Tracey Olivier studies the Lord's Prayer (Matthew 6) and the Kingdom principles it contains, allowing time for us to pause and reflect on each line, as to how it applies to our decisions and attitudes in our everyday lives. 

Prayer is not a practice to inform God but a process to transform us.

The Lord's Prayer | Matthew 6:9 | Cody Cline

A Model for Prayer-Matthew 6.wav by Chaplain Braswell

Summary This is a sermon in a series on the Sermon on the Mount. Florence has reached the "peak" (the central teaching) and will focus on the Lord's Prayer (Matthew 6:5–13). She begins with how not to pray (avoid performative "hypocritical" public prayer; avoid mindless "babbling"), then move into how to pray, unpacking the Lord's Prayer as a model with two dimensions: a vertical focus on God (God's name, kingdom, will) a horizontal focus on human needs (provision, forgiveness, spiritual protection) She notes these form a "cross" shape (vertical + horizontal), highlighting the cross as central to Christian faith. Key points 1) How not to pray (Matt. 6:5–8) Don't turn prayer into a performance aimed at being seen by others. Don't "babble" — i.e., don't repeat words unthinkingly or incoherently; prayer should be conscious of who God is. 2) How to pray: the Lord's Prayer (Matt. 6:9–13) Vertical (God-centred) "Our Father in heaven": God is intimate ("Father" through adoption in Christ) yet transcendent ("in heaven" → reverence and awe). "Hallowed be your name": asking that God's reputation/holiness be honoured in the world and in our lives; motivation to live in a way that reflects the "family likeness." "Your kingdom come": God's reign has already begun (in Christ and in believers) and is still coming in fullness; praying for God's rule in personal life, the church, and the future new creation. "Your will be done… on earth as in heaven": described as hard because humans resist surrender and control; the speaker argues trust grows by knowing God's unchanging character (loving, just, holy, etc.). The "on earth as in heaven" line is presented as a bridge between vertical worship and horizontal needs; heaven's obedience is pictured as willing, immediate, uncomplaining—an example for believers. Horizontal (needs-centred, but "us/our" communal) The plural language ("us/our/we") means the prayer is corporate, not just individual: we pray for one another and the wider church. 3) Three human needs in the prayer Physical provision: "daily bread" explained historically (many were paid daily, buying food for the next day). It includes broader needs (shelter, clothing, work). Links to manna and to Jesus as the "bread of life," urging daily dependence on Christ, not just material fullness. Relational/forgiveness: "forgive us… as we forgive" is treated seriously (including v.14–15). Florence  clarifies salvation isn't earned by forgiving, but forgiveness of others is bound up with genuine repentance and receiving God's forgiveness. Forgiveness is framed as giving up the right to pay back, which frees the forgiver and moves them toward God. Spiritual protection: "lead us not into temptation" is explained as asking God to help us remain steady in testing; God doesn't tempt to evil, but may allow tests, while the evil one tempts. The desired response in tests is to submit to God's sovereignty and commit the situation repeatedly to him (not "one-and-done"). Includes an illustration/prayer attributed to Stuart Briscoe about weakness and asking deliverance from the evil one.

The Lord's Prayer | Matthew 6:5-8 | Jake Hering

This message continues teaching on the Lord's Prayer- Matthew 6:9-13 The post Give us today our daily bread appeared first on Trinity Community Church.

Today, we will read the passage that contains what became known as The Lord's Prayer—Matthew 6:6-13. The words of Jesus.But when you pray, go away by yourself, shut the door behind you, and pray to your Father in private. Then your Father, who sees everything, will reward you. “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! 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.The time we invest in prayer is going to pay dividends as we live our life. The time in private with God is going to be seen in public with others because prayer changes us, changes our thinking, and changes our circumstances. Jesus says that the key to our prayers doesn't lie in repetition to Him but in relationship with Him.With this in mind, listen again to the passage from the Message translation. Jesus says to you, and IThe world is full of so-called prayer warriors who are prayer-ignorant. They're full of formulas and programs and advice, peddling techniques for getting what you want from God. Don't fall for that nonsense. This is your Father you are dealing with, and he knows better than you what you need. With a God like this loving you, you can pray very simply. Like this: Our Father in heaven, Reveal who you are. Set the world right; Do what's best—as above, so below. Keep us alive with three square meals. Keep us forgiven with you and forgiving others. Keep us safe from ourselves and the Devil. You're in charge! You can do anything you want! You're ablaze in beauty! Yes. Yes. Yes.Such a great rendering of The Lord's Prayer. Did you notice our closing to all our prayers for Sound Mind Set? … As above, so below. … This is where that comes from. As above, so below is our goal for life.Let's pray together: “Heavenly Father, I use Jesus' words today to close in prayer … Our Father in Heaven, reveal who you are. Set the world right; Do what's best. Keep us alive with three square meals. Keep us forgiven with you and forgiving others. Keep us safe from ourselves and the Devil. You're in charge! You can do anything you want! You're ablaze in beauty! Yes. Yes. Yes. … As above, so below.”

