Christian scripture pertaining to getting your prayers answered?

Please, for the benefit of all present, share scripture pertaining to what it takes to get your prayers answered. I think this is a very important topic, not just to the body of Christ, but, for everyone that is even thinking about becoming a Christian....

if you want your prayers anwered, you have to accept that jesus died or your sins and that he was the holy embodiement of the lord, and act as christian as possible all of the time. accept jesus into your life and let the holy scripture guide your decisions.

Mat 6:6-8 CEV When you pray, go into a room alone and close the door. Pray to your Father in private. He knows what is done in private, and he will reward you. (7) When you pray, don't talk on and on as people do who don't know God. They think God likes to hear long prayers. (8) Don't be like them. Your Father knows what you need before you ask.

I think of 7 everytime I hear a long winded prayer.
And no where in the Bible is the sinners prayer taught. . .

rnealw,

That's probably one of the most ignored verses in the New Testament. Thank you for sharing it with us.

Here is one I use and was shown to me cause someone asked me to pray for them but really wasnt sure what they wanted answered .

Colossions 1 :9-13 is a prayer for God;s will to be done . It may not be what you want but what God sees what you need . hope this works for you . Remember its God's will be done not our will .

Sorry, God is imaginary. Just like Santa and the Tooth fairy. You will find out when you die. Go here for the answer. http://godisimaginary.com/

No he is not Belial , He is very real !!! I am sorry you cant see that . I will pray that he opens your eyes to him . I pray each and everyday for all you who seem to think that but . I know he is very much real .

1 John 1:9 If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just to forgive us our sins, and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness.
