When Jesus taught the disciples to pray He gave us a way to align our hearts with His. Join us this Sunday as we practice praying together. You can do this on your own or with a group.

This week we commence a new sermon series looking at the Lord's Prayer. Prayer is the distinct privilege and joy of the Christian, yet it is so often neglected. We hope this series encourages us and equips us to pray.

Jesus teaches his disciples what to pray to a loving heavenly Father.

Duration: 70 mins • Source: Ark of Grace Ministries "The fear of the Lord is the beginning of wisdom." This document summarizes Amanda Grace's broadcast following her attendance at the National Day of Prayer at the White House. It covers a significant prophetic word regarding political and global shakings, the symbolic passing of a prominent Christian leader, and a call for the Church to shift its spiritual warfare strategy. Detailed Summary The White House Visit and National Day of Prayer Amanda Grace and her husband Chris attended the National Day of Prayer at the White House, an event hosted by the Office of Faith. The gathering included a diverse array of religious representatives, including Christians, Jews, Muslims, and Monks. Despite the varied audience, Amanda highlighted the bold witness of Jesus Christ by speakers such as Secretary Scott Turner and Dr. Alveda King. She noted a heavy spiritual atmosphere, which she attributed to the upcoming "rededication" of the nation and the intense spiritual warfare surrounding the current administration and the upcoming midterms. During the visit, she met with staff from the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) and former Congressman Lee Zeldin, noting that many believers are positioned in high-ranking, supportive roles within the Cabinet that the mainstream media fails to report. The Prophetic Significance of Joni Lamb's Passing A central theme of the broadcast was the passing of Joni Lamb, head of Daystar, on the National Day of Prayer. Amanda pointed out the prophetic symbolism: Joni was on the cusp of turning 66 in the year 2026, mirroring the 66 books of the Bible. She interpreted the "passing of the lamb" on this specific day as a sobering warning to the Church to "wake up and straighten up." She urged the body of Christ to intercede for the Lamb family during what she described as their "Ziklag moment"—a time of great loss that requires seeking the Lord for the strength to pursue and recover. Prophetic Outlook: The Great Uncovering Political Purge Exposure of "dirty deals" and alliances in Congress and the GOP. Global Shifting Leadership overthrows in Europe; Beijing's radar and banking interference caught. Media Sifting Criminal treachery exposed in major networks; high-level resignations. Prophetic Word: National and Global Reckoning Amanda released a five-page prophetic word detailing a season of "purging and cleansing." Key highlights include: US Governance: A "shock to the system" of Congress as hidden alliances between parties are exposed. The Supreme Court and various Governors will face a "moneychanger" moment where tables are overturned. International Conflict: A reckoning for Europe where leaders will be overthrown. Putin's secret agreements will be revealed, and Beijing will be caught in subversive military and intelligence espionage. Tech and Media: Silicon Valley will suffer "crippling blows," and names that have subverted the public for decades will be smeared. Major media networks (specifically mentioning "the eye" and "the peacock") will face internal civil war and criminal exposure. Middle East: A "changing of the guard" in Israel and the Middle East, with warnings of assassination attempts within the Saudi Royal Family and the UAE. A Call to "Warfare Prayer" Amanda concluded with a stern exhortation regarding the Church's prayer life. She criticized "cotton candy" or "superficial" prayers, arguing that the Church is in a state of sophisticated spiritual warfare that requires forceful, scripture-based language. She encouraged believers to pray for the "destruction of the flesh so the soul can be saved" when dealing with rebellion, rather than offering generic blessings. This shift is necessary to combat the "apex predators" of the demonic realm that seek to sabotage God's plan for the nation. The Prayer Pivot Old Approach Warfare Approach "Lord, please bless them." "Lord, humble them and break the rebellion." Superficial/Semantics Precision and Intensity (Scripture-based) Passive hope Dismantling demonic conspiracies Key Data Symbolic Numbers: Joni Lamb passed away on the cusp of her 66th birthday in the year 2026, matching the 66 books of the Bible. Charitable Impact: Through the "Mission Christ Love" initiative and ministry sponsors, $4,000 was provided to purchase a vehicle for a homeless man in Miami. To-Do / Next Steps Intercede for the Lamb Family: Pray for Jonathan and Suzie Lamb as they navigate the sudden loss of their mother and the future of Daystar. Pray for National Protection: Specifically intercede for Melania Trump against a "sophisticated plot to steal" and for the safety of the Saudi Royal Family. Sound the Alarm on Leadership Traps: Pray that US leadership recognizes the "temptation" and "trap" set by the enemy following the nation's rededication to avoid recession and woe. Daily Spiritual Maintenance: Believers are encouraged to "armor up" daily using Ephesians 6, Psalm 91, and the Lord's Prayer (Matthew 6). Conclusion The National Day of Prayer 2026 serves as a pivotal marker for both the United States and the global Church. Amanda Grace's message emphasizes that while a "great uncovering" of corruption is underway across politics, tech, and media, the Church must abandon passive traditions in favor of disciplined, authoritative prayer to secure the nation's future and navigate the coming shakings.

