A minute in God’s Word will change your life. Take a moment to read the text below and then pray this prayer using the prompts at the bottom of the post.
Pray like this:
Our Father in heaven,
may your name be kept holy.
May your Kingdom come soon.
May your will be done on earth,
as it is in heaven.
Give us today the food we need,
and forgive us our sins,
as we have forgiven those who sin against us.
And don’t let us yield to temptation,
but rescue us from the evil one.
Matthew 6:9-13
Our Father in heaven, may our name be kept holy.
[Pray to God about his holiness. Praise him for who He is.]
May your Kingdom come soon.
[Pray about God’s Kingdom; for the world, your country, your town, your neighborhood. Pray that he moves in a mighty way to grow his children everywhere.]
May your will be done on earth as it is in heaven.
[Pray for God’s will. What would it look like if this earth were like heaven? Pray that we will live according to his will.]
Give us today the food we need, and forgive us our sins, as we have forgiven those who sin against us.
[Ask God. Place your needs before him and then thank him for what he has already given. Pray to forgive others and for forgiveness for yourself.]
And don’t let us yield to temptation, but rescue us from the evil one.
[Pray for protection. Pray for the things that tempt you. Praise God because he has already overcome the evil one.]
