If "Prayer" means good intention, then I would guess it's antonym (sp?) would be "Curse." Both are generated by sender's thought-energy and both can happen. For further explanation, read the book "Be Careful What You Pray For...You Just Might Get It (Paperback)

Most people see prayer as asking a god or gods for something good, helpful or a blessing, then the opposite would be to ask for something not so good or destructive in some way.

This would be a curse. Though this, in itself, is a prayer.

Additional Comment:

If prayer is simply talking to God - communications - then the opposite is simply silence.

Pray, in the religious meaning of entreating God, beseech, etc. has no antonym. However in its meaning to request, then its antonyms include: deny, disclaim, recall, refuse, renounce, retract, revoke. Taken from Thesauras.com
