Bible Scriptures: Darby Translation 

Matthew 6:5-15 “And when thou prayest, thou shalt not be as the hypocrites; for they love to pray standing in the synagogues and in the corners of the streets so that they should appear to men. Verily I say unto you, They have their reward.But *thou*, when thou prayest, enter into thy chamber, and having shut thy door, pray to thy Father who is in secret, and thy Father who sees in secret will render [it] to thee.

But when ye pray, use not vain repetitions, as those who are of the nations: for they think they shall be heard through their much speaking.Be not ye therefore like them, for your Father knows of what things ye have need before ye beg [anything] of him.Thus therefore pray *ye*: Our Father who art in the heavens, let thy name be sanctified,10 let thy kingdom come, let thy will be done as in heaven so upon the earth;11 give us to-day our needed bread,12 and forgive us our debts, as we also forgive our debtors,13 and lead us not into temptation, but save us from evil.14 For if ye forgive men their offences, your heavenly Father also will forgive you [yours],15 but if ye do not forgive men their offences, neither will your Father forgive your offences.”

Daniel 6:10-11And when Daniel knew that the writing was signed, he went into his house; and, his windows being open in his upper chamber toward Jerusalem, he kneeled on his knees three times a day, and prayed and gave thanks before his God, as he did aforetime.

11 But those men came in a body, and found Daniel praying and making supplication before his God.”

Colossians 4:2-4Persevere in prayer, watching in it with thanksgiving;praying at the same time for us also, that God may open to us a door of the word to speak the mystery of Christ, on account of which also I am bound,to the end that I may make it manifest as I ought to speak.”

Colossians 4:12 “Epaphras, who is [one] of you, [the] bondman of Christ Jesus, salutes you, always combating earnestly for you in prayers, to the end that ye may stand perfect and complete in all [the] will of God.”

James 5:17-20Elias was a man of like passions to us, and he prayed with prayer that it should not rain; and it did not rain upon the earth three years and six months;18 and again he prayed, and the heaven gave rain, and the earth caused its fruit to spring forth.19 My brethren, if any one among you err from the truth, and one bring him back,20 let him know that he that brings back a sinner from [the] error of his way shall save a soul from death and shall cover a multitude of sins.”
