Jesus Praying in Gethsemane

Jesus Christ taught and demonstrated that we should pray to the Father in His name.

How do I pray?

While on earth, Jesus Christ taught that we should pray to the Father in His name (see John 16:23-24) Prayer should begin by addressing Heavenly Father and end with the statement "in the name of Jesus Christ, amen."

When praying, speak openly and honestly with God. Express gratitude and thanksgiving for your blessings, acknowledge your love for Him, and ask for help, protection, and direction according to your needs. Prayer is not complicated. You can pray anytime, anywhere—out loud or silently—with perfect confidence that God will hear you.

How will God answer my prayers?

God answers prayers in His own time and according to His will. Answers to prayers often come as feelings and thoughts given through the Holy Ghost or as acts of kindness done by others. Be patient and have faith that Heavenly Father knows what's best for you.

God expects you to do your part to receive answers to your prayers. You should work out solutions and present your intended decisions to God. God may give you help to answer your own prayers.
