Podcasts about Matthew 6

“When you pray, don’t babble on and on as the Gentiles do. They think their prayers are answered merely by repeating their words again and again. Don’t be like them, for your Father knows exactly what you need even before you ask him!” (Matthew 6:7–8 NLT) We’re going to look at prayer over the next few days. To be a growing Christian, you must have an active prayer life. You must communicate with and listen to God regularly. Some church traditions suggest that there are proper and improper ways to pray. That God prefers us to be formal, dignified, and reverent, and to use precise and proper words in a precise and proper cadence. But that’s not necessarily so. Prayer is a conversation. Like other conversations, it can be formal or informal. Certainly, we can’t help but be reverent when we find ourselves in God’s presence, but that doesn’t mean we have to be formal, dignified, proper, or precise. It’s not like one prayer method or posture is more legitimate than another. You can pray in any position at any time in any place. Sometimes we may feel as though the Lord will respond to our prayers more quickly if we pray in a church sanctuary. But that’s not true at all. Daniel prayed in a lion’s den. David prayed in a field. Peter prayed while he walked on water—and then a few moments later when he was underwater. Jonah prayed from even greater depths from the belly of a large fish. God will hear your prayers wherever you are. Your prayers can and should fit your circumstances. You can pray publicly. You can pray privately. You can pray verbally. You can pray silently. You can pray while kneeling, standing, sitting, lying down, or even driving. You can lift your eyes to Heaven and pray. You can close your eyes and pray—as long as you’re not driving. Your prayers don’t have to impress anyone. They don’t have to inspire “Amens” from the congregation. They don’t have to show off your biblical knowledge or vocabulary. In addition to His warning in Matthew 6:7–8 against praying as the Gentiles do, Jesus also said, “When you pray, don’t be like the hypocrites who love to pray publicly on street corners and in the synagogues where everyone can see them. I tell you the truth, that is all the reward they will ever get” (Matthew 6:5 NLT). Your goal should be to create prayer habits that work for you—ones that deepen your unique relationship with your heavenly Father. If you prefer to be active, pray while you walk. If you prefer not to be distracted, pray in a private place. If you don’t like long conversations, pray in short bursts throughout the day. Incorporate the words of the psalmists or the lyrics of your favorite worship songs into your prayers. Create a dynamic prayer routine that challenges you, opens your heart to God’s leading, and works for your personality and your circumstances. Discover how prayer can change your life.

Send me a Text Message!If we look at Jesus' example we would have to say that of all his names, Father is God's favorite.  In the Old Testament God was called Father, only 7x.  Jesus refers to God as Father 17x in the Sermon on the Mount alone! The gospels record over 200x's that Jesus called God Father. God's our Father. In Jesus day, those words were  revolutionary. Never before had that been the primary way of viewing God, but it shaped everything Jesus said and did, especially his prayer life.  And then this amazing thing happens, he passes it on to us. "Not only my Father," Jesus says, "your Father. He's your Abba, Papa, Daddy God." Prayer may at times be more than, but it will never be less than an on-going and on-growing personal relationship with your Father God. So climb up on his lap and pray!

In this message, Pastor Brandon breaks down Jesus' powerful teaching in Matthew 6:1–18 — exposing the difference between doing the right thing for the wrong reason and living for the audience of One.   Jesus warned that even good spiritual disciplines — giving, praying, and fasting — can be corrupted by pride when our goal is to be seen by men. The question isn't just what we do for God… it's why we do it.   When you give in secret, pray sincerely, and fast privately, Jesus promises that “your Father who sees in secret will reward you openly.” It's not about religious performance — it's about pure motives, private devotion, and eternal reward at the Judgment Seat of Christ (2 Corinthians 5:10).   Discover how to: ✅ Guard your heart from hypocrisy ✅ Develop a private devotional life that pleases God ✅ Trade human applause for heavenly reward

26th | October 2025 | Jeremy Welch | This Is How You Should Pray" - Matthew 6:9 by Huntly Baptist Church

In Matthew 6:19-34 we are challenged to ask, "What do I really want out of life?" Jesus uses a series of deceptively simple metaphors that urge us to reorient our lives around heavenly treasure. And he tells us why seeking first the kingdom of heaven is so simple and why it is so hard.

Matthew 6:1-4,16-18; Charles Johnson, Senior Pastor at RMC; the tenth sermon in the series on the Sermon on the Mount, "He Sat and Taught."

