Jesus didn’t give this prayer to be recited over and over.
In fact, He gave it to keep us from using vain repetitions (vs.
7-8).
He did not say “pray these words”, He said “in this manner…pray”.
In other words, He was giving us this prayer as a pattern, not a substitute.
Recognize who you are praying to
He is God, our heavenly father.
That makes Him:
All powerful (omnipotent)
God has all power, and can do whatever He wills.
Job 42:2
Psalm 135:6
All knowing (omniscient)
God has perfect knowledge of all things.
Job 21:22
Psalm 139:1-4
Inescapable, everywhere all the time (omnipresent)
Psalm 139:7-10
Hebrews 4:13
He is holy and righteousness
He is distinct from His creation, perfect, totally righteous, and has a completely incorruptible nature.
Leviticus 10:1-3
Psalm 19:7-9
Given the nature of God to whom we are praying, He deserves recognition for who He is, and we need to address Him accordingly.
Pray for the establishment of His kingdom, and the fulfillment of His will.
Remembering that prayer is ultimately all about God, the most important thing is that we are seeking His will.
Jesus prayed:
Luke 22:42
Scripture tells us that Jesus will return, and that He will establish His kingdom and enforce His will.
This requires His will to be done in the meantime, as well.
This is the ultimate end to which we must be praying.
We should be seeking His will in every prayer.
Pray for your daily needs to be met.
We need only be concerned with one day at a time.
Matthew 6:34
Relying on Him on a daily basis, will keep us praying on a daily basis.
Pray for forgiveness
We first need forgiveness for our sins.
1 John 1:9
We need to forgive others.
Mark 11:25
Matthew 6:14-15
Pray for protection from temptation.
Satan will tempt us.
God will protect us.
James 4:7
Ephesians 6:11-17
Acknowledge that all power and glory belong to God
Yours is the kingdom
He is sovereign and Lord, because He has a kingdom.
Revelation 19:16
the power
He is God because He has all power.
the glory
Because He is the sovereign Almighty God, He is in total control, so all glory belongs to Him.
Psalm 19:1
Isaiah 6:3
forever and ever
God is eternal.
His power and authority will never end.
Job 36:26
John 8:58
Revelation 1:8
Paul echoes each of these thoughts.
1 Timothy 6:13-16
This is why we must recognize and address God for who He is, when we approach Him in prayer.
