Thank you for your two responses. Finally, a biblical account on the power and form of prayer. Way too much feeling and experiential modes of prayer given here, when we are to get our truth and doctrine from the the word of God alone. It's especially interesting to see Catholics who believe their doctrine is Christian and when they make repetitious prayers to Mary (false god, who is at best, asleep and unconscious) via the rosary (engraven image / idol), they don't make the connection of the admonitions given in scripture.
