The prayer of a righteous man is powerful and effective. If that is true, then the One to whom we pray, must be absolutely powerful, to make possible what we ask. Do you pause to think about who you are praying to, when you pray? God is holy, righteous, omniscient (all-knowing), Omnipresent (all-present and omnipotent (all-powerful). Everything you need in a god is in God, is in Christ. Jesus said, "And whatever you ask in My name, that I will do, that the Father may be glorified in the Son. If you ask anything in my name, I will do it" (John14:13-14). It's who you pray to and that is what makes the difference? James 5:13-17 is a candid reminder that the One to whom we pray is extremely important, and that's who I praise.
Blessings!
