I think you are referring to the parable of the Pharisee and the tax collector. It is found in Luke's gospel: Lk 18:9-14 He also told this parable to some who trusted in themselves that they were righteous and despised others: 10 "Two men went up into the temple to pray, one a Pharisee and the other a tax collector. 11 The Pharisee stood and prayed thus to himself, 'God, I thank thee that I am not like other men, extortioners, unjust, adulterers, or even like this tax collector. 12 I fast twice a week, I give tithes of all that I get.' 13 But the tax collector, standing far off, would not even lift up his eyes to heaven, but beat his breast, saying, 'God, be merciful to me a sinner!' 14 I tell you, this man went down to his house justified rather than the other; for every one who exalts himself will be humbled, but he who humbles himself will be exalted."

Devotional prayer is praying with strong love and honor to God or the saint you are praying to. It is a sincere prayer from the heart.
The Bible tells us 'Pray without ceasing'. Continual prayer to God is the only effective way. Even if your prayer isn't answered in the time you want it to be, it will be answered in God's time and not necessarily how you may have wanted it to be. But do not stop praying, prayer is an important part of your relationship with God.
