We are free to pray wherever we choose to, whether it's in public or not. But our motive behind praying in public should not be for people to see us, or as the Bible says, to be seen of men. If that is our motive for prayer, then we should not pray at that time. Plus, as Mishael says, there are places that's best not to be seen. School is a great example. It didn't use to be that way. In places like that, where society says I can't pray, I pray silently in my mind. I do that a lot. I can pray standing in line at a grocery store without anyone even knowing that I'm praying. They can't stop that.
It is not everywhere the only place that we are not supposed to pray is on a street. So that people will no that you are praying. The bible said like Daniel he did not pray on the street he prayed west ward Jerusalem.
In Mathews chapter 6, when it speaks of praying in public, that doesn't mean that we should not pray openly, does it?
