“Pray at all times (on every occasion, in every season) in the Spirit, with all [manner of] prayer and entreaty. To that end keep alert and watch with strong purpose and perseverance, interceding in behalf of all the saints (God's consecrated people).”
“With all manner of prayer and entreaty.” There are different types of prayer: thanksgiving, mercy, supplication, intercession, petition, deliverance, etc.
The important thing is to start with a prayer of thanksgiving and conclude with a prayer of thanksgiving. “Enter with the password: “Thank you!” Make yourselves at home, talking praise. Thank him. Worship him.” Psalm 100:4 MSG
Shalom!
