  9. PRATTLING PRAYER Matthew 6:7-8 And when you pray, do not keep on babbling like pagans, for they think they will be heard because of their many words. Do not be like them, for your Father knows what you need before you ask him.

  13. Matthew 6:9 This then is how you should pray: Luke 11:1 One day Jesus was praying in a certain place. When he finished, one of his disciples said to him, “Lord, teach us to pray, just as John taught his disciples.”

  14. Luke 11:1-4 and Matthew 6:9-13 He said to them, “When you pray, say: “‘[Our] Father [in heaven], hallowed be your name, your kingdom come, [your will be done on earth as it is in heaven.]

  15. Give us each day [today]our daily bread. Forgive us our sins [debts], for we also forgive everyone who sins against us [as we also have forgiven our debtors]. And lead us not into temptation [but deliver us from the evil one].’”

  16. That God is our Father who needs to be acknowledged • “‘[Our] Father [in heaven], hallowed be your name, • (CEV: help us to honour your name.)

  17. 2. That we ask for his kingly rule to be established • your kingdom come, [your will be done on earth as it is in heaven.]

  18. 3. That we ask for the practical needs of the day • Give us each day [today] our daily bread.

  19. 4. That we ask for forgiveness … and the ability to forgive • Forgive us our sins [debts], for we also forgive everyone who sins against us [as we also have forgiven our debtors].

  20. 5. Acknowledging that we need his help to live lives that please him • And lead us not into temptation [but deliver us from the evil one].’”
