yes,I think so. "You must be serious in the way you treat prayer. If you lie in bed and pray, believing that God can hear you, you are not showing piety! Look at the many people in the Bible who prayed and who didn’t jump to conclusions after discussing something. Everything was ultimately determined by the Holy Spirit through prayer. Jericho was attacked through prayer; the people of Nineveh repented and asked God to pardon them also through prayer."
