Prayer and supplication to God

1. Alma 31: 10
     10 Neither would they observe the performances of the church, to continue in prayer and supplication to God daily, that they might not enter into temptation.
2. JS-H 1: 29
     29 In consequence of these things, I often felt condemned for my weakness and imperfections; when, on the evening of the above-mentioned twenty-first of September, after I had retired to my bed for the night, I betook myself to prayer and supplication to Almighty God for forgiveness of all my sins and follies, and also for a manifestation to me, that I might know of my state and standing before him; for I had full confidence in obtaining a divine manifestation, as I previously had one.
