"For Your Father in Heaven Knows The Things You Have Need of before You Ask" (Matt 6:8)...
Here is the summary of Jesus' reason for giving us this Manner of Prayer Guide (or Pattern, Manner, Form) of Prayer: The Father's Tender Omniscience and Specific Concern: He is Acquainted with our situations, cares about our concerns, and in fact knows all about them like a father would know his child's own situation. More about Adoption to come...
"Therefore Pray after This Manner" (Matt 6:9)...
To fix the problem, Jesus, as any good doctor, does not deal with the symptoms of the disease, but treats the root of the problem: Our lack of the knowledge of who God is, A loving and all-knowing Father, and gives us three God-focused priorities for to pray:The Father's Name Be Honored, His Kingdom Be Promoted and Actually, Come to appear in fullness at His 2nd Coming; and His Will would Be Known and Done Perfectly on This Planet Earth as it is Being Done Perfectly in Heaven.
"Our Father in heaven" (Matt 6:9)...
Our primary disease is that we either do not know God is a Father, have forgotten how that occurred, how secure that is and what benefits that transfers to us as adopted children, born of God. To heal this disease, reminds us to forget our own needs for a minute and remember The One to Whom we are praying. The God of Heaven, who has become our Father through the obedient life, blood, teaching, death and resurrection of Jesus, who sends The Holy Spirit of adoption as a gift (Luke 11:13), and that Our Father who is in Heaven (that place that is Perfect and from Where He Governs Earth with All Power) already knows and cares about all of our needs before we speak (since we under His care as children), and reminds us that we are more important than lilies (that are splendidly clothed) and birds (that are well fed). Jesus, you said, "no one knows the Father except the Son and those whom the Son chooses to reveal Him (Matt 10:27. Luke 10:22). I ask You to reveal Your Father to me more and more as most holy, most loving & all powerful so I know, trust and represent Him faithfully.
"Hallowed be Your Name!" (Matt 6:9)...
The very thing we were created for was to "image God" and to show what He is like (Gen 1:27). An image (or copy) should look exactly like the original. As Jesus "The Son is the radiance of God's glory and the exact representation of His nature" (Heb 1:3), it is that glory and high calling from which we have sinned and fallen short, and now literally have to confess our short-comings and ask Jesus to show Him to us and empower us by The Holy Spirit so we can honor Him in our thoughts, words, deeds, speech, actions & reactions (1 Sam 2:30. Psalm 50:23. 1 Cor 10:31. Ps 19:14). Also the Bible Teaches that Go's Name has meaning and different personalities are revealed throughout redemptive-history: "The Lord Our Righteousness;" "The Lord Who Sanctifies;" "The Lord is Our Peace;" "The Lord Our Healer"; The Lord Our Provider;" "The Lord Our Shepherd;" "The Lord Our Banner;" "The Eternal Ever Existant I AM;" "The Lord, The Lord God Gracious, Compassionate, Slow to Anger, Abounding in Love, Forgiving Iniquity, Transgression and Sin, Showing Mercy to Thousands of Generations but Punishing Those Who Don't Repent" (Ex 34:6-11).
"Your Kingdom come!" (Matt 6:10)...
Firstly, Your Kingdom is an Everlasting Kingdom and though it started small, will ultimately put an end to every other Kingdom but will itself both fill the whole Earth endure forever (Dan 2:44). May Your kingdom come to me & through me with the fruit of the Holy Spirit (Gal 5:22-23. Ps 45:4), gifts of the Holy Spirit [1 Cor 12. 1 Cor 14), power over darkness (Luke 11:20. 1 Thes 1:5) and open doors to proclaim the gospel of salvation (Col 4:3. Rev 3:7-8, Matt 28:19-20). May we be ones found looking forward to and hastening the day of Your appearing (2 Pet 3:12), our chance to meet You and see You as You are, so we will be made like You (1 John 3:1-3), our Exceeding Great Reward (Gen 15:1), when you come with all Your Saints and Holy Angels (Matt 25:31; 1 Thes 3:13; Jude 1:14-15; Rev 17:14; Rev 19:19-21; Rev 20:1-3; Rev 20:7-10)
"Your Will be done on earth as it is in heaven!" (Matt 6:10)...
