How often is prayer mentioned in the Bible?

Answer 1

In almost every book. Which is inhumanly curious since the 66 different books were written over a period of 1500 years, on different continents, in three languages, by people most of whom knew norhing about the others from all walks of life: Kings, priests, farmers, fishermen, tanners, shepherds, men and women, young and old. But what is unique about this particular collection is that when the books are brought together they exhibit an underlying common theme and purpose all pointing toward a coming individual, a redeemer, whoi would come and suffer to reconcile the injured relationship with their loving but benevolent Creator...after the Jesus events (Messiah ben-Yosef) they all either point back to that event or forward to events based on that occurance...the historically validated fulfilled prophecies of The Bible have led many to realize its truth and fall on their face in prayer...may you realizing these truths be motivated to do the same (Romans 3:23; Romans 6:23; John 3:3-8; Acts 2:38...why...John 3:16)

Second Answer:

The word prayer is indicated by a search via the Strong's concordance to occur 117 times in biblical text (old and New Testament). This does not account for the word prayers which appears 24 times using the same search method.
