Yes you can pray for more faith, but you need to understand what you are praying for. Building your faith is like building muscles... you have to put some weight behind it and excercise. When you pray for more faith... God will send you some trying challenges to test and strengthen you. the more things God pulls you through the more your faith in him grows

Yes, you can pray for more faith, but faith cometh by hearing, and hearing cometh by the word of God. Our faith grows as we see God moving in areas that we've read about or ask for. Hebrews 11:1 - For now faith is the substance hoped for and the evidence of things not seen. In other words now faith is talking about faith at this present moment. That faith is the substance that is going to bring to existence the thing you are hoping for. Faith is and action word, it means to believe. Hope is a word that means something in the future. You may not have it now but, you will. It's like this... You believe when you asked Jesus to come into your life that he did, didn't you? Then it's the same way with believing. Just know that you know, that you know. And don't let nothing or no one change your mind. One scripture text says it like this; Call forth those things that are not as though they were. I hope this has helped.

What do you mean with more faith ?If you mean it as increase or strengthen faith I can answer yes.By praying frequently we can contact directly with Allah the only one God.Our faith will be increased.God instructed humans to remember God all the time.We prayed to God oftenly so God will remember us and give/permit what we asked for.God will not give anything if we do not believe in God and we donot prayed to God.God will be nearer if we try to approach God nearer too.
God will forget us if we forgeted God too.
If you mean withmore faith that we pray as muslim,christian,
jew or any other religion in the same time,I will answer no.We can not change our religion in every minute.If we do like that,there is an evidence that we have not a firm faith.We can not change or convert our religion in a short period.Every religion is not the same.We should select it after we under
stand it in depth.Understanding a religion will take time.

GOD can give you a Gift of Faith.
(for one "Time" one "Shot" Miracles!!!)
I really don't know if you can Pray for that one!
Yes, it happened to me Right After I got Saved.
Usually, Faith comes by Hearing and Hearing by the Word of GOD (Bible).
You will put Faith in your Spirit if you will just Read your Bible EveryDay!

Certainly but faith begins within and grows. I personally do not subscribe to God annointing people or for God granting more faith.
God is already in us, in our neighbors, and in our world. Pray that faith continues to grow much as you would commit to attend school and grow by learning every day.

Faith comes from hearing the word of God.
If you read and study God's word, then your faith will be increased. If you are a new believer, then it is important to be around other believers.

There ia a special "faith" listed in God's Word as a gift of the Spirit. You can ask for spiritul gifts!
"Faith cometh by hearing, and hearing by the word of God." Listen to preacing, and read the Bible!
Of course you can pray for more...
there is such a prayer in the bible...
"I believe...Lord help my unbelief"

a scripture to share;
Matthew 7:9-11"Who is the man among you whom his son asks for bread- he will not him astone , will he? Or perhaps, he will ask for a fish
- he not hand him a serpent, will he?Therefore, if you although being wicked, know how to give good gift to your children, how much more will your father(Jehovah) who is in heavengive good things to those asking him".
What this scripture show is "Yes", you can ask the true God to streghten your faith by prayers and he will absolutely listen.The thing is how sure are we that we are praying the true God?
