"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.
.
Father, thank You for sending Jesus, for His holy life of teaching, healing, laying down His life, paying our sins, rising from the dead, ascending to heaven, pouring out the Holy Spirit so we can call You Father.
.
We ask Your Name gets honor through our lives & those we impact. Your Kingdom come to us & through us w/ fruit of Holy Spirit, love--->self-control, truth, humility, justice, gifts, holiness, obedience, kindness dying to our wills, living in the strength of the resurrection for Your will = exemplary lives abiding in The Vine = answered prayer+disciples obedient to all Your Words, Mt 28:19-20.
.
Let Your will be known and done on earth as in heaven — happy obedience like the angels gladly do Your bidding, Ps 103:20, quick obedience to what You say as Abraham in Gen 22:1-2,3, 9-10,11-12, our wills exchanged for Yours, like Jesus did to death on the cross, Jn 6:38, Phil 2:8 -- Let us hear "Well done," on that day, Lk 19:17, and that those who who hear through our message, prayers and lives hear it also, Rom 1:13, 15:17.
<———————————————————————————>
Provide for us on the Mount of The Lord, Gen 22:14 — Spiritual, emotional and physical needs (healing, Isa 58:8, provision of finances, Mt 10:10), providing for our households, furthering the Kingdom. We ask forgiveness of our sins, confess we've broken Your commands, receive forgiveness & pray for those who sin against us, asking they'd repent and be saved. Keep us from temptation, sin, evil, evil people and the evil one, Lk 11:4, Mat 6:13, 2 Thes 3:2-3, Jn 17:15. Angelic protection, Ps 91:10-11, Heb 1:14. Clear hearing and leading, Jn 10:27, Rom 8:14. Thank You in Jesus’ Name, Amen.

We come together in unity, lifting our hearts to the Lord as we reflect on the profound truth of Matthew 6:33, where Jesus instructs us, "But seek first God’s Kingdom and his righteousness, and all these things will be given to you as well." This is not merely a suggestion but a divine command that shapes how we prioritize our lives. The Lord’s Prayer, as outlined in Matthew 6:9-13, serves as our blueprint for aligning our hearts with God’s will. It begins with reverence for His name, surrender to His kingdom, and submission to His will—just as it is done in heaven. Only after these priorities are established do we bring our needs before Him, trusting that He will provide, forgive, and protect.

Father, we thank You for the gift of Your Son, Jesus Christ, who lived a perfect life, died for our sins, rose again, and ascended to heaven, sending the Holy Spirit to dwell within us. It is through His name alone that we have access to You, for as Acts 4:12 declares, "There is salvation in none other, for neither is there any other name under heaven, that is given among men, by which we must be saved." Without Jesus, we are lost, but through Him, we are reconciled to You and called Your children. We pray that every heart would come to know this truth, for there is no other way to the Father except through the Son (John 14:6).

We join in the prayer lifted before us, asking that Your name be hallowed in our lives and in the lives of those we touch. Let Your kingdom come—not just in word, but in the fruit of the Holy Spirit manifesting in us: love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, and self-control (Galatians 5:22-23). May our lives reflect Your holiness, obedience, and humility, dying to our own wills so that we may live in the power of Christ’s resurrection. We long to hear, "Well done, good and faithful servant," on that final day (Matthew 25:21), and we pray that through our witness, others would hear those words as well.

Lord, we ask for Your provision—not just for our daily bread, but for all our needs: spiritual, emotional, and physical. Heal the sick, comfort the brokenhearted, and provide for the financial needs of Your people, that we may be free to further Your kingdom. We confess our sins before You, acknowledging that we have fallen short of Your glory (Romans 3:23). We receive Your forgiveness, as 1 John 1:9 promises, and we extend that same forgiveness to those who have wronged us, praying for their repentance and salvation.

Protect us, Father, from temptation, sin, and the schemes of the evil one. Surround us with Your angels, as Psalm 91:11 declares, "For he will put his angels in charge of you, to guard you in all your ways." Keep us from evil people and the snares of the enemy, and grant us discernment to hear Your voice clearly, as Jesus said, "My sheep hear my voice, and I know them, and they follow me" (John 10:27). Lead us in paths of righteousness for Your name’s sake (Psalm 23:3).

We pray all these things in the mighty name of Jesus Christ, our Lord and Savior, for His is the kingdom, the power, and the glory forever. Amen. May we walk in step with Your Spirit, seeking Your kingdom above all else, and trusting that You will supply every need according to Your riches in glory (Philippians 4:19). Let our lives be a living testimony to Your faithfulness, drawing others to the hope found only in Christ.

Dear friend,

We join you in seeking God's Kingdom first, as we are reminded in Matthew 6:33. Let's lift our hearts together, asking that His name be hallowed, His kingdom come, and His will be done on earth as it is in heaven. We trust that as we prioritize His kingdom and righteousness, He will provide for our needs.

Let's also remember to ask for forgiveness, as we've fallen short of His glory. We find comfort in knowing that He is faithful to forgive, and we extend that same forgiveness to others, praying for their repentance and salvation.

We ask for His protection, that He would keep us from temptation, sin, and the schemes of the evil one. We trust in His angels to guard us, as Psalm 91:11 promises.

Let's also intercede for those around us, asking for their spiritual, emotional, and physical needs to be met. We believe that as we seek His kingdom first, He will supply all our needs according to His riches in glory in Christ Jesus (Philippians 4:19).

In Jesus' name, we pray. Amen.
