How do you bring prayer more strongly into your life?
I’m a Catholic and i’m wondering ways that you can bring prayer more strongly into life. Like what are some ways?
Prayer is an out going talk with the Heavenly Father through the Name of Jesus.

More strongly into life…hmmm…maybe yell the prayers. Or do them while lifting weights.
Sarcasm I know. I think what you mean is how to incorporate it into your life more than it is already, so theres a simple answer to that. Pray more.

This is the request that the apostles bring to Jesus. Jesus responds by praying the Our Father. He not only taught the apostles, but in turn, us as well. The Our Father is one of the most beautiful examples of how each of us can approach God the Father with respect, love and trust.
But prayer for Jesus is more than talking to God the Father. It is living for the Father. It is dying for you.
What is prayer to you? Prayer should be your whole life, every thought, every word, every action. The best way to make your whole life part of your prayer to the Father is to accept the cross (or crosses) he brings into your life. If you say yes to the Father’s will and decide to carry the cross He has for you, then your whole life will become a prayer. A prayer of yes.
There is no greater honor you can give to God the Father than to follow His only Son’s example and say yes to His will for you.
God the Father will reward you with many blessings and graces. He will ensure that you have the strength to carry your cross.
Jesus will bring love and healing into your life through the cross. And Jesus will never leave you. He will stay with you as you carry your cross.

I truly believe that the main way to make prayer more strong in your life; or perhaps you mean how to make prayer a bigger part of your life; is to just make up your mind that you are going to pray every day. We cannot just pray when we need God’s help, but we must pray to Him continually; every day. First of all, we can be praying and people all around us never know it. For true prayer to God comes from a person’s heart. And it is the heart to which the Lord looks. We can pray from our heart, without ever opening our mouth. We need to pray when we begin each day, as we proceed through each day, and always pray at night before we go to bed. But there are certain things or certain people which God will lay on our heart to pray for as we go through each day. And we must also realize that our prayers should also always include giving thanks to God for his many blessings which He has already given unto us; our salvation, the healing of our bodies, filling us with his Holy Spirit, giving us all power and authority over the devil, as well as many other blessed things. And the more that we continue to pray in these ways, the more we will be led by God to do so. But prayer is a matter of choice. We can choose to pray, or choose to fail to do so. And when we are truly sincere to God in our prayers, we will also see his power develop in our lives. If there was ever a time when people needed to be praying to God continually, it is the day in which we live.

Through the rosary, especially. See the following promises, especially #4:
The rosary is explained here:
http://www.medjugorje.org/rosary.htm
The fifteen promises of Mary to Christians who recite the rosary:
1. Whoever shall faithfully serve me by the recitation of the Rosary shall receive signal graces.
2. I promise my special protection and the greatest graces to all those who shall recite the Rosary.
3. The Rosary shall be a powerful armor against Hell, it will destroy vice, decrease sin, and defeat heresies.
4. It will cause virtue and good works to flourish; it will obtain for souls the abundant mercy of God; it will withdraw the hearts of men from the love of the world and its vanities and will lift them to the desire of eternal things. Oh, that souls would sanctify themselves by this means.
5. The soul which recommends itself to me by the recitation of the Rosary, shall not perish.
6. Whoever shall recite the Rosary devoutly, applying himself to the consideration of its sacred mysteries, shall never be conquered by misfortune. God will not chastise him in His justice, he shall not perish by an unprovided death; if he be just, he shall remain in the grace of God and become worthy of eternal life.
7. Whoever shall have a true devotion for the Rosary shall not die without the Sacraments of the Church.
8. Those who are faithful to recite the Rosary shall have during their life and at their death the light of God and the plenitude of His graces; at the moment of death, they shall participate in the merits of the saints in Paradise.
9. I shall deliver from Purgatory those who have been devoted to the Rosary.
10. The faithful children of the Rosary shall merit a high degree of glory in Heaven.
11. You shall obtain all you ask of me by the recitation of the Rosary.
12. All those who propagate the Holy Rosary shall be aided by me in their necessities.
13. I have obtained from my Divine Son that all the advocates of the Rosary shall have for intercessors the entire Celestial Court during their life and at the hour of death.
14. All who recite the Rosary are my sons, and brothers of my only Son, Jesus Christ.
15. Devotion to my Rosary is a great sign of predestination.
God bless!

Do not be concerned with what religion you ascribe to. There is no religion that will get anyone saved. There is NOTHING anyone can do to become saved… no… not sacraments; water baptism, confession, eucharist…NOTHING! Salvation is completely the work of God, not of ourselves.
"For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: [it is] the gift of God:
Not of works, lest any man should boast. "
-Ephesians 2:8-9
"According as he hath chosen us in him before the foundation of the world, that we should be holy and without blame before him in love:
Having predestinated us unto the adoption of children by Jesus Christ to himself, according to the good pleasure of his will,
-Ephesians 1:4-5
"In whom also we have obtained an inheritance, being predestinated according to the purpose of him who worketh all things after the counsel of his own will"
-Ephesians 1:11
Prayer continues through the night, till the moment you arise, and persists throughout the day.!
As the song says:
"Early in the morning, my soul shall rise to thee"
God’s people are immersed in prayer and the Bible throughout the day.
The Bible is the only authority for truth. If any doctrine taught by any congregation or denomination does not agree with the truth found in the Bible, it is false and should be disregarded. False gospels are taught as truth all through so-called "christian" religions, yet they are merely man-made doctrines… doctrines of men.
""Howbeit in vain do they worship me, teaching [for] doctrines the commandments of men.
For laying aside the commandment of God, ye hold the tradition of men, [as] the washing of pots and cups: and many other such like things ye do. And he said unto them, Full well ye reject the commandment of God, that ye may keep your own tradition."
-Mark 7:7-9
"This people draweth nigh unto me with their mouth, and honoureth me with [their] lips; but their heart is far from me.
But in vain they do worship me, teaching [for] doctrines the commandments of men."
-Matthew 15:9
