"The Lord's Prayer"
"After this manner, therefore
pray ye:
Our Father which art in
heaven,
Hallowed be thy name.
Thy kingdom come,
Thy will be done in earth,
as
it is in
heaven.
Give us this day our daily
bread.
And forgive us our debts,
as
we forgive our debtors.
And lead us not into
temptation,
but deliver us from evil:
For thine is the kingdom,
and the power, and the glory,
for ever.
Amen.
Matthew 6:9-13
Prayer should be marked by
sincerity (Matt.6:6)
and simplicity (Matt. 6:7).
This is a wonderful model
prayer
for believers of all
conditions.
Its petition, so simple,
yet one that should come from
the heart
with great enthusiasm!
It speaks of our utter
dependence upon God.
May we never forget:
Our everything is
supplied by Him day by day.
Just as Israel gathered manna
for the day,
they gathered nothing for the
morrow,
This prayer gathers manna
every day
as our basic needs are met by
God.