May I and all believers know Your will, submit to it and do it perfectly and gladly as the angels do in heaven (Ps 103:20) best demonstrated by The Savior's life on Earth (Phil 2:5-11. Matt 26:39. Luke 22:42. Heb 5:7), even foreshadowed in His father, David's Humility (2 Sam 15:25-26). May Your will be done perfectly on the planet, in each nation and in every heart, that every knee would soon bow and every tongue confess Jesus Christ as Lord to the glory of God the Father (Phil 2:5-11) and that we would be filled with the knowledge of His will (Col 1:9), that is "the mystery of His will according to His good pleasure, which He purposed in Christ, the plan for the fullness of time, to bring all things in heaven and on earth together in Christ, (the plan that) in Him we were also chosen as God’s own, having been predestined according to the plan of Him who works out everything by the counsel of His will, that we might be to the praise of His glory" (Eph 1:9-12). That God would work all things together for our good since we love God and according to that purpose are called (Rom 8:28).
"Give us this day our daily bread!" (Matt 6:11)...
(I ask for spiritual nourishment from the Word, I can't live by bread alone, I need every Word that has proceeded forth from the Mouth of God (Deut 8:3. Matt 4:4. Luke 4:4), The Sum of Your Word is Truth (Ps 119:160), all Scripture is inspired by God (2 Tim 3:16), Sanctify me in the truth, Your Word is truth (John 17:17). I also request provision for the soul (MIND -- intellectual interests, reading & study, creative outlets, WILL -- again may my will be strengthened to DO according to Your good pleasure (Phil 2:13), and EMOTIONS -- fellowship with the Body of Christ (Matt 18:20. Heb 10:25), loving You more than all (Deut 6:5. Matt 6:33. Mark 12:30), receiving Your love (Rom 5:5. Eph 3:14-20), loving my neighbor (Lev 18:20. Mark 12:30-31) and even my enemies (Matt 5:44. Luke 6:27-28. Luke 23:34. Acts 7:60. Rom 12:14), Physical strength (health, exercise, proper diet & rest (1 Tim 4:8. 3 John 1:2) and Financial Provision and Blessing (1 Chron 4:10. 1 Tim 6:17).
"And forgive our sins, As we forgive those who sin against us" (Matt 6:12)...
I confess the sins I committed and confess the duties I omitted. I release everything anyone ever did to me (Matt 6:15) and especially specifics by specific people and pray for their spiritual promotion (Lev 19:18. Matt 5:44. Luke 6:27-28. Luke 23:34. Acts 7:60. Rom 12:14).
And lead us not into temptation, But deliver us from evil!
Keep me from hurt, harm, injury, sickness, sin, sha-tan himself and his underlings both spiritual and physical (John 17:15. 2 Thes 3:1-3. Rom 15:21).
"For It's Your Kingdom, It's Your Power and It's for Your Glory, Forever"
Your kingdom is and everlasting kingdom which shall put an end to all the other kingdoms but itself will last forever (Daniel 2:44), all power in heaven and earth is Yours (Matt 28:18. Eph 1:19. Phil 2:9-11. Heb 2:8. Rev 19:16), not unto us but to Your Name give Glory (Ps 115:1-3). In The Name of Jesus The Messiah, (John 14:13-14).
"Amen."
"For all of God's promises have been fulfilled in Christ with a resounding "Yes!" And through Christ, our "Amen" (which means "Yes") ascends to God for his glory!" (2 Cor 1:20).
“For if you forgive others for their transgressions, your heavenly Father will also forgive you. But if you do not forgive others, then your Father will not forgive your transgressions" (Matt 6:9-15).
Here is a litmus test to examine yourself if you are truly in the faith or not (2 Cor 13:5). If you have received the unconditional love and forgiveness of God when asking for mercy for the thousands of talents (debt we could never pay off) which we owed God, we should be so thankful that we will forgive the little fifty cents people owe us (See Matt 19:23-34). Even if it's Corrie TenBoom, she taught to forgive the Nazi soldiers that killed her sister and abused the population of the Nazi concentration camps The Hiding Place. If we can't we probably haven't received salvation from our sins or at least seen their enormity next to a Holy God, or haven't been warned to see that forgiveness is a bar to salvation. "Blessed are the merciful, Jesus said, they shall receive mercy" (Matt 5:7). A forgiven heart forgives others easily and willingly, up to 70 X 7 times a day when they ask for it (Matt 18:21-22). If they don't ask for it, they are proud hypocrites, but you have to try to approach them (Matt 5:23-25), they may or may not hear it, so if they do, great, if not, bring another, if not, tell the church, (if the church actually gets involved -- Well, you just witnessed a miracle right there!)... If they admit it then, great, if not just pray for their spiritual advancement, wisdom and revelation and possibly their salvation just like you would a sinner (Matt 18:15-17).
May the Word of The Lord run rapidly and be glorified (2 Thes 3:1-2), in Jesus' Name (John 14:13-14), Amen (2 Cor 1:20). If you feel this is beneficial, trustworthy and based on The Word of Biblical Scripture, please feel free to share it on any social media you please. Anonymity would be appreciated, thank you!