New Life Church, together with believers around the world, are engaging in a season of prayer and fasting from May 1-21, 2026.  The focus of our prayers stems from understanding Jesus' exhortation in Matthew 9:36-38. We are asking the ‘Lord of the Harvest' to send labourers into the harvest fields of Israel.  We are extending this to include the Middle East.   We understand that this is a critical moment to partner with what God has promised to do for the people and land of Israel particularly. We invite you to join us in praying the following daily prayer.

Answered prayer isn't about getting everything you want—it's about aligning your belief, your heart, and your requests with God's will. When we truly trust Him, come through Jesus, and pray for what He already desires—salvation and transformation—prayer shifts from wishful asking to powerful partnership with God.

Teach Us To Pray — “Father In Heaven” Introduction: Why We Need to Learn to Pray Coleton begins with a simple but relatable picture: his son Teddy not enjoying golf because he doesn't know how to play. “I'd enjoy it more if I knew how to hit it.” That insight becomes the doorway into the entire series—many people don't enjoy prayer because they don't know how to do it. The goal of this teaching is not just to inform people about prayer, but to help them experience joy in it. Coleton introduces the Lord's Prayer (Matthew 6:9–13) as the foundation—a short, 31-word prayer in its original language, yet deep enough to shape a lifetime of communion with God. Key Quote: “The Lord's prayer is simple enough to be memorized by small children and yet profound enough to sustain a whole lifetime of prayer.” — Justin Welby Coleton explains that this prayer is both: A pattern (Matthew: “pray like this”) A prayer to be repeated (Luke 11:2: “when you pray, say…”) Key Quote: “We can either use each phrase as a handrail… or pray exactly these words thoughtfully.” — Frederick Dale Bruner This series will walk through the prayer line by line, beginning with the first phrase: “Our Father in heaven.” 1. Remember Who You're Talking To (Matthew 6:9) Coleton emphasizes that Jesus begins prayer by reshaping our understanding of God. Before anything else, we must remember: we are speaking to a Father. A Radical Shift in Prayer Jesus adapts a traditional Jewish prayer (the Kaddish), which begins by magnifying God's name—but instead of starting there, Jesus begins with relationship: Father. This is intentional. Jesus is not removing God's holiness—He is making Him personally accessible. Key Quote: “Pray to God more intimately than you think you're allowed.” — Tyler Staton The word Abba reflects deep closeness—not childish, but deeply personal. Coleton illustrates this with his son calling him “pop-pop”—a name that reflects relationship, not just title. Why This Matters How we perceive God determines how we pray: If we think He's angry → we become guarded If we think He's disappointed → we withdraw If we think He's distant → we disengage Key Quote: “Most people's biggest problem with prayer is God Himself… scowling, perpetually disapproving…” — Pete Greig Jesus corrects this: you are approaching the safest, most loving presence you've ever known. If we don't start here, we won't pray freely, consistently, or joyfully. 2. Because He is Father — It Shapes How We Talk to God Coleton addresses a common barrier: “I don't know what to say.” Through a deeply personal story about his son's speech delay, he reveals a powerful truth: a father doesn't care how polished the words are—he just wants to hear his child's voice. That becomes the central image Jesus wants us to carry into prayer. Freedom Over Formula While tools like A.C.T.S. or P.R.A.Y. can help, Coleton warns against turning prayer into a rigid system. We don't talk to people we love using formulas—so why would we do that with God? Prayer is meant to be: Natural Relational Honest Free You can: Talk about your day Share your highs and lows Express frustration or confusion Sit in silence Even biblical examples support this: The Psalms are full of raw emotion Job questions and wrestles with God Coleton makes a key distinction: Complaining to God is prayer Complaining about God is grumbling God desires the first. 3. Because He is Father — It Shapes What We Expect from God Coleton then shifts from how we speak to what we expect. Expectation #1: We Should Expect More Scripture: “How much more will your Father in heaven give good gifts to those who ask him!” — Matthew 7:9–11 Jesus teaches that God's generosity surpasses even the best human parents. Coleton challenges a common hesitation: feeling guilty for asking God for things. Many people hold back because they think their needs are too small or too selfish. But a loving father doesn't shame his child for asking. He shares a powerful story of rock climbing with his dad—choosing independence over accepting help. Instead of pride, it brought hurt. Why? Because relationship invites dependence. Key Quote: “Jesus is trying to bring us… to the Father with hands out.” — C.H. Dodd Not asking isn't humility—it can actually be distance. Expectation #2: We Should Expect “No” A good Father doesn't give everything His children ask for. God's “no” is not rejection—it is protection and love. He sees what we don't He knows what will harm or shape us He gives both yes and no as gifts Coleton reminds us: don't let unanswered prayers convince you God doesn't care. Sometimes His refusal is His deeper kindness. 4. Practicing Prayer as Children of the Father Coleton ends with practical application: What does it actually look like to pray this way? You can: Pray the Lord's Prayer word-for-word Or use it as a starting point But most importantly, relate to God as a Father. Practical Ways to Pray Talk to Him about your day (even though He already knows) Share what you're thinking and feeling Bring your worries and desires Celebrate what's good and process what's hard Sit quietly with Him Even fall asleep while talking to Him Coleton uses the image of his son talking as he falls asleep—what some might feel is “bad prayer,” a father sees as a gift. That's how God sees you. Key Quote: “What comes into our minds when we think about God is the most important thing about us.” — A.W. Tozer If we see Him as Father, we will move toward Him—not away. Conclusion Coleton brings the message full circle: prayer begins not with technique, but with identity and relationship. When Jesus teaches us to pray “Our Father,” He is inviting us into: Freedom instead of fear Relationship instead of ritual Trust instead of hesitation God is not waiting for perfect prayers—He is waiting for His children. Discipleship Group Questions When you think about God, what is your immediate emotional response—and how does that affect your prayer life? Why do you think Jesus chose to begin prayer with “Father” instead of focusing first on God's holiness or power? What tends to hold you back from praying honestly and freely with God? Which is harder for you to accept: that God wants to give you more, or that He lovingly says “no”? Why? What is one practical way you can begin relating to God more like a Father this week? Culture of Gospel Share this with someone in your life who doesn't know Jesus What if God isn't distant or disappointed in you—but actually wants a real relationship with you like a loving Father who enjoys hearing your voice? Jesus teaches that prayer isn't about getting it right—it's about coming home to Someone who already wants you.

