Prayer is defined as A reverent petition made to God, An act of communion with God: such as in devotion, confession, praise, or thanksgiving.That is what the dictionary.com says. MY definition of prayer is communicating with God to give him thanks, praise, or ask him for needs in your life, or to just chat about things in your life.There are two structures that i was taught when i was little.
A.C.T.S- Adoration- First you praise him for the good things in your life. This is your time to basically worship him.
Confession- You confess anything u need to confess to him
Thanksgiving- You thank him for things on your life
S- i think this one is suplement or supplicate.. i cant remember.. and i dont know what either means lol
Another word thing like this (Karyn? name? do you know?words that represent something ) is P.A.R.T.S of prayer
Praise
Adoration
R- i think this is rejoice i cant remember
Thanksgiving

Matthew 6:5 "And when you pray, do not be like the hypocrites, for they love to pray standing in the synagogues and on the street corners to be seen by men. I tell you the truth, they have received their reward in full. But when you pray, go into your room, close the door and pray to your Father, who is unseen. Then your Father, who sees what is done
Matthew 21: 21-22 Jesus replied, "I tell you the truth, if you have faith and do not doubt, not only can you do what was done to the fig tree, but also you can say to this mountain, 'Go, throw yourself into the sea,' and it will be done. If you believe, you will receive whatever you ask for in prayer.
"Romans 12:12 Be joyful in hope, patient in affliction, faithful in prayer.
James 5:13-20 Is any one of you in trouble? He should pray. Is anyone happy? Let him sing songs of praise. Is any one of you sick? He should call the elders of the church to pray over him and anoint him with oil in the name of the Lord. And the prayer offered in faith will make the sick person well
