Somewhere in #2 I do not see "No one comes to the Father except by praying to Me." That verse is in a different context and one of these days I'll offer up a sermon on it for you.
When the blind man cried out to Jesus, "Have mercy on me", was he praying?
When the disciples rushed to the back of the boat and cried, "Lord, save us! We are perishing!", were they praying?
When Jesus told the disciples to ask the Lord of the harvest to send workers into the harvest, to whom was he referring?
To Him of course don't you see the connection?

Jesus was speaking metaphorically, and it was certainly not about prayer.

I see no connection, save your preposterous attempt to pluck snippets of passages of the NT in order to underscore a predetermined point that you're desperately trying to make - and failing.
