Luke 11:1-4
1One 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.” 2 He said to them, “When you pray, say:” ‘Father, hallowed be your name, your kingdom come. 3 Give us each day our daily bread. 4 Forgive us our sins, for we also forgive everyone who sins against us. And lead us not into temptation.’”
Series Overview
When we pray, it is not so that we can get what we want from God. Rather, prayer is a way to connect with Him and realign our hearts with His.
Prayer is one of the most important aspects of our lives as followers of Jesus, and it should not be taken lightly. It’s something we can do every single day. Like any relationship, if you don’t spend time with that person the relationship will suffer.
Prayer is a way for us to spend time with God. It is a way to connect with Him and align our hearts with His. When we pray, we are inviting God into our lives and asking for His guidance. And such is the essence of our October series for us to learn the importance of prayer in our personal lives. To Hallow Thy Name!
The Lord’s Prayer is a prayer the Lord Jesus taught His disciples, The words reveal that we are dependent on God for the smallest things, both physical and spiritual.
Jesus is the ultimate example.
His devotion to a consistent prayer life reveals the importance prayer should have in our daily lives. Jesus’ example is enough to know why it is important to pray! When Jesus made the time to pray, even with the busyness of His ministry and the demands of everyday life, He showed us the importance of prayer and how it helps us connect with the Father.
