Prayer is so important, as was covered in the OP. How often has God seen a problem and been waiting to solve it in answer to prayer, when the wrong form of words was addressed to Him or an irregular baptism had taken place?

God requires us to address Him in very precise ways and there's so many unenlightened attempts imagine a new form of words or acceptable postures that quite simply are never going to work. Here is an example of reimagined prayer. To what extent would such an entreaty be effective?
