The Lord’s Prayer. Matt. 6: 9-13

By Helen M. Fletcher

ARRANGED BY HELEN M. FLETCHER
“Our Father which art in heaven.”
I Peter 3:22: “Who is gone into heaven, and is on the right hand of God.”
“Hallowed be thy name.”
Deut. 5:11: “Thou shalt not take the name of the Lord thy God in vain: for the Lord will not hold him guiltless that taketh his name in vain.”
“Thy kingdom come.”
Rev. 11:15: “And the seventh angel sounded; and there were great voices in heaven, saying, The kingdoms of this world are become the kingdoms of our Lord, and of his Christ; and he shall reign forever and ever.” Rev. 22:12: “And, behold, I come quickly.”
“Thy will be done in earth, as it is in heaven.”
Phil. 2:13: “For it is God which worketh in you both to will and to do of his good pleasure.”
“Give us this day our daily bread.”
Matt. 4:4: “But he answered and said, It is written, Man shall not live by bread alone, but by every word that proceedeth out of the mouth of God.”
“Forgive us our debts, as we forgive our debtors.”
Luke 6:36, 37: “Be ye therefore merciful, as your Father also is merciful. Judge not, and ye shall not be judged: condemn not, and ye shall not be condemned: forgive, and ye shall be forgiven.” Matt. 6:14. “For if ye forgive men their trespasses, your heavenly Father will also forgive you.”
“Lead us not into temptation.”
2 Peter 2:9: “The Lord knoweth how to deliver the godly out of temptations, and to reserve the unjust unto the day of judgment to be punished.”
“But deliver us from evil.”
Jer. 1:8: “Be not afraid of their faces: for I am with thee to deliver thee, saith the Lord.”
“For thine is the kingdom, and the power, and the glory, forever.”
I Chron. 29:11: “Thine, O Lord, is the greatness, and the power, and the glory, and the victory, and the majesty: for all that is in the heaven and in the earth is thine; thine is the kingdom, O Lord, and thou art exalted as head above all.”
“Amen.”
Matt. 21:22: “And all things, whatsoever ye shall ask in prayer, believing, ye shall receive.”
“Prayer in the hand of faith is the key that unlocks the storehouse of heaven,” but there are many who are careless as to the manner of their praying. In giving us an example of a perfect prayer, the Saviour left this word of caution: “But when ye pray, use not vain repetitions, as the heathen do: for they think that they shall be heard for their much speaking. Be not ye therefore like unto them: for your Father knoweth what things ye have need of, before ye ask him.” And then he adds, “After this manner therefore pray ye.”
