Praying is an attempt to influence probability in coming events, I am pretty convinced now that the nameless God of the ancient monotheist Hebrews is Probability itself.
That nameless monotheistic Hebrew God is non other than probability. One prays to influence inevitable coming events and their outcomes. If you were going to give probability a name and anthropomorphize it I guess you could call it good luck but that would not include other kinds of luck including bad luck and no luck at all. There are good luck gods in plenty of other religions. If you were not going to name one it would be because it was the embodiment of probability. That may not sound very scientific but considering the number of times people around the world pray every minute of every day it actually maybe an important insight. It is sort of the same type of analogy the string theory believers are found of using . String theory is an analogy type of science and it has something in common with conditional probability as a major underlying dimension of cosmic reality. String theory actually has less science and mathematics behind it. Maybe you can calibrate various strings with frequency and wave but that is pretty arbitrary. Probability can easily be calculated in advance knowing as many of the known or knowable variables on the onset of any attempts. Praying is the magical thinking hoping for a favored or more favored outcome rather than just any outcome. Still knowing there is a multiplicity of possible outcomes is entirely different than saying a string in some tone or frequency is going to match. We can calculate the probability of life existing on earth sort of but can't say it evidences itself because of harmonics in nature.

Weather "Conditions" signify probabily! Never really thought about that before....
Did you know we use the word "condition" and "conditions" to describe the weather . The reason why is that weather is conditional on probability. Probability determines the weather . That is why we can have normal conditions that are in an average range and statistical outliers in either very calm or extraordinarily raging. Weather is incremental we mostly have chronological posting of "conditions" from various weather stations and we chart those incremental changes. Average has it own trend over time but that does not prevent statistical analysis showing extremes much of the time and even conflicting with what we see as normal seasonality. It is amazing I never before linked the idea that weather conditions are using a word that is all about probability. The idea of weather conditions says that weather is all about probability. Those that worship a god that regulates the weather and fertility are just worshiping probability as I said before. If God is anything he is probability as a dimension of reality.
