When people pray in the Bible, it means they are opening up their internal states. When it is the Lord praying, or a figure who represents the Lord, that opening up reveals the Lord's inmost love and intention, and means that hidden things will be revealed. When others pray the meaning is less exalted, representing worshiping God from a love of other people.
