Order in everything we do is essential. The alternative is spontaneity, which means not having a plan. Order in for example ones finances (aka a budget) allows split second decisions to be made almost automatically: is it in the budget or is it not? Order with respect to worship and prayer are likewise important. In general planned order provides us with a way to not get drawn down in as many details, but worry about the "big picture" or the end goal and the larger steps that need to happen to get there. In prayer it is important because the alternative is filling the extra space with meaningless repetition (or worse, in the multitude of words, sin).
