Answer 3

Prayers and worship are both from the heart and can be intertwined as we acknowledge God. My prayers can be worship.
prayer (n.) A reverent petition made to God.
prayer (n.) An act of communion with God, such as in devotion, confession, praise, or thanksgiving:
Notice the dual meanings and actions to one word.

Worship:"the reverent love and allegiance accorded a deity, " The Greek words for worship combine the ideas of "falling down before," "paying homage to," and "serving." From these definitions it is obvious that worship involves recognition of worth in God, and the offering of our honor, praise, and adoration to the One who is altogether worthy.

Answer 4

I teach a class of tiny three year old children on Sunday mornings. They seem to understand that prayer is when you are telling God something, or asking him for something: sorry, help, I need something, or thank you. Prayer is a petition or acknowledgment: Father, in heaven, your name is holy, your kingdom come, give us this day our daily bread, deliver us from evil . . . Then there is worship! That's when I tell God how incredibly wonderful, awesome, great, glorious, mysterious, mighty, mind-boggling and totally always right He is. They get it. Worship is loving Him from the heart.

Answer 5

You shall worship the Lord your God" (Mt 4:10). Adoring God, praying to him, offering him the worship that belongs to him, fulfilling the promises and vows made to him are acts of the virtue of religion which fall under obedience to the first commandment.
The duty of offering God genuine worship concerns man both individually and socially. This is "the traditional Catholic teaching on the moral duty of individuals and societies toward the true religion and the one Church of Christ." By constantly evangelizing men, the Church works toward enabling them "to infuse the Christian spirit into the mentality and mores, laws and structures of the communities in which [they] live." The social duty of Christians is to respect and awaken in each man the love of the true and the good. It requires them to make known the worship of the one true religion which subsists in the Catholic and apostolic Church. Christians are called to be the light of the world. Thus, the Church shows forth the kingship of Christ over all creation and in particular over human societies.

Answer 6

Christian, non-denominational...

Prayer is a specific act. Simply put, it's having a conversation with God, and it consists up talking to Him, and listening to Him.
Prayer is one way to worship.
Worship itself can be many different things, from singing, to tithing, to good deeds in God's name, serving within the church, or simple prayer.
Worship is lifting His name up before mankind and giving thanks along the way for all He has done for us.
