When You Pray, Pt. 3 (Matt 6:5-15)

Pastor Curtis BakerBy: Curtis Baker

Last week we began to look at the first three parts of Jesus’ model prayer in his Sermon on the Mount.  This prayer is being offered in contrast to the mistaken ways of prayer that we often stumble into, including praying to gain public attention, or trying to use certain verbal tricks to make God do something we want him to do.  In contrast to that, Jesus teaches us a simple way of prayer that is both humble and profound.  Last week Jesus told us to address God as our “Father who is in heaven.”  We pray that his name would be “hallowed” or “honored” among all people, and that his will would be done “on earth as it is in heaven.”  This part of the prayer addresses our relationship to God and his divine purposes.  In the next three elements of this model prayer, Jesus teaches us how to pray in regard to our personal needs.
