Richard, are you asking about prayer for salvation that comes FROM within you, or, for salvation that comes from God FOR you? Or maybe you sense being bound in some terror or heavy burden, & you seek salvation from it?

I don't believe in man having any ability to save himself. He has tried over the ages even till now to find salvation by using religion, his own rigid disciplines or pursuits, & these will ultimately fail because salvation from the very thing that ruins us (sin) can only come from God. But if your desire is for the Salvation from God through His Son Jesus Christ or a salvation (freeing) from a burden you are unable to release, then there are answers for these.
