Prayer is an interaction with God, Jesus gave out a template on how prayers are to be made, this is called the Lord's prayer.
The following are some of the principles of prayer.

1. Prayer is to be addressed to the Father. Not that we cannot pray to Jesus, or address the holy Spirit but however it is not ideal, this is because there are roles and positions in the Trinity. The father is the primary source and father of us all including Jesus. Therefore prayers should be addressed to God the father not Jesus.

2 God should be addressed with absolute reverence and honor, our whole attention should be focused on the prayer, our language should be one of maximum honor and respect.

3. Our prayers should be kingdom centered not self centered to gratify our flesh remember he is the father of all spirits.

4. What we ask should be according to his will, not our lust .

5.prayers should be in the name of Jesus for this is our authority and right.

6. Avoid vain repetition, our words should be few.

7. Prayers of warfare of warfare and deliverance should be done in christ authority.

8. Don't demand for the death of any body, that alone can cancel your prayer.

9. Your spirit should be connected with the spirit of God, edify your spirit.

10. Praises and Thanksgiving should fill your heart instead of complaining and murmurings.

11. Ask what you need.

12 when praying listen to what the spirit is saying, after prayer expect what you have asked.

14. Dont tempt God. Like asking God for healing but ignore medical warning or refuse treatment, asking God for good result but you don't read, or knowing something is not right for you but asking God to give you anyway.

15. Some prayers actually need to be back up with fasting, some prayers need to be prayed prophetically, there are prayers we need to pray with other believers, that is why we must listen to the holy spirit ( I am going to write on how the holy spirit speak to us some day).

16. Infact before stating your request examine yourself to see if there is iniquity in you, ask for forgiveness and for the Lord to cleanse you and also you must have forgiven others also.
An unforgiven person cannot hope to get forgiveness but as Christians we forgive because christ has forgiven us.

Some Christians do not believe in asking God for the forgiveness of their sins because the scripture says God has already forgiven us.


While indeed we are forgiven of our sins in christ, however we still need to sanctify ourself and these require that we ask for forgiveness of our sins.

People do not get answers to their prayers because they pray wrongly.

Yeah

Ok

Prayer without genuine real life efforts is fruitless.

So do you always get answers to your prayers?

people don't get answers to prayers cuz there's been no single study that points to prayer being useful. templeton Foundation (a religious group) ran a study and found out prayers are useless

You would have the same success praying to a milk jug as you do praying to god -- the milk jug sometimes answers your prayer the way you want to, sometimes not and sometimes the answer is delayed. See the problem here? If things turn out the way you want them to, you say it was because you prayed. If not, it's because god knows what's best and you didn't pray for the right thing. Or, if it happens 10 years later you say god answered your prayer , it was just delayed. This is nonsense. You would have the exact same effect doing nothing.

Cos it doesn't work.. and who are you praying to by the way?
Do you know how many so called pastors keep praying on a daily yet no single change..

Prayer may relieve a sense of anxiety and stress but no it does not solve problems. A solution to a problem may be coincidental with prayer.. but it certainly is not caused by prayer...

Solution to problems do not come from on high or an imaginary creature..
They are devised by man..if not devised by man.. they are chance events. When we accept that we will not be inclined to put so much pressure on an imaginary creature if there were to be one...

.

Do children have to go through these kinds of hurdles to get things from their parents?
Petty, praise loving imaginary gods can choke on their favors.

Life is not fair to anyone.

Because it's like this

Prayers are merely wishes; some get "answered" some don't.

The reason most people don't get answers to their prayers is simply because life and the world as a test are not structured in that way: most prayer is therefore meaningless - save for the therapeutic effect on the person praying.

This got me laughing. You know all this and you are still here with seun on his forum. Seun please help me Block this guy to reset him mentality

Lets all pretend like we don't know the real reason

Its because they are not giving their first fruit to their G.O

because for men dey look @ booty
for women dey look @ a man's wallet.

Simply because we pray out if emotion and without biblical guidance.
I never for once read about Jesus or the apostles praying "fall down and die" or against their enemies.
They never pray for blessing. We pray about vain things and expect to get answers. God is not vain.
The Lord's prayer is a good guide to how we should pray.

That people don't get answers to their prayers doesn't mean they pray amiss. Let me give you an instance OP.

Sometime ago, I was praying over 3 major points. I'd receive answers to other prayers except these 3. One day, I placed myself on a 7-day fasting and prayer. On the 7th day, I heard the Lord say to me...I've answered your prayer and the proof is in the book of habakuk chapter 2 vs 3. Prior to that time, I had never read that bible passage, let alone cram it. When I opened the bible and read, I was just thanking God. The following year, I saw my requests manifest and with ease

At times, when we pray, God may have answered but we always want an instant result whereas, God's time isn't our time. He makes all things beautiful in His own time, not in our time.

Why not say something logical and stop quoting your fictional book?

The answers to every prayer that gets to get God is subject to His governmental ways. There are moments when God will give you the silent treatment.He did that to Jesus too in His hour of passion.So,I think you're too self- assured as to why some get answers to their prayers and why others belabour in their supplications.

I want some to pls be an answer to my prayers now pls.

Anti-Christ!

Slide off religious extremist brainwashed by an imaginary creature and his annointed clown...no logical point to prove that your imaginary creature exist..

Asking what cannot be be done at that time!

You need to pray to God for you need and not what you want!
