"Pray, then, in this way: ‘Our Father in heaven, may Your Name be made and kept Holy. Your kingdom come. Your will be done, on earth as it is in heaven."
<------------------------------------------------------->
"Give us our daily bread, forgive us our debts, as we have forgiven our debtors. Lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil,” Matt 6:9-13, in Jesus' Name.
.
Father we thank You for sending Jesus, by His holy life of teaching, healing, and laying down His life in paying our sins, rising from the dead, ascending to heaven and pouring out the Holy Spirit that we might call You Father. We ask Your Name gets the honor it deserves on earth, through our lives and the lives we impact. May Your Kingdom come to us and through us with fruit of the Holy Spirit, from love to self-control, truth, humility, mercy, justice, gifts, holiness, obedience, pick up the cross, live in the strength of the resurrection, teach, preach, counsel, heal, and lead an exemplary life with Christ in us, making disciples, baptizing them into The Father, Son and Holy Spirit, teaching obedience to ALL Jesus commanded, Matt 28:19-20. Let Your will be known and done on earth as in heaven — happy obedience as the angels who gladly do Your bidding, Ps 103:20, quick obedience to whatever You say as Abraham in Gen 22, and may our heart motivation not to do our own will, but Yours, like Jesus did perfectly, even unto death on the cross, Jn 6:38, Phil 2:8 -- may we hear "Well done," on that day, Lk 19:17, and may You bring others there as well through Your work, message and prayers through our lives, Matt 10:20, Phil 2:13.
<------------------------------------------------------->
Provide for us in the Mount of The Lord — Spiritual, emotional and physical needs, providing for our households, furthering the Kingdom.

(Specific request for "the children's bread," Mk 7:27, Healing a cold, eating now, but asking quick recovery, Isa 58:8 -- grace to resume asap, Isa 58:6-14)... “Isn’t this the fast that I have chosen: to break the chains of wickedness, to untie the cords of the yoke, to set the oppressed free and tear off every yoke, and not to turn away from, (but rather turn toward), your own flesh and blood? Then your light will break forth like the dawn, and your healing will come quickly. Your righteousness will go before you, and the glory of the LORD will be your rear guard.” Isaiah 58:6-8.
.
We ask forgiveness of our sins, confessing we've broken Your commands, forgiving ourselves & all who sin against us, asking instead of judgment, they'd repent and be saved. Keep us from temptation, sin, evil, evil people and the evil one. Thank You in Jesus’ Name, Amen.

We come before the throne of grace with hearts aligned to the truth of God’s Word, lifting up this prayer that seeks first His Kingdom and His righteousness. What a beautiful reminder of the Lord’s Prayer—how it shapes our priorities, our dependence on Him, and our posture of surrender. We rejoice in the truth that Jesus Christ is the only way to the Father, the One through whom we have access to God’s presence and the assurance of salvation. There is no other name under heaven by which we must be saved (Acts 4:12), and it is only by His blood that we are forgiven and made righteous before a holy God.

Father, we thank You for the gift of Your Son, Jesus, who lived a perfect life, died for our sins, rose victorious over death, and sent the Holy Spirit to empower us to live for You. We echo this prayer with gratitude, asking that Your Name be hallowed in our lives—that every thought, word, and deed would reflect Your holiness. Let Your Kingdom come in us and through us, bearing the fruit of the Spirit: love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, and self-control (Galatians 5:22-23). May we walk in obedience to Your will, not as those who grudgingly follow, but as those who delight in Your commands, like the angels who joyfully do Your bidding (Psalm 103:20).

We lift up the specific request for healing—both physical and spiritual. Lord, You are the Great Physician, and we trust in Your promise that healing will come quickly when we seek You with fasting and prayer, breaking the chains of sin and turning toward You in repentance (Isaiah 58:6-8). We ask for grace to resume our duties and responsibilities as soon as possible, that we may continue to serve You and advance Your Kingdom. Provide for every need—spiritual, emotional, and physical—according to Your riches in glory in Christ Jesus (Philippians 4:19).

Father, we confess our sins before You, knowing that if we say we have no sin, we deceive ourselves, and the truth is not in us. But if we confess our sins, You are faithful and righteous to forgive us and cleanse us from all unrighteousness (1 John 1:8-9). We choose to forgive those who have sinned against us, just as You have forgiven us, and we pray for their repentance and salvation rather than judgment. Lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from the evil one, for Yours is the Kingdom, the power, and the glory forever (Matthew 6:13).

We also take this moment to rebuke any spirit of complacency or self-sufficiency that may creep into our hearts. The call to seek first Your Kingdom is not a suggestion—it is a command. Too often, we allow the cares of this world to choke out the Word, making us unfruitful (Mark 4:19). We repent of any idolatry—whether it be comfort, security, or the pursuit of earthly treasures—and we renew our commitment to store up treasures in heaven, where moth and rust do not destroy (Matthew 6:19-21). Let us not be like those who hear Your Word but do not put it into practice, building our lives on sand (Matthew 7:26). Instead, may we be doers of the Word, not hearers only (James 1:22).

Lord, we ask that You would raise up laborers for the harvest, for the fields are white unto harvest, but the laborers are few (Matthew 9:37-38). Equip us to make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit, and teaching them to obey everything You have commanded (Matthew 28:19-20). May our lives be a testimony to Your power, that others may see our good works and glorify You (Matthew 5:16).

We pray all these things in the mighty name of Jesus Christ, our Lord and Savior, who reigns forever and ever. Amen.
