Father in heaven, we are thankful you gave us the model when how to pray when disciples asked, Lord, teach us how to pray.

Today as we discuss this type of prayers, we ask that you will fill our hearts with thy spirit.

So it will Enlighten our dull mind so we can see what we need to do.

And also make a decision how we should go about it and when we should go about it.

And we thank you for your love and blessings.

So let's go with how to pray like Jesus, mother prayer.

This handout, when you get it, it touched the essence of the Lord's Prayer.

And what we need to do is you read the rose prayer in Matthew 6, and then read alongside with thoughts from the Mount Blessing.

And it has each phrase and she covers it, inspired commentary.

Everybody, if you don't, raise your hand.

Everybody, if you don't want to raise your hand.

Matthew 6, after he mentions these kind of things you should not pray, in verse 9 Jesus said this.

So after this manner, our father will shout in heaven.

So he makes it very clear from the beginning, and who we are praying to is our father.

When I came to this country years ago, what I noticed was that in our culture, when we say this house is in American culture, this house is my house.

Where I came from, this house is our house.

When we introduce mother, I say this is our mother, not my mother.

Only thing, the difference is that we do not say, this is our wife.

But Children, this is our children, our child, our son, our grandson.

It is important to notice that it says what?

It makes everybody, we are all brothers and sisters, we are all family.

Says our father, and of course he said the pray he, at the beginning, the all of you, plural, and he said, our father.

However, I believe he's saying that all of us together.

So we put everybody in the same dimension.

So, our Father is in heaven, we need to recognize that.

So we are coming to sovereign God and who created everything.

If we are invited to in Buckingham Palace, invited by the 2 mid-queens, We would not just go in casually.

So we're talking about God of gods, king of kings, the whole entire universe.

He says, listen, here's the God, Father in heaven.

So when we pray, we have to recognize, when we see that, automatically, we're gonna kneel down.

So we always need to remember, We are praying, we are talking to the person who knew, who knows everything, who knew before we were born, And who knows where we are and where we are going?

And then hallowed, glorified, praise him.

We touched on briefly yesterday, the God is what?

God is God of who cannot lie and who is there forever, from the eternal to eternal.

All those characters, that's what we praise Him.

Revelation 4.11, Pastor Finley touched briefly, the glory, honor, and power, you are worthy to be worshipped.

So always, in your handout, you will see, praise God.

Our Father who art in heaven, hallowed be thy name.

In prayer, Jesus told us to start with praising God.

Of course, this is, we are covering our former, our devotional worship time.

When Peter was sinking, he didn't say, praise the Lord, you are Almighty.

Come to the Lord in the morning, the first thing in the morning, come to Him, recognizing that He is my Creator, He is our Creator, our Father.

You created Him, And you are the creator.

When we do not know what to do, or the challenges we have right now.

I know someone who knows what's gonna happen.
