There are a variety of prayer formulas that are helpful for people who want to learn to pray. One is the four steps of prayer that I learned a long time ago and it works well for almost any prayer concern.
1. Praise God - Recognize in your mind and heart who you are praying to.
2. Thank God - Have an attitude of gratitude even in your most dire need.
3. Ask God - Request what you need and even what you desire.
4. Listen for God - A quiet time of meditation listening for God before you say amen and close the prayer it vital.
Some people who say that God never answers their prayer never take the time to listen and they miss the answers they are looking for.
May your have a rich prayer life in Praise, Thanksgiving, Asking and Listening.
