Step
Part 1 of 2: Pray Wholeheartedly with a Positive and Grateful Attitude
Step 1. Pray with all your heart
When praying, let God's power and blessings direct you. Pray with an open heart and ready to receive answers from God. Don't hold on to emotions, just let it go! Cry if you want to cry. If you want to scream, just scream! If you want to sing, sing a psalm! Free yourself from emotional baggage. Express everything you feel to God. Pray for a miracle with trust and with all your heart.
- Pray in various ways. You will feel more connected to God if you pray while singing or reading the scriptures. Make praise and worship to God a prayer.
- Determine the most appropriate way of praying for you! Everyone takes a different spiritual journey. There are many ways to communicate with God.
Step 2. Think positively during prayer
Have faith in God and believe God will answer your prayers. Pray with positive words and avoid negative thought patterns, for example: "I know I can't…" You pray with a heart full of doubts if you don't believe in God's ability. Confess all your fears and doubts to God. Believe with all your heart that God will free you from doubt and be able to fulfill your request. Feel at peace knowing that God is in control of your life and always loves you.
When doubt or fear arises, don't dwell on it. Just let the feeling pass. Don't worry whether your wish will come true or not. Convince yourself that you did your best. Turn your mind and heart to God by praying with all your heart and asking God to free you from doubts and fears
Step 3. Pray with gratitude
Think of things you are grateful for so you can thank God through prayer, thoughts, and actions. Give thanks to God by singing a hymn, saying thank you, or doing a favor. Thank Him for His guidance and wisdom. Thank God for freeing you from fear, dispelling doubt, and giving you hope. Praise God for His faithfulness and commitment to you when you are feeling happiest and suffering the most. Thank God in everything.
Thank God for what He does in other people's lives
Part 2 of 2: Pray Diligently in the Right and Patient Way
Step 1. Pray diligently
Keep praying until your prayers are answered! Ask God for guidance all the time, not just when you need it. Pray on your way to work, before you start work, or during your lunch break for the miracle you want to happen. When praying, try to listen to the guidance that God gives. Ask God to guide your every step.
Set aside time in the morning, a full day, or a week to pray diligently. Pray in a quiet, distraction-free place, such as a park, church, or bedroom. Make sure you also listen to God's will and direction
Step 2. Pray properly
Don't be afraid to say what you want in simple and straightforward words. Say that you are asking God to give you a miracle. God can understand if you speak plainly without further ado. True prayer requires you to focus and persevere. To keep your mind from being distracted, don't use irrelevant words or flowery sentences because they are useless!
- Repeat short, meaningful phrases as part of your prayer.
- For Catholics, say the “Miracle Prayer” to make it easier to concentrate. “Lord Jesus, I have come before You in this state. I ask forgiveness for all my sins. Forgive me in Your name, I forgive all those who hate me including all their deeds. I surrender my whole life to You, Lord Jesus, now and forever. I accept You as my Lord and Savior. Heal me, change me, strengthen my body, my soul, and my spirit. Come Lord Jesus, cover me with Your Holy Blood and fill me with Your Holy Spirit. I love You Lord Jesus. I thank You Jesus. I want to follow You every day and all my life. Our Lady, My Mother, Queen of Peace, angels and saints, help me. Amen."
Step 3. Pray patiently
Waiting for a miracle to happen may leave you frustrated, feeling helpless, hopeless, and disoriented. Maybe you no longer believe that God is always directing your life. Breathe deeply to calm yourself down. Trust that God hears your prayers. God works in His own time and way. While waiting for your prayers to be answered, be patient, always rely on God, and ask for support from others.