Associate Pastor Dave Morely continues the mini series Pray and delivers a message from Matthew 6:9-13. Listen in as he shares with us the mystery and majesty of prayer.

Learning to Pray Introduction: Coleton begins by sharing personally that 10 years ago he didn't know how to pray—and honestly didn't think it mattered. But everything shifted when he encountered people who genuinely loved prayer and believed this simple truth: People who pray will experience more from God and with God than people who don't. That statement reframed everything. Coleton points out that prayer is not something we naturally know how to do—it must be learned. But the encouraging truth is: it can be learned. He highlights something powerful from the Gospels: the disciples never asked Jesus to teach them how to preach, perform miracles, or lead—but they did ask Him to teach them how to pray. Why? Because they saw something in Jesus' relationship with the Father that they wanted. Over the past 10 years, Coleton shares that he has experienced more of God than in the previous 29 years of his life—and he attributes that largely to learning to pray. Quote: “The greatest undiscovered area in the resources of God is in the place of prayer… you cannot estimate the power of prayer. Prayer is as vast as God because God is behind it.” — Leonard Ravenhill This sets up the main idea: Jesus wants to teach us how to pray, and in doing so, invite us into a deeper experience with God. 1. God Wants to Actually Meet with You Coleton's first point is simple but profound: Prayer is about relationship, not performance. Main Idea God is not distant or disinterested—He is eager to meet with you anytime you intentionally turn your attention toward Him. Bible Passage “But when you pray, go into your room, close the door and pray to your Father, who is unseen…” — Matthew 6:6 Coleton explains that Jesus is not giving a rigid rule about location but emphasizing intentionality. The “room” and “closed door” represent focused, personal connection. Key Insight: God gives His attention to any place of intention. Any moment you intentionally turn toward God—whether in a quiet room, your car, during chores, or even a quick pause in a stressful meeting—He meets you there. Coleton illustrates this with real-life examples, including stepping away during a difficult meeting just to “steal a moment” with God. Even a few seconds becomes sacred when it's intentional. He also shares the story of Susanna Wesley, who used her apron over her head as a “prayer closet” while raising 19 children—showing that the “secret place” is less about location and more about focus. Quote: “The Father has a special affinity for ‘the secret place'… He is continuously watching there.” — Frederick Dale Bruner Takeaway You don't have to go somewhere special to meet with God. Any place becomes sacred when you choose to seek Him. 2. Your Prayers Can Be Very Short The second thing Jesus teaches is deeply freeing: Prayer does not need to be long to be effective. Bible Passage “And when you pray, do not keep on babbling like pagans…” — Matthew 6:7–8 Main Idea You don't have to earn God's attention with long, impressive prayers—you already have it. Coleton contrasts Jesus' teaching with pagan beliefs of the time, where people thought they had to “fatigue the gods” with long prayers to be heard. Quote: “The pagan rule to get your prayer heard is ‘much.'” — Frederick Dale Bruner Jesus completely dismantles this idea. God is not reluctant—He is a loving Father who is already attentive. Key Insight Because God already hears you, prayer can be as simple as: “Help.” “Thank you.” “I'm sorry.” “I need you.” Coleton shares a relatable analogy: if every phone call with a friend required an hour, you'd hesitate to answer—but if it could be brief, you'd engage more often. Prayer works the same way. When we realize prayer doesn't require long stretches of time, we actually pray more. Quote: “It is a relief to know that the