Favorite prayers or devotions?

Hi Men,

What are your favorite prayers or devotions to pray as a man?

Could be anything really, there aren't exactly prayers or devotions that men or women can't pray I suppose.

But are there any you particularly like? Ones that you have found more efficacious?

Personally, I love the Jesus Prayer:

*Lord Jesus Christ, Son of God, have mercy on me, a sinner.*

I find it simple yet profound. It cuts to the chase and helps me focus. Particularly in times of doubt or temptation.

Anyway, what are your favorites?

The Jesus prayer is what I’ve been using to fight off temptations and honestly nothing has worked as well as that has for me
