The Psalmists prayed that God helped them to walk in His ways (e.g. Psalm 119). Jesus used the Word when fighting temptation saying "It is written" and quoting it.
I think if you force yourself to practice something, it may be a good sincere attempt to bring fruit of repentance. It could also be useless because the heart is not truly repented (e.g., Prov 23:6-7)
