Simply as they are the four writers of the books of the New Testament that tell us of the life and teachings of Jesus Christ. As a result they deserve special respect.
The other reason is, of course, that they enable the poem "Matthew, Mark, Luke and John... bless the bed that I lay on" to rhyme!

This prayer in John is truly the "Lords Prayer". The prayer in Matthew 6:9-13 & Luke 11:2-4 was merely a pattern for prayer.

And then 17:20-26 is the Lord's prayer for all believers, and this prayer includes believers in this present day. Take the time to read this prayer very carefully as there is much to learn from it.

Where do you find the Lords prayer in the Bible?
The REAL "LORD's Prayer" in the Bible is found in John 17.The passage most people call the "Lord's Prayer" in Matthew 6:9-13 is really just a "prayer outline;" the basic elements that should go into a general prayer.But, in John's 17th chapter, Jesus lifts His eyes up to heaven and has a real heart-to-heart talk with His Father. In it, He prays and intercedes on behalf of His disciples... as well as:"...for all who will ever believe in Me because of their testimony. My prayer FOR ALL OF THEM is that THEY WILL BE ONE, JUST AS YOU AND I ARE ONE, Father - that just as YOU ARE IN ME and I AM IN YOU, so THEY WILL BE IN US, and the world will believe you sent Me... I IN THEM AND YOU IN ME, ALL BEING PERFECTED INTO ONE..." (John 17:20-23 NLT New Living Translation)Now, that's intercession!
