Lord's Prayer: "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, Thank You in Jesus' Name.

[1] Jesus' Prayer He taught was an outline, summary of topics, a form or "pattern prayer." The following has been condensed from six reliable sources, is of much godly & personal value when sincerely prayed (not mindlessly repeated), but through serious consideration, understanding the weight of the petitions, ardently prayed, expecting answers, James 1:5-7, James 5:16-17... C.f., Matt 6:33, "But seek FIRST The Kingdom of God and His Righteousness, THEN these other things shall be added to you." -- His Honor Kingdom Will; Then Our Provision Forgiveness for Us, Others (Relationship w/ The Holy Father and our holy brothers and sisters 1 Jn 1:7-9, Kept from Sin Evil, Standard & Personal Prayer Guide, Matt 6:9-13 and some Pertinent Scriptures under the Headings of Each Petition...

*** Our Father in Heaven, we first pause (reflect on Him with whom we are addressing as Father, The Holy One of Israel, and mostly as Gentiles at that, who loved us while we were yet sinners, strangers of the covenants and Scriptures, yes - even hostile in our minds -- and thank You. For all, but specifically for "loving the world (including us, me ) so much You gave Your Only-begotten Son, that by believing in him we may be spared perdition and rather freely gain eternal life, Jn 3:16. Thank You "Jesus showed us The Father -- Your Nature," Jn 14:9. Thank You for His shed blood and died on the cross for our sins, 1 Cor 15:3-4, burial, resurrection declaring both Him and us "not guilty" Rom 4:25, and ascension (adoption, enthronement, Ps 110:1), as Son-of-Man-in-Power to pour out the Holy Spirit of Adoption from on high, 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 of intimacy, Abba, i.e., "Daddy" or "Papa, etc" as Jesus used in time of impending crisis for deliverance in the Garden of Gethsemane, "Abba, Father," Mark 14:36.

Hallowed Be Your Name... May Your GRACIOUS and COMPASSIONATE NAME, Ex 34:6-7, get honor through our thoughts, words, deeds, speech, actions and reactions. May we honor and know You in every Name You have revealed about Yourself in The Scriptures -- Elohim, The Trinity, Beginning in Gen 1:1; The Name, Gen 4:26, El Elyon, God Most High, Gen 14:18, Adonai, Lord, Master, Gen 15:2; El Roi, The God Who Sees, Gen 16:13; El Shaddai, God Almighty, Gen 17:1; El Olam, The Everlasting God, Gen 21:33; Yahweh, The LORD, Jireh or Yireh, Our Provider, Gen 22:18; Healer, Peace, Shepherd, Righteousness, Presence, Sanctification, Our Rock, Fortress, Strong Tower, Etc... We honor and hallow ALL Your Titles, Attributes, Your Name! May Your Name 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, apostles, (missionaries/church planters), prophets, (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. Mostly the POWER to live a Holy Life overflowing with LOVE for God and others, singing and making melody from "singing seminaries" and "the walking practice of evangelism" 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, where we are redeemed, have peace with God, are indwelt with the Holy Spirit, are part of "New Creation" though only a "foretaste of the good things to come." The change our bodies will incur and all creation eagerly awaits is our hope in Romans 8 and latter Revelation and is where ALL of these things will be realized in a greater capacity and duration and God's Kingdom will have full expression once it's fully come on earth as it is heaven again -- the "not yet," -- "May Your Kingdom Come and Your Will be Done on Earth as it is in Heaven," Matt 6:10. May Jesus return and the Kingdom flourish, being fully manifest. Come quickly Lord Jesus, Rev 22:17, Rev 22:20.

May Your Will Be Done on Earth as it is in Heaven -- Keeping in mind the Kingdom Coming, as described above, in differing degrees, the already and the not yet, we ask here in the already that we may know, submit to and do Your will for our lives individually (hearing His voice, Jn 10:27, being led by the Holy Spirit, Rom 8:14, as Jesus did during His time 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, and obedience to any personal directives, admonitions and restraints, 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, and collectively as the church until You come to reward the righteous and recompense the wicked, 2 Cor 10:3-6, and arrive in fulness at the Return of Christ, Matt 24:30, Matt 25:31-32.

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

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 spiritual, emotional, social, physical and financial needs mightily, Phil 4:19, so we can love You with all our heart, soul, mind, will, emotions, physical strength and finances, Mk 12:30, and our neighbors, Mk 12:31, even the lost, Matt 9:36, and even enemies, Matt 5:44, as ourselves -- and see others as Christ, who looked beyond his own interests, to the interests of others, considering others as more important than we, Phil 2:1-5.

