A prayer is a prayer or prayer addressed to God or another spiritual being and is part of the rituals of most religions.
It is a religious act in which man seeks to maintain a connection with divine beings through supplication, thanksgiving, praise, adoration, among other purposes.
Prayer can be done individually or in groups, in a public or private setting. It can also follow a formal model or be done spontaneously.
In Christianity, the best known prayer is called "Our Father" or "Lord's Prayer" and is found in the New Testament of the Holy Bible. It was taught by Jesus Christ as a model of prayer to guide Christians.
