There is nothing more important than prayer because our whole destiny and our whole future depends on it. To the extent that we can raise our prayer to the Creator and it enters into Him, into this system called “The Creator,” we will receive an answer to our requests.

Therefore we can’t expect that the Creator will do something for us; this is possible only if we raise our requests and prayers over and over again.

When one prays to the Creator, he should not look whether his salvation came or not, for when he looks, several litigants come to look at his actions. (The Zohar for All – “Miketz – And Saw Benjamin,” Item 209)

We must lift prayers to the Creator. The question is whether we should wait for a response or not. Maybe we shouldn’t wait so much; the main thing is to raise the request, and the Creator will already choose how to respond to it and whether to respond at all.

Therefore the main thing is to think constantly about how we raise requests to the Creator.

As for whether we receive an answer or not, we must understand that the Creator always answers, but maybe we do not fully recognize and feel His answer, and we must continue to ask Him again and again. As it is said: “I wish you prayed all day!”

In principle, during prayer we should not expect any reaction from the Creator because the Creator will undoubtedly do what is needed and our request should only rise from us.
