1 Timothy 2: 5 reads: " There is one mediator between God and men, a man Christ Jesus.

The Book of Mathew 6: 9-12 Jesus has given us an example of things to pray for, such as God's kingdom to come and for God's will to take place as in heaven also on earth.

We can also pray for our daily needs, to be helped to not be tempted, and to learn how to be forgiving.

We can ask God for all the things that are in harmony with His will.

The Book of James 4: 8 shows that God wants us to draw close to him to cleanse our hands and to purify our hearts.

We can gain a measure of tranquillity by pouring out our concerns to our heavenly Father.

The Book of Psalm 55: 22 shows that God encourages us to "Throw our burden on Jehovah God, and he will sustain us.

So to answer your question, praying is being in communiation with our heavenly Father through Jesus Christ as our mediator.

Proverbs 15: 8 reads. " The prayer of the upright is a pleasure to God."

What are two images of Jesus used for God's teachings?

There are several images of Jesus used by the Church, namely: The Good Shepherd, The Vine and the Branches, and The Bride of Christ. The Good Shepherd image uses the metaphor of a flock of sheep for the people of the Church. Jesus is the Good Shepherd, and he takes care of his sheep. The Vine and the Branches says that Jesus is the vine, we are the branches, God the Father is the planter of the vine. We all stem from Him. The Bride of Christ shows how Jesus is so devoted to the Church (his bride) that he gave his life for her. Hope this helped.
