Never ....
As often as they are willing to.
I miss the time in high-school when I had a couple friends that would go out with me rock climbing or hiking and then we would sit under the stars at night and pray for a hour or two.
That was pretty awesome!
Most of the time when i see them, if they are Christian, we pray together.
Pretty often with my husband and my immediate family, but not as often as I should with friends.
Not often enough.
Never. With a couple of exceptions, we're all a bunch of heathens... so getting together to pray would just be weird.
I'm sometimes asked to pray before meals but that is very rare.
When the plane is about to crash or when I want to win a lottery....
with my group of friends, most every time we are together - so at a minimum once a week. we also have a email group that we send out requests on for the times between our book study
with my family, meals only - and not always even then.
VERY occasionally with my friends... once a year or so with my family.
Every night by myself.
Never. I'd like to try it, although I think it might feel sort of weird.Â
Not nearly as often as I'd like to. When my wife was still in the flesh she and I would pray before every gathering we were involved with which meant at least twice a week. I'm in two small groups but prayer is only an intregal part of one of them.
I talk with my Abba all the time when I remember He is always with me. I wish I had more praying people around more often. There is little as pleasant as seeking His face and heart with others who know and love Him.
I pray with my family every day, at meals at least...and with my friends...not too often unless we're at church or youth group.
Aside from prayers over every meal, we prayed (and pray) as a family every morning and evening. Because the kids would leave at different times in the morning, we sometimes had 3 or 4 morning prayers. I wanted every child to leave with a prayer. Then we would have family prayer in the evening and my wife and I would have our couple prayer before saying our individual prayers and going to bed.
Prayer is a wonderful habit. If your prayers are sincere, you can never pray too much.
At least over the formal meal each day. A couple of random times during the week. And Sabbath is a day of prayer.
More often everyday.
