Prayer is a pattern of life more than a religious activity. Jesus taught the prayer 'Our Father...' saying, "when you pray, pray like this." Anyone who sincerely pray the Our Father will be a person "of tenderness and compassion, slow to anger, rich in graciousness, relenting from evil." That is how God's name is glorified and His kingdom is established.
The Old covenant bond was "I am your God and you are my people." The New Testament bond is "God is our Father and we are all God's children" We cannot show our love for the Father by hating or desiring the destruction of any of the brothers and sisters.
