The Lord’s Prayer
In Matthew and Luke’s gospel, Jesus gives us a template for our prayers to God. The Lord’s prayer has been the church’s prayer ever since. This series of messages was meant to help followers of Jesus think deeply about the prayer and to put the prayer into practice. We want to encourage you to memorize the Lord’s prayer and then use it to grow your prayer life. We hope this series will lead you into a deeper more relational discipline of prayer with God.
-
Prayer begins with an awe for who God is. When we know him as holy, we pray with greater awareness and can trust in his character.
-
Prayer reminds us that Jesus is at work all around us, all the time. His kingdom is never set back. Part of this work on earth is prayer.
-
The Lord’s Prayer reminds us that our sustaining power comes from God. His word feeds us spiritually and gives us a fresh hope for our life.
-
In a world filled with brokenness and hurt, God has forgiven us. Through Jesus our relationship with God has been made right and our sins are forgiven. We pray that this gospel truth is reflected in the relationships that we have here on earth.
-
Even as we live in a world filled with all sorts of evils, may we pray for the power of Jesus to overcome.
