Scripture: Matthew 6:9 / Luke 11:1-2
SHOW NOTES:
Prayer is a vital part of our Christian life. We communicate with our Heavenly Father and seek His wisdom, guidance, and direction. Jesus’ disciples traveled with Him for three years. They listened to His teachings, witnessed His miracles, and heard Him pray. Many times, He would go off to pray in the evening or early morning hours.
In today's lesson, the disciples ask Jesus to teach them how to pray. He responds with the prayer we often call The Lord’s Prayer (Matthew 6:9-15) or The Disciples’ Prayer (Luke 11:2-4). This prayer is the example or model Jesus gave to His disciples.
One day, Jesus was praying in a certain place. When He finished, one of his disciples said to Him, “Lord, teach us to pray, just as John taught his disciples.”
He said to them, “When you pray, say: ‘Father, hallowed be Your name.’”
- Luke 11:1-2
God's "name" reflects His nature. Jesus called God His Father. We also call Him our Heavenly Father to give Him glory and praise.
But now you must be holy in everything you do, just as God who chose you is holy.
- 1 Peter 1:15
