I was saying my morning prayers, and was being pushed along or hasted by the spirit. So being unsure if I was being hasted by the Spirit or some other false spirit, I asked the Lord who it was, knowing that although my morning and bedtime prayers usually lasted a couple hours, I was taught in the scriptures that the spirit that teaches a man not to pray is of the devil. (Hence the reason I prayed for such long amounts of time.) 

I was then taught:

Prayer exists for the benefit of man, not man for the benefit of prayer. We pray for the day, theday does not exist wholly for prayer. Though at times, a day of prayer is appropriate, God wants us to LIVE and LEARN!!!
