You must find a way to make your prayer come from the heart.

I think what light wave/ frequency one puts off through the heart is key. If I’m acting from my fullest my “I Am” I shouldn’t have anything to pray about. Everything is as it should be. If I’m experiencing hardships, or what feels like hardships, I need to ask my inner what my outter is about. What lessons, messages does the the nature have for me. Is my discomfort a more of the nature’s way of getting my attention that I might be out of alignment with self and is the nature (situation) trying to relay information to me, to bring me back to balance, back to peace.

How can I pray in a way that will get my prayers answered?
The Creator is bestowing good to me at all times, I need to pray to adapt myself in such a way to fully understand this fact.

The way this question is phrased almost seems as if it’s a trick.
Praying in a special way to somehow manipulate the Upper Force into answering my prayers and giving me what I want is simply an extension of the same type of prayer that is always given (and ignored) by the Creator, e.g. a prayer that is made for the filling of an egoistic desire (the only desires we have) that has not been fulfilled.
This is because the Creator is always in complete and total bestowal towards it’s creation, and from the perspective of the Upper Force the Creature is already complete. Consequently the egoistic prayers we make to the Creator are essentially irrelevant. The Creator already knows the desires in our hearts without us ever having to speak them aloud, so the formal request for the fulfillment of those desires are unneeded because they are already heard. But since the light cannot enter an egoistic vessel, the fulfillment of these desires are not felt and as a result the prayer ‘appears’ to be ignored.
However after fully comprehending the reality of our situation, particularly after coming to the Wisdom of Kabbalah through an awakened desire to rise above this apparent lack of relationship with the Creator, this realization eventually guides us to the only prayer that could ever possibly lead to the fulfillment of all other desires of the Creature. This prayer is a true and sincere need for the Creator, and to have the strength and faith to justify all of His actions as good. Eventually, this prayer (or desire) leads to the diminishing of the egoistic desires we were born with, and creates the space for the first non-egoistic desire to know and Love the Creator.
And because the Light can only enter non-egoistic desires, this desire allows for the perception of the Creator and begins the process of correction of the egoistic desires.
