When We Pray…..

🙏🏽 WHEN YOU PRAY…

Jesus didn’t simply tell His disciples to pray—He taught them how to pray. In Matthew 6:9–13, He gave us a model that reveals powerful principles for our prayer lives.

✨ Prayer is personal.

We approach Him as “Our Father in heaven.” We are not praying to a distant God, but to our loving Father who desires relationship with His children. (Matthew 6:9)

👑 Prayer acknowledges God’s authority.

“Your kingdom come.” Prayer is not about convincing God to follow our agenda; it is about submitting ourselves to His Kingdom and His rule. (Matthew 6:10)

🙌🏽 Prayer demonstrates trust.

“Your will be done.” Sometimes the greatest prayer of faith is not “Lord, give me what I want,” but “Father, I trust what You want.”(Matthew 6:10)

🍞 Prayer acknowledges our dependence on God.

“Give us this day our daily bread.” Every provision, every resource, every open door, and every need ultimately rests in the hands of our Provider. (Matthew 6:11)

🕊️ Prayer seeks God’s guidance and protection.

“Lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil.” We need God to direct our steps, guard our hearts, and strengthen us against temptation. (Matthew 6:13)

Prayer is more than presenting God with a list of requests. Prayer is relationship, surrender, dependence, trust, and alignment with the will of God. Before asking God to change our circumstances, prayer often begins by allowing God to change us.

🙏🏽 “Our Father in heaven, hallowed be Your name. Your kingdom come. Your will be done on earth as it is in heaven.” When we learn to pray according to His pattern, our prayers become less about getting our will done in heaven and more about seeing His will accomplished on earth. ❤️🙏🏽
