It's not. There is no Biblical record of such a practice ever being taught or practiced.
The "prayer of salvation" practice originated in the Reformed theology of Huldreich Zwingli, ca. AD 1523-1525. Ironically, even though Zwingli introduced the practice, he probably didn't subscribe to it himself. In Reformed theology such a prayer would be seen as a "work of man" whereas salvation is seen as an election of God alone. (This theological system also reads a lot into the scriptures!)

The exact phrase "prayer changes things" does not appear anywhere in the KJV bible.
The nine pillars of salvation are faith, repentance, baptism, receiving the Holy Ghost, endurance to the end, obedience to God's commandments, following the prophet, temple covenants, and service to others.