In this episode, I invite us into a guided time of imaginative prayer — a contemplative practice rooted in the early church mothers and fathers that helps us encounter God in a personal, embodied way. Together, we step into the Garden of Gethsemane with Jesus on the night before His crucifixion. As we enter this scene, we slow down, engage our senses, and notice what stirs within us as we witness Jesus' honesty, sorrow, and surrender before the Father. I hope you'll join me as we walk onto the scene of Matthew 26:36-42 and ask the Spirit to speak to us through this story.

On the Lord's Prayer (Matthew 6:9-15)

Mr. Brock McNaughton talks about how building a firm foundation starts with looking at Christ, including 1) Reading the Bible (Matthew 4:1-11), 2) Prayer (Matthew 26:36-46), 3) Fellowship (Acts 2:42-47), 4) The Shaken Foundation: The story of Job (Job 38:4-7, 42:1-17). This episode of the Evangel Houghton podcast is a Sunday message from Evangel Community Church, Houghton, Michigan, December 28, 2025.

As we continue our sermon series, "Teach Us to Pray, take a listen as Pastor John teaches us how to make requests of God.

This episode in the sermon series, "Teach Us to Pray", provides instruction on how we should respond to God in prayer, by repenting those things not aligned with Jesus; accepting God's will and confessing our struggles.

Jesus went through temptations, none greater than when he went to the cross in perfect submission to the Father. And from this place of praying, Jesus encouraged and challenged his disciples to watch and pray so that they do not fall into temptation. Because Jesus suffered when he was tempted, he is able to help those whose are being tempted. If hard times have not come to you yet, they will someday. Build on the foundation of Christ.

In this message, Pastor Brandon unpacks the true meaning of the Lord's Prayer from a powerful Jewish perspective—revealing its depth as a model for daily prayer and its prophetic connection to the coming Kingdom of God. Jesus taught that prayer was never meant to be a performance, but a private conversation with our Father. Through this teaching, we see how genuine prayer transforms character, develops faith, and prepares believers for eternal reward at the Bema Seat of Christ. From "hallowing God's name" to "Your kingdom come, Your will be done," this study brings clarity to what Messiah intended—showing that the Lord's Prayer is both a personal guide and an eschatological cry for the day when Christ will reign from Jerusalem. Watch as Pastor Brandon exposes hypocrisy in prayer, addresses pagan repetition, and calls believers back to intimate, faith-filled communication with God.

In this episode of How to Study the Bible, Nicole explores what it truly means to pray for others. Whether it’s praying for someone you love or for someone who frustrates you, Scripture gives us clear direction. Nicole walks through Matthew 5:44, Matthew 6:9–13, and John 17:20–23 to show how Jesus teaches us to pray—for enemies, for loved ones, and for the unity of all believers. Along the way, she offers a framework that helps us move beyond vague or self-centered prayers into bold, confident intercession that aligns with God’s will.

Welcome to the Daily Disciple Podcast. As daily disciples, we seek to adore and follow Jesus, our teacher, into the abundant life that he offers. Because we find Jesus irresistible, fascinating, and incredibly practical, we want to be students of his scripture. Today's episode is found in Matthew 6.

This passage explores the teaching of Jesus on prayer, using the account of the cursed fig tree as the backdrop. When the disciples marvel at the tree's sudden withering, Jesus seizes the moment—just days before His crucifixion—to emphasize the necessity of prayer once He is no longer with them. The message highlights five key elements of powerful and effective prayer: remembering what God has already done, trusting His character and will, believing without doubt, asking boldly in alignment with His purposes, and forgiving others. Through scripture, personal stories, and church experiences, the teaching shows that prayer is not about manipulating God but about aligning with His will, trusting His power, and keeping hearts free from bitterness so that His purposes can be fulfilled.

SCRIPTURE: Matthew 6:9 / Luke 11:1-2SHOW NOTES: For encouragement on your spiritual journey, we invite you to visit our ministry website, Discover God's Truth, where you can access additional resources to enrich your Walk with God. Prayer is a vital part of our Christian life. We communicate with our Heavenly Father and seek His wisdom, guidance, and direction. Jesus' disciples traveled with Him for three years. They listened to His teachings, witnessed His miracles, and heard Him pray. Many times, He would go off to pray in the evening or early morning hours. In today's lesson, the disciples ask Jesus to teach them how to pray. He responds with the prayer we often call The Lord's Prayer (Matthew 6:9-15) or The Disciples' Prayer (Luke 11:2-4). This prayer is the example or model Jesus gave to His disciples. 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.”He said to them, “When you pray, say: ‘Father, hallowed be Your name.'” Luke 11:1-2 God's "name" reflects His nature. Jesus called God His Father. We also call Him our Heavenly Father to give Him glory and praise. "But now you must be holy in everything you do, just as God who chose you is holy." 1 Peter 1:15 SONG: "Song of the Saints" - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NmrbS8pI6HU&list=RDNmrbS8pI6HU&start_radio=1
