I don't think we can twist God's arm by using a specific verse.
From AWMI ministries.
When praying make sure you are praying to God and not to the people around you.
Prayer is talking to God not to man. You don't need to use a special holy voice, or
complicated words.
Just saying "help me God" is a prayer.
Prayer, reading bible, fellowshipping with God should be enjoyable, just like enjoying
our human relationships.
Matthew 6:5-8 NKJV
[5] "And when you pray, you shall not be like the hypocrites.
For they love to pray standing in the synagogues and on the corners
of the streets, that they may be seen by men. Assuredly, I say to you,
they have their reward.
[6] But you, when you pray, go into your room, and when you have shut your
door, pray to your Father who is in the secret place; and your Father who sees
in secret will reward you openly. [7] And when you pray, do not use vain
repetitions as the heathen do. For they think that they will be heard for
their many words. [8] "Therefore do not be like them. For your Father
knows the things you have need of before you ask Him.
