Care to elaborate? I could see a gambler describing luck in much the same way.
If I want to make someone feel better, I might give them a hug. They feel better, the hug worked.
If I want to make a Christian feel better I might pray with them. They feel better, the prayer worked.
Thus, because there are circumstances where the prayer can have the desired effect, (work) it's untrue to say prayer does not work.
