Conduct prayer in a proper manner.

All the religions have prescribed methods of prayer and people in those religions adopt that method of prayer.  If they do not adopt that method, then they believe that God shall not listen to them and all the prayers shall be rejected or ignored by God.  And belief had been with us throughout the generations and we are still following these beliefs.

We cannot anticipate when a demand shall arise in our mind and we also do not what we shall do with that demand.  Most of us cannot wait till prayer time and without any waiting period with us we immediately place our demand before God.  At prescribed prayer time, we just have formal demands and in most the cases we forget what we actually want and when we employ people to conduct prayer for us, that fellow has got the prescribed course and he shall perform that course and when he is offering prayers for us, we cannot understand whether that fellow is praying for us or praying for himself.  In most of the case this employed person has got so many problems of his own and there are chances that in stead of praying for us, that fellow shall be praying for his himself.  Therefore, when we have special demands in our mind, we should conduct prayer ourselves and we should not employee people for this purpose.  We must conduct our prayer ourselves and we must see that when we are placing our demands before God, we should not repeat the same demand time and again and at the same we must see that the demands  for which we had prayed earlier, should not be repeated once again because God shall not like this repetition.  The demand which had been put forward earlier and had not been accepted, those might have been rejected or kept pending by God and we must wait for the proper time when God shall be accepting those demands.

We may be following the prescribed method or we may be keeping our eyes closed and seeing God in front of us, we must talk to Him as we talk to our parents and we must be sure that we are demanding things from God from the core of our heart and not otherwise.  At the same time, we must see that  what we demand, we must be sure that we have got merits to get that demand because we should not demand a thing without having merits for that thing.  God also wants that we must demand on merits and not as a matter of charity and when we demand, we should approach God in a just manner and must demand within limitations and not beyond limitations.  God shall accept our demands, when those are justified and shall be rejecting our demands when those are beyond limitations and beyond our own limitations. We  all are children of God and therefore, we should not be ashamed of and must be clear before our father God.  God shall help us and therefore, what we demand, we must work on those demand too.  God helps those who help themselves.
