A ten-second prayer?

WHEN WE PRAY

There is no need for long or loud prayers

Express your dependence on the Lord

THE LORD’S PRAYER

Not what to pray, but how to pray

“Our Father” - Words that should bring joy!

“Hallowed be Your Name” - proper respect

“Your Kingdom come, Your will be done” - a plea and a commitment

“Give us this day…” - our daily needs

“Forgive us our debts” - our spiritual need

“And lead us not into temptation” (James 1:13b)

“For Thine is the Kingdom, the power, and the glory, forever and ever. Amen”

WE ARE DEPENDENT ON GOD FOR OUR BASIC NEEDS

Do we just assume our needs will be met?

WE NEED TO FORGIVE OUR DEBTORS

Forgive as you have been forgiven (Ephesians 4:32)
