Many places in Scripture either say, or imply that Jesus is Lord God, part of the Trinity of God. He is the only Son of God.
Here is one explicit verse: "I[Jesus] and the Father[God] are one." [John 10:30]

Jesus himself doesn't directly claim to be God. Jesus asked His apostles in Matthew 16, and when Peter answered that He was the Son of God, Jesus seemed to affirm this. When Pilate asked Him if He was "King of the Jews", He responded by saying, "You have said it" or something like that (Matthew 27). Hopefully this helps.

Well, there you go.
Now you see the problem with asking a simple question. Some people answer who have no real clue, some people respond with what they have been taught, some people are just expressing their take on the subject.
On the whole, it is a waste of time.
Do what I did. I had some questions, well, a lot of questions really, about Jesus so I got a Bible (Took it from a hotel room, they don't mind if you take it.) and read it. His life is written about in the books of Matthew, Mark, Luke, and John.
This way, you can get the information (from the only source we have) and make up your own mind.

I know that he said in the bible that "I am the road, I am life". he also says "I and my father are one", he also established the holy trinity according to the bible. When people asked him what to pray for, he told to start prayer by " In the name of the father, the son, and the holy spirit". I think this means that Jesus believed he is God according to the bible or he wouldn't tell people to pray for him.

No.
Anything that Paul says doens't cut the mustard with me becuase Paul never met Jesus in life.
As for the "I and the Father are one" , well, you know something, my husband and I are one on a lot of things, but that doesnt' mean we are the same person.
Jesus was a pious Jew, and he would have been blaspheming to call himself God.

He claimed to be the Son of God. Son of God and God are not the same. Even evil spirits Jesus cast out confessed him as the 'Son of the Most High God'.

Jesus never did, no. John made that leap, and often made leaps he shouldn't have. There are a few passages where Jesus gets a bit irritated at those calling him a god or the god.

Jesus is God's son, he was the first thing God made so of course he was there before Abraham, I do not mean any disrespect to people who think Jesus is God, but the bible clearly shows he is not God, but God's beloved son, and through him we can pray to God etc, he died for our sins but never actually said he was God, if he was then why would he cry out on the torture stake "My God, My God, why have you forsaken me?" Was he talking to himself or what??

No; rather he stated he is the SON of God.
"Say ye of him, whom the Father hath sanctified, and sent into the world, Thou blasphemest; because âºâºI said, I am the Son of God?"ââ

In the Gospels, Jesus never explicitly claims to be god. Instead, he refers to himself as 'one like a son of man'.
