From Easton's 1897 Bible Dictionary [easton]:
Prayer       is converse with God; the intercourse of the soul with God, not       in contemplation or meditation, but in direct address to him.       Prayer may be oral or mental, occasional or constant,       ejaculatory or formal. It is a "beseeching the Lord" (Ex.       32:11); "pouring out the soul before the Lord" (1 Sam. 1:15);       "praying and crying to heaven" (2 Chr. 32:20); "seeking unto God       and making supplication" (Job 8:5); "drawing near to God" (Ps.       73:28); "bowing the knees" (Eph. 3:14).                Prayer presupposes a belief in the personality of God, his       ability and willingness to hold intercourse with us, his       personal control of all things and of all his creatures and all       their actions.                Acceptable prayer must be sincere (Heb. 10:22), offered with       reverence and godly fear, with a humble sense of our own       insignificance as creatures and of our own unworthiness as       sinners, with earnest importunity, and with unhesitating       submission to the divine will. Prayer must also be offered in       the faith that God is, and is the hearer and answerer of prayer,       and that he will fulfil his word, "Ask, and ye shall receive"       (Matt. 7:7, 8; 21:22; Mark 11:24; John 14:13, 14), and in the       name of Christ (16:23, 24; 15:16; Eph. 2:18; 5:20; Col. 3:17; 1       Pet. 2:5).                Prayer is of different kinds, secret (Matt. 6:6); social, as       family prayers, and in social worship; and public, in the       service of the sanctuary.                Intercessory prayer is enjoined (Num. 6:23; Job 42:8; Isa.       62:6; Ps. 122:6; 1 Tim. 2:1; James 5:14), and there are many       instances on record of answers having been given to such       prayers, e.g., of Abraham (Gen. 17:18, 20; 18:23-32; 20:7, 17,       18), of Moses for Pharaoh (Ex. 8:12, 13, 30, 31; Ex. 9:33), for       the Israelites (Ex. 17:11, 13; 32:11-14, 31-34; Num. 21:7, 8;       Deut. 9:18, 19, 25), for Miriam (Num. 12:13), for Aaron (Deut.       9:20), of Samuel (1 Sam. 7:5-12), of Solomon (1 Kings 8; 2 Chr.       6), Elijah (1 Kings 17:20-23), Elisha (2 Kings 4:33-36), Isaiah       (2 Kings 19), Jeremiah (42:2-10), Peter (Acts 9:40), the church       (12:5-12), Paul (28:8).                No rules are anywhere in Scripture laid down for the manner of       prayer or the attitude to be assumed by the suppliant. There is       mention made of kneeling in prayer (1 Kings 8:54; 2 Chr. 6:13;       Ps. 95:6; Isa. 45:23; Luke 22:41; Acts 7:60; 9:40; Eph. 3:14,       etc.); of bowing and falling prostrate (Gen. 24:26, 52; Ex.       4:31; 12:27; Matt. 26:39; Mark 14:35, etc.); of spreading out       the hands (1 Kings 8:22, 38, 54; Ps. 28:2; 63:4; 88:9; 1 Tim.       2:8, etc.); and of standing (1 Sam. 1:26; 1 Kings 8:14, 55; 2       Chr. 20:9; Mark 11:25; Luke 18:11, 13).                If we except the "Lord's Prayer" (Matt. 6:9-13), which is,       however, rather a model or pattern of prayer than a set prayer       to be offered up, we have no special form of prayer for general       use given us in Scripture.                Prayer is frequently enjoined in Scripture (Ex. 22:23, 27; 1       Kings 3:5; 2 Chr. 7:14; Ps. 37:4; Isa. 55:6; Joel 2:32; Ezek.       36:37, etc.), and we have very many testimonies that it has been       answered (Ps. 3:4; 4:1; 6:8; 18:6; 28:6; 30:2; 34:4; 118:5;       James 5:16-18, etc.).                "Abraham's servant prayed to God, and God directed him to the       person who should be wife to his master's son and heir (Gen.       24:10-20).                "Jacob prayed to God, and God inclined the heart of his       irritated brother, so that they met in peace and friendship       (Gen. 32:24-30; 33:1-4).                "Samson prayed to God, and God showed him a well where he       quenched his burning thirst, and so lived to judge Israel (Judg.       15:18-20).                "David prayed, and God defeated the counsel of Ahithophel (2       Sam. 15:31; 16:20-23; 17:14-23).                "Daniel prayed, and God enabled him both to tell       Nebuchadnezzar his dream and to give the interpretation of it       (Dan. 2: 16-23).                "Nehemiah prayed, and God inclined the heart of the king of       Persia to grant him leave of absence to visit and rebuild       Jerusalem (Neh. 1:11; 2:1-6).                "Esther and Mordecai prayed, and God defeated the purpose of       Haman, and saved the Jews from destruction (Esther 4:15-17; 6:7,       8).                "The believers in Jerusalem prayed, and God opened the prison       doors and set Peter at liberty, when Herod had resolved upon his       death (Acts 12:1-12).                "Paul prayed that the thorn in the flesh might be removed, and       his prayer brought a large increase of spiritual strength, while       the thorn perhaps remained (2 Cor. 12:7-10).                "Prayer is like the dove that Noah sent forth, which blessed       him not only when it returned with an olive-leaf in its mouth,       but when it never returned at all.", Robinson's Job.
