Teaching about Prayer

  Teaching about Prayer

Jesus is teaching us how to pray.

Mat 6:5 NLT

"When you pray, don't be like the hypocrites who love to pray publicly on street corners and in the synagogues where everyone can see them. I tell you the truth, that is all the reward they will ever get.

Mat 6:6 NLT

But when you pray, go away by yourself, shut the door behind you, and pray to your Father in private. Then your Father, who sees everything, will reward you.

Mat 6:7 NLT

"When you pray, don't babble on and on as people of other religions do. They think their prayers are answered merely by repeating their words again and again.

Mat 6:8 NLT

Don't be like them, for your Father knows exactly what you need even before you ask him!

Mat 6:9 NLT

Pray like this: Our Father in heaven, may your name be kept holy.

Mat 6:11 NLT

Give us today the food we need,

Mat 6:12 NLT

and forgive us our sins, as we have forgiven those who sin against us.

Mat 6:13 NLT

And don't let us yield to temptation, but rescue us from the evil one.

Mat 6:14 NLT

"If you forgive those who sin against you, your heavenly Father will forgive you.

Mat 6:15 NLT

But if you refuse to forgive others, your Father will not forgive your sins.
