The First Epistle of the Apostle Paul to Timothy
Chapter 2:8
8 I will therefore that the men pray, everywhere lifting up pure hands without wrath, or doubting.
Herein lies the gist of our prayer line to our Creator. That would, nay should be in prayer at anytime giving all thanks and praise to Him, and to seek prayer for all in all things. The lifting of hands, (and subsequent bowing of the knees), defines our submission to Him. It represents that we are acting in pure faith, and a cleansed heart. No prayer for evil to befall others that have wronged us in anyway, that is to say to seek evil to repay evil. But to seek goodness to change evil. 1 Thessalonians 5:15
Likewise to never cease from prayer, and to pray and believe in faith that prayer will be answered.
