In our third look at Matthew 6:1-18, which contains the Lord’s Prayer, or the Our Father, we examine the prayer itself, which serves not only as a prayer of Christians of all places and times but also as a model for our praying. It consists of an initial address to God, three requests for God’s glory, and three requests for our more pressing needs.
God’s creation shows forth his majesty and the majesty of humanity and of the Son of Man.
Sooner or later every kingdom that opposes God will be “all gone,” but there is a kingdom that will not pass away.
The model described in Colossians 4:2-6 of ministry to those outside the church is very simple: pray, walk, and talk.