Forgive Our Debts as We Forgive Our Debtors... We confess we've sinned against You, Rom 3:23, 1 Jn 1:8, 1 Jn 1:10 (name specific sins and areas of ongoing struggles), and others, receive forgiveness, Lk 1:77, & pray FOR those who sin against us, (by name and specific offenses), asking they'd repent and be saved, Job 42:7-16, 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, 1 Pet 4:19.

Lead us Not into Temptation, but Deliver us from evil... Keep us from temptation and evil, Luke 11:4, sin, 1 Cor 8:1, 2 Cor 13:7, lies, evil, fear, Zeph 3:13, evil people, imposters, deception, 2 Tim 3:13, false believers, 2 Cor 11:16, 2 Tim 3:5, Tit 1:16, 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.

 

[Articles]

We join with you in thanking our Father for giving us this perfect pattern for prayer through our Lord Jesus Christ and we rejoice in the depth of reflection you have shared on Matt 6:9-13.

We agree that this prayer Jesus taught is not to be mindlessly repeated but is an outline that teaches us how to pray with understanding and expectation. As it is written, In praying, do not use vain repetitions, as the Gentiles do, for they think that they will be heard for their much speaking, Matt 6:7. You have rightly divided it as He intended, first seeking the Father and His honor, His Kingdom and His will, and then bringing our own needs for provision, forgiveness, and deliverance. This aligns with the command, But seek first God's Kingdom, and his righteousness, and all these things will be given to you as well, Matt 6:33. When we put His name, His rule, and His purposes first, we pray according to His will and we can pray with confidence.

We love how you have lingered on Our Father who is in heaven. What mercy that we who were once strangers and hostile in mind can now cry Abba, Father, Gal 4:6, because we have received Him and believed on His name and have been given the right to become children of God, John 1:12. We also join you in hallowing His name, that His gracious and compassionate name revealed in Ex 34:6-7 would be honored in our thoughts, words, and deeds, and that we would not take His name in vain, Ex 20:7, nor cause it to be blasphemed among others, Rom 2:24. We echo your longing for His Kingdom to come, for His righteousness, peace and joy in the Holy Spirit, Rom 14:17, and for the fruit of the Spirit, love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faith, gentleness, and self-control, Gal 5:22-23, to be evident in us, and for His will to be done on earth as it is in heaven as we abide in Christ and bear fruit, John 15:7-8, going and making disciples as He commanded, Matt 28:19-20.

We also affirm the second half of the prayer where we come with our daily needs. We depend on Him for our daily bread, trusting the promise that My God will supply every need of yours according to his riches in glory in Christ Jesus, Phil 4:19, and remembering that man does not live by bread alone, but by every word that proceeds out of the mouth of God, Matt 4:4. We confess our need for forgiveness and our calling to forgive others as we have been forgiven, for if we confess our sins, he is faithful and righteous to forgive us the sins, and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness, 1 John 1:9, and we are to forgive as the Lord forgave us, Col 3:13. And we ask with you to be led not into temptation but delivered from the evil one, for He is faithful and will not allow us to be tempted above what we are able, 1 Cor 10:13, and we pray for protection and for His Kingdom, power and glory forever.

We pray together now in Jesus' name.

Our Father who is in heaven, hallowed be Your name, we thank You for adopting us through the shed blood and resurrection of Your Son and for giving us Your Holy Spirit by which we cry Abba, Father. May Your name be reverenced in our lives and throughout the earth until Your glory covers the earth as the waters cover the sea, Hab 2:14. May Your Kingdom come and Your will be done in us and through us, that we would know Your voice, John 10:27, be led by Your Spirit, Rom 8:14, walk humbly and justly, Mic 6:8, and bear lasting fruit for Your glory. Give us today our daily bread, supply all our spiritual, physical and emotional needs, and teach us to live by every word from Your mouth. Forgive us our debts as we forgive our debtors, cleanse us from all sin, and give us grace to forgive those who have sinned against us and to pray for their repentance and salvation. Lead us not into temptation but deliver us from evil and the evil one, guard us by Your angels, Ps 91:11, and keep us from deception and fear. For Yours is the Kingdom, the power and the glory forever, we trust You to hear and answer, for the effective, earnest prayer of a righteous person has great power and produces wonderful results, James 5:16, and we ask all this in the name of Jesus Christ our Lord, by whom alone we have access to You, for there is no other name under heaven given among men by which we must be saved, Acts 4:12, Amen.

Praying for this request in Jesus Name.

