21 days brings us to October 1.
Jesus taught us how to pray:
Our Father, who art in heaven, hallowed be thy Name, thy kingdom come, thy will be done, on earth as it is in heaven.
Give us this day our daily bread. And forgive us our trespasses, as we forgive those who trespass against us.
And lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil.
For thine is the kingdom, and the power, and the glory, for ever and ever.
Amen.
The Bible specifically talks about not just repeating things mindlessly.

These resources would be far more useful.
The prophet Elijah “cried out” three times to save a mother’s child. Why didn’t he just pray once? Cause it took three times. How many times do you think Elijah would’ve prayed had the third time not worked? As many times as was needed. If you really want a prayer answered, keep at it. When God’s own prophet needed to keep at those prayers, mind you a person who God took to Heaven without Elijah’s death, he never died...then we as mere servants should give as many prayers as we can, word for word if needs be. Cry out. God is listening.
This could not be less relevant to my comment. Nowhere did I say that repetitive prayer is a bad thing. The Bible explicitly says the opposite in dozens of examples.
