🙌 Lord's Prayer, Personal, 3 Pts: 1. The Father, His Honor 2. Kingdom, Will 3. Our Provision, Forgiveness for Us, Others, Protection from Sin & Evil

[Nochaeld]

"Pray, then, after this manner [1]... ‘Our Father who is in heaven, Hallowed be Your name. Your Kingdom Come! Your Will be done, On Earth as it is in Heaven!”

<———--------———— ———(Selah)—————------———————>

"Give us our daily bread. Forgive our debts, as we forgive our debtors. Lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil. For it’s Your Kingdom, Power and Glory Forever, Amen,” Matt 6:9-13, in Jesus' Name.

[1] Since Jesus' Prayer He taught us was a form, outline, summary of topics, or "pattern prayer;" the following has been derived [and condensed], from reliable sources and is of much godly & personal value when sincerely prayed (not by vain repetition, but through serious consideration and understanding the magnanimity of the requests, fervently prayed, James 5:16-17)...

Our Father in Heaven, we first pause and Thank You for sending Your Son! -- "Jesus showed us The Father -- Your Nature," Jn 14:9. Thank You for His shed blood on the cross for our sins, His death, burial, resurrection and ascension to pour out the Holy Spirit of Adoption from The Father, by which we call out, Abba, Father, Gal 4:6, proving we are heirs, Gal 4:7, since as many as received Jesus and believed on His Name are called Children of God, John 1:12-13, praying even with the same language as Jesus in crisis for deliverance, Mark 14:36.

<--------------------------------Selah-------------------------------------->

Hallowed Be Your Name... May Your Name get honor through our thoughts, words, deeds, speech, actions and reactions. May it not be used to curse or in vain, Ex 20:7, and may our lives and conduct cause it to be reverenced, not derided, Rom 2:24. May the world be enlightened or compelled to reverence Your ineffable Name and Your Christ's and May Your Glory cover the Earth as the waters cover the seas, Numbers 14:21, Ps 72:19, Isa 11:9, Hab 2:14, Phil 2:10-11.

May Your Kingdom Come to us & through us with FRUIT of The Holy Spirit, see Rom 14:17 on what the Kingdom is -- His Righteousness, peace and joy, therefore ALL the fruit is an extension of His Kingdom, from LOVE, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness and self-control, Gal 5:22-23, truth, humility & justice, Ps 45:4, contentment, Lk 3:14, 1 Tim 6:6, Heb 13:5, Phil 4:11-13, doing justly, loving mercy and walking humbly with God, Micah 6:8. You desire mercy, not sacrifice, Hos 6:6. We ask for the GIFTS of The Spirit to be evident in us, our churches, families, and to Your people throughout the world, from ministry GIFTS to equip The Body of Christ through Your Gospel Officers until we reach unity in faith and knowledge of The Son of God and the mature stature of Christ Himself, Eph 4:12-13, (which has not yet happened so such workers must of necessity still be present and are much needed, even required, (again, see the reason they're given and conclude we haven't reached The Lord's goal yet, so they're still needed), Eph 4:13, (Missionaries/church planters, Encouragers / exhorters / visionaries, Evangelists, Pastors and Teachers), Eph 4:11-13, to The GIFTS of miracles (signs, wonders), healings, faith, prophecy, words of wisdom, knowledge, tongues, interpretation of such tongues, administration, leadership, giving, mercy, discerning of spirits, Rom 12:5-8, 1 Cor 12:4-11. POWER: Drive out demons by the finger of God, demonstrating The Kingdom of God, Lk 11:20, for The Kingdom of God is not a matter of talk, but of power, 1 Cor 4:20. May Your Son return and the Kingdom flourish, being fully manifest. Come quickly Lord Jesus, Rev 22:17, Rev 22:20. Mostly a Holy Life is the best fruit and sign of the Kingdom, Heb 12:4. ***We also want to ask for Jesus' Return, so we may experience a whole other realm of these things in a greater capacity and duration and God's Kingdom has fully come on earth as it is heaven, Matt 6:10.

May Your Will Be Done on Earth as it is in Heaven -- May we know, submit to and do Your will as Jesus did on earth, Phil 2:9-9, our whole lives be increasingly lived to please You, knowing the Trinity, living in Your presence moment by moment, and making You known as a by product, rejoicing in trials and weakness, as well as power demonstrations when it gives You glory, Mt 28:19-20, Rom 1:5, Rom 15:18. May we abide in Christ, with freedom to pray, and power to bear fruit, thereby making disciples, and thus proving we are disciples, John 15:7-8, might bear some fruit wherever we go, Rom 1:13, 1 Cor 9:2, 2 Cor 3:2-3, specifically by going, preaching faith in Jesus suffering and dying for our sins, repentance, baptism, forgiveness of sins and obedience to all that He commanded, being witnesses to these facts under His authority, commission by this union with Jesus through The Holy Spirit, Mark 16:15-16, Luke 24:46-48, Matt 28:19-20, John 20:21, Acts 1:8. May Your will be done on earth as You rule over the church and nations, Ps 22:28.

