The so called prayer is all human creation. We have created prayer. There is no other living being on earth which knows to pray. So we humanbeings pray to fulfill all our desires and ambitions and for happiness.We all are wanting only these and dont want to be unhappy.But the truth is that we all have to live and die. The only difference between one human to other is he/she may face different difficulty compared to other depending on her or his fate or karma. So prayers are meant for mental satisfaction that what we desire will come true and to attain different levels of self realization.

people pray to god because they believe that from their prayers, God is watching over them and protecting them...everyone wants to be heard and they believe that God is listening. I do not believe in God, but can understand why people pray, they just need an ear for they problems and desires.

Prayer, on a daily basis, not just when we need something, is one way of showing God that we are faithful and are absolutely sure we believe in him.

hi frnd,
God is the power that we belief as our head, as our mighty,as one who related to us even after our death. he made us on this earth and here we fight with world for our survival, for our rights, for our wishes, for our dreams, and when we see anything little hard we need the help of someone who really can take us to our sucess. and then we think of our lord who sent us in this world. we pray god saying that it is his responsibility to take care of us, so please help us.....

we believe in god, because he is our only hope when entire world comes against us. we pray to god because he is our head.we love god because he fulfills our prayers....

We pray because God wants us to tell him what is on our minds. Even though he sees and understands our situations better than we do, he still wants to hear from us in our own words.

There are five basic types or sorts of prayer.

The first type is the prayer of praise (God may like this one best). We praise God when we tell him how wonderful he is. The simplest way of praising him is in the name we call him: Almighty God; Lord Jesus Christ; Lord of Lords; King of Kings. All these names tell God how glorious he is. Many of the psalms in the Book of Psalms are prayers of praise.

The second type is the prayer of thanksgiving, or telling God, "thank you". We thank God for all the wonderful things he does for us. He gives us life; he gives us food, clothing and shelter; he gives us good people in our lives to help us and to take care of us. The simple prayer of giving thanks for our food is called grace.

The third type is the prayer of confession, telling God that we are sorry for what we have done. We tell God we are sorry either when we have hurt one of the people God has created or when we have done some sort of damage to God's beautiful creation. We tell God what we have done and that we are sorry that we did it.

The fourth type is the prayer of supplication, or asking for help. We ask God to keep us safe, to give us courage in tough times, or to give us the things we need to be strong and healthy. God always wants to hear from us when we are afraid or in trouble and need help.

The fifth type of prayer is the intercessory prayer, where we ask God to care for another person or part of his creation. God indeed cares for other people without our prayer, but we build our Christian community by asking for God's special care for one another. Paul's prayer in Ephesians 3: 14 - 21 is a beautiful prayer for the people of faith. Moses and Abraham asked God to take special care of his people. The Prayer for the Healing of Children is an intercessory prayer.

There are also four styles of prayer, which depend on our own personalities.

The first style is devotional, or scripture-based prayer. Many people like to read a Bible verse or passage that opens a way for them to talk to God. They often begin their prayers by reading a psalm.

The second style is spontaneous prayer. This prayer comes from our hearts almost without thinking, and it is usually a prayer of thanksgiving: "Thank you, God, for the beautiful sunset"; "thank you for the kindness of my friend."

The third style is conversational prayer. Many people have long and involved conversations with God, where they talk things over with him, always sure that he is listening.

Because there is nothing in our hands. GOD only decides for us like when, where and how we get any thing good or bad.