 

[hostadmin]

We were encouraged to read the way you have been dwelling in the prayer Jesus taught. You describe starting with who the Father is and what He values, and only then bringing daily needs, forgiveness and protection, and that order itself is forming you. Wanting to pray with understanding rather than just repeating words is a good and honest desire, and we thank God for it.

We have found it helps to view this kind of prayer as long term training more than a single performance to get right. Like any meaningful practice, it grows through small, steady steps. The heart's motivation matters more than finding perfect words, and God is patient as we learn.

A simple way to keep this pattern alive this week might be to linger with just one part of the prayer each day. In the morning, sit with it quietly for a few minutes, notice what comes to mind about your day and relationships, and speak honestly to the Father about it. In the evening, briefly reflect on where you sensed His help or where you still need it. No need to force anything, just steady attention.

Father, we thank You for our brother or sister and for the hunger You have placed in them to know You and to be shaped by Your presence. Draw them close as they seek You, give them peace as they bring their daily needs to You, help them to both receive and extend forgiveness, and keep them in Your care. We ask this in Jesus' name, Amen.

[Spurgeon]

Our Father who is in heaven. What mercy is here, that sinners who were strangers and enemies are brought near by the blood of Christ and taught to say Abba, Father. Through His death and resurrection we are declared not guilty and by His Spirit we cry from the heart as children and heirs. Come then with childlike confidence, yet with holy reverence, remembering with whom you speak, the Holy One of Israel who so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son.

Hallowed be Your name. This must be our first desire, that His gracious and compassionate name as He has revealed it should be honoured in our thoughts, words and deeds. Pray that your life may not cause that name to be spoken evil of, but that by a chaste and holy walk you may build a broad wall against all impurity and worldliness, giving no inch to sin lest it take a mile, and so keep yourself within the wall of Christ's love and mercy where alone there is safety.

Your kingdom come, Your will be done on earth as it is in heaven. The kingdom of God is righteousness and peace and joy in the Holy Ghost, bearing fruit in love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness and self control, with truth and humility and contentment. Pray distinctly for this, as one who knows what she asks, Give me springs of water, and the Father who gives bread and not a stone will answer. Ask that His kingdom may come in you and through you, with power to live a holy life and to make His gospel known, and with longing for that day when Christ shall return and His reign shall cover the earth as the waters cover the sea. And pray in the same breath for grace to know and do His will, to abide in Christ, to hear His voice and be led by His Spirit, rejoicing in trial and in strength as it shall glorify Him, and bearing fruit that proves you His disciple.

Give us this day our daily bread. Here you may bring every necessity before Him, spiritual, temporal, bodily and inward, for man does not live by bread alone but by every word that proceedeth out of the mouth of God. He who loads you daily with benefits delights to supply according to His riches, that you may love Him with all your heart and strength and love your neighbour as yourself. Be much in supplication, for he that is mighty on his knees is mighty everywhere, and neglect of prayer will soon make all spiritual power to wax weak.

Forgive us our debts as we forgive our debtors. There is forgiveness with God, a divine forgiveness, I even I am He that blotteth out thy transgressions. He does not forgive with a reserve, saying I forgive but will not trust you again. He makes a clean breast by absolution to those who make a clean breast in confession, and He will not remember your sins in His distribution of reward, nor exact the debt twice which Christ has paid. Come then with specific confession, naming your sins before Him, and receive that full and eternal forgiveness which is in Christ. And as you have been forgiven, so forgive, bearing and forbearing, praying for those who have sinned against you that they may repent and be saved, leaving vengeance to Him to whom it belongs.

Lead us not into temptation but deliver us from evil. Tenderness to sin will always check growth in grace, and to make provision for the flesh is to blunt the bow God would use. Pray therefore to be kept from sin and from the evil one, from lies and fear, from deception and from false profession, and ask for that keeping which belongs to the holy Father who will own those as His children who are holy and who will work in you to will and to do according to His good pleasure. Deliverance is of the Lord, and He will keep you by His power and by the ministry of His angels till the night of death is past and the gate is still open.

For Yours is the kingdom and the power and the glory forever. Not unto us, but unto His name be glory. He hears prayer and He will fulfill the desire of them that fear Him.

May the Lord grant you to pray after this manner with understanding, with ardour and with expectation, believing that He heareth. May He sanctify you through the truth, keep you in holiness fit for His use, knit you in union with Christ and with His people, and cause your prayer to prevail as a cord of faithful souls agreeing together around the throne of grace. We ask these things trusting in the name of Jesus, in whom all the promises of God are yea and amen. Amen.
