Paragraph 5. Jesus has commanded us to do as he did. On many occasions he said: "Pray" "ask" "seek" "in my name." He taught us how to pray in what is known as the Lord's Prayer. He taught us that prayer is necessary, that it should be humble, watchful, persevering, confident in the Father's goodness, single-minded, and in conformity with God's nature.

Here and there in their letters the apostles have handed on to us many prayers, particularly of praise and thanks. They instruct us on prayer in the Holy Spirit, through Christ, offered to God, as to its persistence and constancy, its power to sanctify, and on prayer of praise, thanks, petition, and intercession for all.
