The Lord's Prayer

Unlike most of my messages, I will be teaching out of NAS version of the Lord's Prayer in Mt 6. I thought a summary outline which will be used for this series on the Lord's Prayer would be of help:

'Our Father who is in heaven, hallowed be Your name. Your kingdom come, Your will be done on earth as it is in heaven. Give us this day our daily bread. And forgive us our debts, as we also have forgiven 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.' (Mt 6:9-13, NAS)


Entering the Presence of God
(v.9) “Our Father who is in heaven, hallowed be Your Name…”

Relationship & Identity

Living in the Power of God
(v.10) “Your kingdom come, Your will be done on earth as it is in heaven…”

Hope & Confidence in the Will of God

Fulfilling the Purpose of God
(v.11) “Give us today our daily bread. Forgive us our debts as we also have forgiven our debtors.”

Trust & Love

Maturing to Perfection in God
(vv.12-13) “And lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from the evil one. For Thine is the kingdom and the power and the glory, for ever. Amen. ”

Trials & Maturity
