Answer 4

The four types of prayer can be remembered by the letters, PRAY.

P is for Praise where you praise the Lord. The Psalms are often helpful for this.

R is for Repent where you confess your sins and ask for forgiveness.

A is for Ask where you focus on things going on in the world and even locally but only for the god of others.

Y is for yourself where you pray for things in your own life and thank him for showing kindness to you.

For an outline of how to pray, see Matthew 6:10-14 in The Bible where Jesus himself teaches us how to pray.
