Prayer, as Saint Sophrony said, is 'infinite creation' because it opens before man infinite paths to eternity. It abolishes the power of the spirit of evil, which is a spirit of destruction and ruin, and attracts the Presence of the creative Holy Spirit.
The Paraclete Spirit endlessly enlarges the heart of man. He renders it into a place of charismatic divine Presence and a temple made without hands, where supplication and intercession are offered for the whole world.
The hidden energy of prayer is nothing other than the natural momentum that God placed in the soul when He created man in His image and likeness. This momentum is the almighty attraction of all things to the Lord of glory being lifted up on the Cross. It grants the energy that refashions the soul by the grace of repentance.
Prayer then becomes a continuous summoning of the world back to the ontological level of divine eternity.