Father… is not a reluctant listener.” — Frederick Dale Bruner “Much prayer is not the mediator to God; Jesus is.” Coleton also addresses persistence in prayer, clarifying: Persistence is powerful But persistence is not required to be heard We persist because we are heard—not to be heard. Takeaway You always have God's attention. Pray anytime, with whatever you have. 3. He Knows How to Help You the Most The third truth Jesus gives is deeply comforting: God knows exactly what you need. Bible Passage “Your Father knows what you need before you ask him.” — Matthew 6:8 Main Idea God's knowledge of your needs is not a reason to stop praying—it's the reason you should run to Him. Coleton explains that we are drawn to people who understand us without needing long explanations. He shares a powerful story about his sister, who struggled to find comfort after losing her husband because people cared—but didn't truly understand what she needed. Everything changed when she met others who had experienced the same loss. They understood—and because they understood, they could actually help. That's who God is. He doesn't just care—He understands. Key Insight Because God knows what you need: He knows how to help you He is the best person to go to You can trust Him even when you don't know what to ask for This is why Jesus later teaches us to pray for “daily bread”—a simple, even vague request—because God already knows what's behind the request. Takeaway You don't have to figure everything out before you pray. Go to the One who already knows—and knows how to help. Application: How to Respond Coleton closes with clear, practical steps: 1. Choose intentional moments with God Set aside time—but also take advantage of small, everyday moments to turn your attention toward Him. 2. Pray what you've got Don't overthink it. Don't try to impress God. Just talk. 3. Remind yourself who God is He is attentive, loving, and fully aware of your needs. Pray with confidence in His character. Final Encouragement People who pray will experience more from God and with God than people who don't. So start simple: “Lord, I need You.” Discipleship Group Questions What has your personal experience with prayer been like, and how has this message challenged or encouraged that? What keeps you from intentionally creating space to meet with God, and how can you overcome that this week? How does knowing that God already has your attention change the way you approach prayer? Why do you think short, simple prayers might actually lead to a more consistent prayer life? In what area of your life do you most need to trust that God already knows what you need and can help you? Culture of Gospel Share this with someone in your life who doesn't know Jesus What if God isn't distant or waiting for you to prove yourself—but is actually a loving Father who already knows you, hears you, and wants to meet with you anytime you reach out?

The Lord's Prayer | Matthew 6:13-15 | Cody Cline

Title: The Upside Down Spiritual LifeSpeaker: Nate HoldridgeOverview: In this week's Sunday sermon from Matthew 6:7–15, Pastor Nate Holdridge walks through one of the most familiar passages in all of Scripture—the Lord's Prayer. Rather than treating it as a rote recitation, we'll unpack it as a template for a rich, structured prayer life: compact enough to pray in a minute, expansive enough to carry a lifetime of conversation with God. Working through the two halves of the prayer, we explore what it means to begin with the Father's honor, rule, and will before turning to our own needs for provision, forgiveness, and daily leadership. If your prayer life has grown mechanical, rushed, or shallow, this message is an invitation back to the closet and back to the Father who is already waiting.Link to Sermon NotesLink to Discussion Questions

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

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

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.