This week, we continued our series on the Lord's prayer, focusing on the opening lines: "Our Father in heaven, hallowed be your name". This familiar phrase is a profound theological declaration that re-orients our entire relationship with God. The word "Our" immediately lifts prayer beyond an individualistic act, placing us within a global, historical family adopted by God, and it carries a powerful call to reconciliation with our brothers and sisters. Jesus' invitation to call God "Abba" offers radical intimacy, yet the phrase "in heaven" balances this closeness with a majestic sense of awe for His sovereignty. To pray "hallowed be your name" is not to make God holy, but to ask that His supreme worth and perfect character would be made visible and honored in every aspect of our own lives.Support the show

As we continue to unpack the Lord's Prayer from Jesus's teaching from the Sermon on the Mount, we focused on daily bread. Asking God to provide just enough bread for today and no more, is a challenging request, but essential in growing our trust in God.For more information visit ChristCommunity.Life

Matthew 6:30-34 (from the Archive)New Living Translation30 And if God cares so wonderfully for wildflowers that are here today and thrown into the fire tomorrow, he will certainly care for you. Why do you have so little faith?31 “So don't worry about these things, saying, ‘What will we eat? What will we drink? What will we wear?' 32 These things dominate the thoughts of unbelievers, but your heavenly Father already knows all your needs. 33 Seek the Kingdom of God above all else, and live righteously, and he will give you everything you need.34 “So don't worry about tomorrow, for tomorrow will bring its own worries.

This week's sermon began a new series on the Lord's Prayer by exploring the disciples' request in Luke 11, "Lord, teach us to pray". It acknowledged that prayer is often difficult and that feeling inadequate is a common experience for all believers. Before diving into the words of the prayer itself, we looked at the posture Jesus invites us into. Using the scriptures surrounding the Lord's Prayer, we learned three foundational principles for preparing our hearts to pray: Honesty (Keep it Real), Simplicity (Keep it Simple), and Perseverance(Keep it Up).Support the show

A new MP3 sermon from Old Providence ARP Church is now available on SermonAudio with the following details: Title: Matthew 6: The Ending? Subtitle: Daily Devotionals Speaker: Patrick Malphrus Broadcaster: Old Providence ARP Church Event: Devotional Date: 10/10/2025 Bible: Matthew 6:12 Length: 21 min.

In Matthew 6:7-15 Jesus further develops his exhortation on genuine prayer. Known as "the Lord's prayer" and as "the Our Father", this is not a prayer given us to pray word for word. This is a model of prayer guiding us in the way we should pray. Jesus teaches us how to think about our interaction with God and the reward that God promises when we meet with him alone in genuine, humble faith.

Where's your treasure? Jesus exposes our divided hearts, warning that we cannot serve both God and money. Then He turns to our anxious minds, pointing to birds who don't sow yet are fed and lilies that outshine Solomon without spinning a thread. Seek first His kingdom, Jesus promises, and everything else falls into place.  The Hon. Rev. Scot Kerns, pastor of Faith Lutheran Church in Easton, PA, joins guest-host Rev. Doug Griebenaw, Mission Advocate for KFUO Radio, to study Matthew 6:19-34.  To learn more about Faith Lutheran, visit faithlcms.com. The Gospel of Matthew bridges Old and New Testaments, presenting Jesus as the promised Messiah who fulfills the Law we could never keep and establishes His kingdom of grace for all nations. Written by a tax collector transformed by pure grace, Matthew reveals Christ as the true Son of David and Emmanuel (God with us) who challenges us with the crushing demands of the Law in His Sermon on the Mount to the sweet comfort of the Gospel in His death and resurrection. From royal genealogy to glorious resurrection, this verse-by-verse study proclaims the One who conquered sin, death, and the devil for us, now delivering forgiveness, life, and salvation through Word and Sacrament as He remains with His church always, even to the end of the age.  Thy Strong Word, hosted by Rev. Dr. Phil Booe, pastor of St. John Lutheran Church of Luverne, MN, reveals the light of our salvation in Christ through study of God's Word, breaking our darkness with His redeeming light.

Jesus exposes the religious theater of the Pharisees who turn prayer, fasting, and charity into performances staged for human applause rather than acts of love for God and neighbor. Here Christ teaches the perfect prayer, the Our Father, and shows us that genuine righteousness flows from the heart toward God, not from a desire for public recognition. Your Father who sees in secret knows the difference between faith and show.  The Rev. Peter Burfeind, pastor of Our Savior Lutheran Church in Union City, MI and Agnus Dei Lutheran Church in Marshall, MI, joins the Rev.
