πŸ™"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, c.f., Matt 6:33, "But seek FIRST The Kingdom of God and His Righteousness, THEN these other things shall be added to you," 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...

πŸ™Œ Our Father in Heaven, we first pause and thank You "so loving the world 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.

πŸ™ 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...

πŸ™ 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.

πŸ™ 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.

πŸ™ 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.

πŸ™ 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.

πŸ™ Lead us Not into Temptation, but Deliver us from evil... Keep us from temptation and evil, Luke 11:4, sin, 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.

πŸ™Œ 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 join you in thanking our Father for this beautiful and faithful outline of the prayer Jesus taught us and we agree it is a pattern to be prayed with understanding and not with empty repetition. Jesus said, Do not use vain repetitions as the Gentiles do Matthew 6:7, and He taught us to pray after this manner with weight and sincerity, expecting our Father who sees in secret to answer.

We cherish how you have ordered this prayer as Scripture does, to seek first the Father, His honor, His kingdom and His will, and then to bring our own needs. This is the heart of Matthew 6:33, But seek first God’s Kingdom and his righteousness, and all these things will be given to you as well. And we love the full prayer our Lord gave, Our Father in heaven, may your name be kept holy. Let your Kingdom come. Let your will be done on earth as it is in heaven. Give us today our daily bread. Forgive us our debts, as we also forgive our debtors. Bring us not into temptation, but deliver us from the evil one. For yours is the Kingdom, the power, and the glory forever. Amen. Matthew 6:9-13

We stand with you in each petition. We hallow His name with you, remembering how gracious and merciful He is as revealed in Exodus 34:6-7, and we pray that our thoughts, words and deeds would cause His name to be reverenced and not blasphemed among the nations Romans 2:24. We pray that His kingdom would come in us and through us in righteousness, peace and joy in the Holy Spirit Romans 14:17, bearing the fruit of love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faith, gentleness and self-control Galatians 5:22-23, and doing justly, loving mercy and walking humbly with our God Micah 6:8. We pray for His will to be done in our lives as we are led by the Spirit Romans 8:14 and hear His voice John 10:27, abiding in Christ that we may bear much fruit John 15:7-8 and faithfully make disciples as He commanded Matthew 28:19-20.

We also bring before Him our daily needs, trusting His promise that He will supply every need according to His riches in glory in Christ Jesus Philippians 4:19, and that man does not live by bread alone, but by every word that proceeds out of the mouth of God Matthew 4:4. We confess our sins before Him, 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 choose to forgive as we have been forgiven as you have so rightly noted. We ask Him to keep us from temptation and deliver us from evil, for He is faithful who will not allow us to be tempted above what we are able but will with the temptation also make the way of escape 1 Corinthians 10:13, and we thank Him for His protection and that He gives His angels charge over us Psalm 91:11.

We thank our Father that because of Jesus we can truly call Him Abba, Father. For you did not receive the spirit of bondage again to fear, but you received the Spirit of adoption, by whom we cry, Abba, Father Romans 8:15, and Because you are children, God sent out the Spirit of his Son into your hearts, crying, Abba, Father Galatians 4:6. It is only through Jesus that we have this access, for Jesus said, I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me John 14:6, and There is salvation in no one else, for there is no other name under heaven that is given among men, by which we must be saved Acts 4:12. We rejoice that you have centered all of this in Jesus' name, for in Him all the promises of God are Yes and Amen 2 Corinthians 1:20.

So we pray together now. Our Father who is in heaven, hallowed be Your name. We thank You for loving us and giving Your only Son that we might have eternal life John 3:16, and for His blood shed, His resurrection and His ascension for us. Let Your kingdom come and Your will be done in our lives, in our families and in our churches on earth as it is in heaven. Establish Your reign of righteousness, peace and joy in us, equip us with gifts to build up the body Ephesians 4:11-13, and empower us to live holy lives overflowing with love. Give us this day our daily bread for body and soul, forgive us our debts as we forgive those who sin against us, and lead us not into temptation but deliver us from the evil one. Yours is the kingdom and the power and the glory forever. We ask this with confidence, believing that the effective, earnest prayer of a righteous person has great power James 5:16, and that if we ask according to Your will You hear us 1 John 5:14. Come quickly Lord Jesus Revelation 22:20. We pray all these things in the saving and precious name of Jesus Christ, our Lord and our only hope, Amen.
 
We appreciate you sharing this pattern for prayer and the care you have put into weighing each petition. Wanting to seek the Father's name, kingdom and will first, and then bring your daily needs, forgiveness and protection, is a beautiful way to stay centered on Him.

We have found it helps to think of this kind of praying as training more than trying. Like preparing for a long walk, it is the small, steady practice over time that shapes us, not getting every word perfect in one sitting. When prayer feels weighty or familiar words start to run on autopilot, it is okay to slow down. Lingering with just one phrase for a few minutes and honestly talking it through with the Lord can keep it sincere and alive.

If it would help this week, you might take one line each morning, pause with it, and simply tell the Father what it stirs in you, then bring your day to Him in that light.

Father, thank You for drawing us to Yourself and for the gift of calling You Father through Jesus. We ask You to be honored in our lives today, to shape our thoughts and actions by Your will, and to provide what we need for this day. Forgive us as we learn to forgive, keep us from the paths that would harm us, and guard us in Your care. We trust You with Your kingdom and glory, today and always, in Jesus' name, amen.
