

confession, saying, "O Lord, the great and awesome God, who keeps covenant and

steadfast love with those who love him and keep his commandments, 5 we have

sinned and done wrong and acted wickedly and rebelled, turning aside from your

commandments and rules. Daniel 9:3-5 ESV

Communion with God, usually comprising petition, adoration, praise, confession, andthanksgiving. The ultimate object of prayer in both OT and NT is not merely the good

6 Therefore let everyone who is godlyoffer prayer to you at a time when you may be found;

surely in the rush of great waters,

they shall not reach him.7 You are a hiding place for me;

you preserve me from trouble;

you surround me with shouts of deliverance.

5 "And when you pray, you must not be like the hypocrites. For

they love to stand and pray in the synagogues and at the street

corners, that they may be seen by others. Truly, I say to you, they

have received their reward. 6 But when you pray, go into your

room and shut the door and pray to your Father who is in secret.And your Father who sees in secret will reward you. Matthew 6:5-6 ESV

5 And I said, "O Lord God of heaven, the great and awesome God

who keeps covenant and steadfast love with those who love him

and keep his commandments, 6 let your ear be attentive and your

eyes open, to hear the prayer of your servant that I now pray

before you day and night for the people of Israel your servants,

confessing the sins of the people of Israel, which we have sinned

against you. Nehemiah 1:5-6 ESV

13

Is anyone among you suffering? Let him pray. Is anyone cheerful?Let him sing praise. 14 Is anyone among you sick? Let him call for

the elders of the church, and let them pray over him, anointing him

with oil in the name of the Lord. 15 And the prayer of faith will save

the one who is sick, and the Lord will raise him up. And if he has

committed sins, he will be forgiven. 16 Therefore, confess your sins

to one another and pray for one another, that you may be healed.

The prayer of a righteous person has great power as it is working.17 Elijah was a man with a nature like ours, and he prayed fervently

that it might not rain, and for three years and six months it did notrain on the earth. 18 Then he prayed again, and heaven gave rain,

and the earth bore its fruit. James 5:13-18 ESV

24 Therefore I tell you, whatever you ask in prayer, believe that you have received it, and it

will be yours. 25 And whenever you stand praying, forgive, if you have anything against

anyone, so that your Father also who is in heaven may forgive you your trespasses."Mark 11:24-25 ESV

21 And Jesus answered them, "Truly, I say to you, if you have faith and do not doubt, you

will not only do what has been done to the fig tree, but even if you say to this mountain, 'Be

taken up and thrown into the sea,' it will happen. 22 And whatever you ask in prayer, you will

receive, if you have faith." Matthew 21:21-22 ESV

12 "Truly, truly, I say to you, whoever believes in me will also do the works that I do; and

greater works than these will he do, because I am going to the Father. 13 Whatever you ask in

my name, this I will do, that the Father may be glorified in the Son. 14 If you ask me anything

in my name, I will do it. John 14:12-14 ESV
