“This, then, is how you should pray:
Our Father in heaven,
hallowed be your name,
your kingdom come,
your will be done on earth as it is in heaven.
Give us today our daily bread.
Forgive us our debts, as we also have forgiven our debtors.
And lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from the evil one.
for yours is the kingdom and the power and the glory forever.
Amen.”
Matthew 6v9-13
This is, in all probability, the prayer that is most frequently used, and repeated, by those professing to be Christian Disciples and also by those who are not. It is often called the “Lord’s Prayer”. This is not because Jesus, Himself would have prayed it, for as He was sinless, He would have had no need to have said to God, “forgive us our debts” (Matthew 6v12). It was given by Jesus as a model for His Disciples prayers to be like, hence Jesus saying “how you should pray” (Matthew 6v9). When it is spoken and prayed, I wonder if some people truly understand what is being prayed?
Come and listen to find out more! When you have listened, answer the following questions for yourself!
Q1. In what ways can I as a Christian Disciple adapt my prayers to follow this model given by Jesus?
Q2. How can my prayer life reflect attention on God’s name, will and kingdom?
Q3. How often do I lead myself into temptation and blame others for it?
