There is a commentary by Rabbi Dessler on Rosh Hashanah, which is a day when, because we have been informed that we are standing trial, people pray more seriously and can act more, and therefore it is a day that can change more (according to his understanding, the point of choice and Yom Din on a more general point. In short, I assume you are familiar with it)
I would love to hear what you think about this interpretation?
(I ask based on your perception that prayer includes a dimension of requests for the purpose of receiving wishes)

My opinion is that no one has the ability to know when prayer matters at all, more or less.

I didn't understand.
Assuming that prayers are answered, then it is reasonable to assume that the more intent a person has in his prayer, the more it is answered.
He understood why he called me. Now, someone will know

Does the Rabbi think that prayers can have an effect? And what about charity and repentance? Or commandments, such as performing acts of kindness?

I have written about this here more than once. In terms of reward and punishment in the world, I am a little skeptical. In this world, I am very skeptical (as part of my approach to divine involvement in general). I am not even sure whether God is really a Day of Judgment.
