the bible says: ask and you will be helped; Search and you will be advised; look and you will find, touch, and the doors will open. He also says: and all the things that you ask in prayer and believe, you will receive.
One of the things I do lately is that I name exactly what I need, and since I never know what is best for me, I trust that God knows and I add: this or something better.
later, and this is where everything really changed for me, I pause and recognize that I have complete confidence in a God who loves me. I consciously receive from God what I have requested; I take the time to welcome what I asked for. This is something I have never done before.

the last part of the prayer is to pause and give thanks; and wait for God to answer the prayer.
the only prayer that you should repeat at the end is, thank you.
If you begin to doubt, do not repeat the prayer again or beg God to attend to your needs. you just have to believe that God has already heard you.
from now on I pray my prayer to God intensely, and I no longer push the send button, over and over again. that has changed my life, and it has freed me from fear and open endless avenues for me as a worshiper, as a professional, as a husband, as a father and as a musician. My relationship with God has improved.
faith does not consist in praying without ceasing, but in believing that from the first moment God has heard you
