How to Pray to God (Beginners)
Knowing what to say ahead of time will help you feel more at ease when you go to pray. Consult with your priest, imam, rabbi, or a trusted friend or family member. Find a quiet place where you can devote a significant amount of time to your conversation with God. Pray for guidance and ask God to lead you on the path you are meant to follow.
Know the different prayers and when they should be said, as well as the Holy Days that require special prayers. Sit, stand, bow, and move your hands and body correctly during prayer. Close your prayer in whatever way you feel is appropriate, whether it is by saying Amen or Amen. Recite the Surahs that are appropriate for the time of day or that are being recited by your fellows nearby.
You can pray as many times as you want, even 20 times a day, if you are serious about devoting your entire life to God. Just give it to God, and He will sometimes say yes, wait, or no.