Give us Each Day our Daily Bread: Spiritual -- we can't live by bread alone but every Word of God, Deut 8:3, Matt 4:4, Lk 4:4. Meet our emotional, social and physical needs so we can love You with all our heart, soul, mind, will, emotions, physical strength and finances, Mk 12:30, and our neighbors, even strangers and even enemies, Matt 5:44, as ourselves, Mk 12:31.

Forgive Our Debts as We Forgive Our Debtors... We confess we've sinned against You (name specific sins and areas of ongoing struggles), and others, receive forgiveness & pray for those who sin against us, (by name and specific offenses), asking they'd repent and be saved, entrusting their souls to a faithful creator and recognizing it is He who alone who is in fact the one appointed both to save and to judge, Romans 12:9.

Lead us Not into Temptation, but Deliver us from evil... Keep us from temptation, Luke 11:4, sin, 2 Cor 13:7, lies, evil, fear, Zeph 3:13, evil people, imposters, deception, 2 Tim 3:13, temptation and the evil one, Mat 6:13, Jn 17:15. Give us angelic protection, Ps 91:10-11, Heb 1:14.

For It's Your Kingdom, (Everlasting Kingdom which Cannot Be Destroyed, Dan 7:18), It's Your Power, (All Power in Heaven and Earth has been Given to Me, Matt 28:18), and Your Glory, Forever... (Not unto us O Lord, but unto Your Name Be Glory, Ps 115:1)... We Thank You for hearing, Mk 11:24, Amen, in Jesus' Name, in Him All The Promises of God are Yes and Amen, 2 Cor 1:20.

We come before You, our Heavenly Father, with hearts full of gratitude for the privilege to approach Your throne through the precious blood of Your Son, Jesus Christ. It is only by His name that we have access to You, and there is no other name under heaven by which we must be saved (Acts 4:12). We are so thankful for the pattern of prayer that Jesus taught us, a model that guides our hearts into alignment with Your will.

Father, we hallow Your name above all names. May Your name be revered, honored, and exalted in our lives and throughout the earth. Let our thoughts, words, and deeds reflect the holiness of who You are. May we never take Your name in vain or use it lightly, but instead, let it be a source of strength, comfort, and power in our lives. We pray that the world would come to know You through the witness of Your people, that Your glory would fill the earth as the waters cover the sea (Habakkuk 2:14). Let the light of Your truth shine brightly, dispelling darkness and drawing all men to Yourself.

Your Kingdom come, Your will be done on earth as it is in heaven. Father, we long for the day when Your righteous rule is fully established in every heart and every nation. Until then, we surrender our own wills to Yours, asking that You would align our desires with Your purposes. Help us to walk in obedience to Your Word, seeking first Your Kingdom and Your righteousness (Matthew 6:33). May we be instruments of Your peace, justice, and love in a world that so desperately needs it. We pray for the salvation of souls, that many would come to know Jesus Christ as Lord and Savior, and that the Church would rise up in boldness to proclaim the gospel to all creation.

Lord, we ask for our daily provision, both physical and spiritual. You are our Provider, and we trust in Your faithfulness to meet every need according to Your riches in glory (Philippians 4:19). Forgive us our debts, as we forgive our debtors. Father, we confess our sins before You, knowing that if we confess, You are faithful and just to forgive us and cleanse us from all unrighteousness (1 John 1:9). Help us to extend the same grace and forgiveness to others that You have so freely given to us. Search our hearts and reveal any bitterness, resentment, or unforgiveness that may be hindering our relationship with You or with others. Create in us clean hearts, O God, and renew a right spirit within us (Psalm 51:10).

Lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil. Father, we recognize our weakness and our need for Your strength. Protect us from the schemes of the enemy, who seeks to steal, kill, and destroy (John 10:10). Guard our hearts and minds in Christ Jesus, and help us to stand firm in the faith (Ephesians 6:10-18). When we are tempted, provide a way of escape, that we may endure and overcome (1 Corinthians 10:13). We pray for Your hedge of protection around us, our families, and our loved ones, that no weapon formed against us would prosper (Isaiah 54:17).

For Yours is the Kingdom, the power, and the glory forever. We acknowledge that all authority, dominion, and majesty belong to You alone. We worship You, our King, and give You all the honor and praise. May our lives be a living testament to Your goodness, grace, and mercy. Strengthen us to live in a manner worthy of the calling we have received, that we may bring glory to Your name in all that we do.

We pray all these things in the mighty name of Jesus Christ, our Lord and Savior, who lives and reigns with You and the Holy Spirit, one God, forever and ever. Amen.

As we consider this prayer, we're reminded how Jesus taught us to come to the Father with everything. It's so beautiful how the Lord's Prayer covers every part of our lives, honoring God first, seeking His will, trusting in His provision, asking for forgiveness, and pleading for protection.

We can't help but think how personal this prayer is. The Father isn't some distant ruler, He's our Dad, the one who knows our needs before we even ask. When Jesus said "give us this day our daily bread," He was showing us that even our most basic needs matter to God. He wants us to depend on Him completely.

And when it comes to forgiveness, what a relief to know God doesn't just forgive us but empowers us to forgive others too. What a difference that makes in our relationships!

Lord, we praise You that You are our Provider, our Protector, and our loving Father. Keep us close to You today as we walk in Your ways. In Jesus' name we pray.
