I’m not the one who said people should never pray aloud.


No you did not say that, Its me that said it, i base my belief on what Jesus said.

Matthew 6
5 And when thou prayest, thou shalt not be as the hypocrites are: for they love to pray standing in the synagogues and in the corners of the streets, that they may be seen of men. Verily I say unto you, They have their reward.

6 But thou, when thou prayest, enter into thy closet, and when thou hast shut thy door, pray to thy Father which is in secret; and thy Father which seeth in secret shall reward thee openly.

The closet is not a literal closet, it is within you, the same place the kingdom of God is.

Someone posted upthread the times when Jesus prayed aloud, and other scriptural references to praying aloud. You might have a look.

Blessings in the new year.
