What is the lords prayer?

Answer 1

The Lord’s Prayer, as given by Jesus Christ in the Sermon on the Mount, is found in The Bible at Matthew chapter 6, verses 9-13. The Lord's prayer brings out 1) the sanctification of God's name. “Our Father in the heavens, let your name be sanctified.” (Matthew 6:9) We read at Psalm 83:18, “You, whose name is Jehovah, you alone are the Most High over all the earth.” **2)**Praying for God’s Kingdom to come. “Let your kingdom come. Let your will take place, as in heaven, also upon earth.” (Matthew 6:10) 3) “Give us today our bread for this day.” (Matthew 6:11) In harmony with the Lord’s Prayer, we can pray in faith that God will provide for our daily needs. 4) “Forgive us our debts, as we also have forgiven our debtors.” (Matthew 6:12) If we forgive those who sin against us, we will please God and be in a position to benefit from his mercy. 5) “Do not bring us into temptation, but deliver us from the wicked one.” (Matthew 6:13) Jehovah does not abandon us to temptation or cause us to fall into sin. if we worship Jehovah according to his inspired Word, the Bible, he will deliver us by helping us to resist the Devil.

In this way, we too can pray for these things. (New World Translation of the Holy Scriptures)

Answer 2

The Lord's prayer is the final prophecy, that Jesus told us to pray for. " For God's kingdom to come as in heaven also on earth".

It means that one day when God decides, he is going to set up a kingdom ( government) that will never be destroyed and will crush and put an end to all humans' government, according to Daniel 2: 44

God's Kingdom will undo all the harm that millenniums of human rule have done. It will provide perfect health for everyone, peace and security that we all long for, meaningful work that will restore the lost paradise and a clean environment to live in.

Here are a few scriptures to consider: Revelation 19: 15, 17, 18; Proverbs 2: 22; Isaiah 33: 24; Revelation 21: 4 and so many more.

So the Lord's prayer is not a recitation that is to be ran over and over , it has a profound meaning for what our future holds.

Our Creator has promised to give us everlasting life here on earth. Many however, find it difficult to believe, and yet it has always been God's purpose and it has not changed.

When God created Adam, he had the choice between life and death, as Genesis 2: 17 confirmes, in these words. "But as for the tree of the knowledge of good and bad, you must not eat from it, for the day you eat from it you will certainly die."

Adam knew if he did not eat from the tree, he would not die. That command would have made no sense if Adam was meant to grow old and die anyway. Romans 5: 12 explains what we have inherited, which is our lost of perfection to live up to God's purpose.

Our reconciliation with God was possible due to the high price that was paid. " The ransom paid by Jesus Christ". Read Romans 3: 24

Read Romans 5: 10. To reconcilie means to bring back into harmony or cause to be friendly again. Our reconciliation with God is going to give us the possibility to possess the earth as promised in Psalm 37: 29 and live forever on it.

Answer 3

The actual model prayer (Lord's prayer) was given by Jesus at (Matthew 6:9-13)

There are two slightly different versions, here is the one used by most English churches (unless they use the Book of Common Prayer of 1662): Our father, in heaven;

Hallowed be thy name,

Your kingdom come,

Your will be done,

On Earth, as in Heaven,

Give us today our daily bread,

Forgive us our sins,

As we forgive those who sin against us.

Lead us not into temptation,

But deliver us from evil.

For you are the father, the son, and the Holy Spirit,

Now and forever, Amen.

This one is mostly used by the Americans and Canadians, and the Australians (and English churches that use the Book of Common Prayer of 1662) I believe; Our Father, which art in heaven,

Hallowed be thy name;

Thy kingdom come;

Thy will be done,

In earth as it is in heaven.

Give us this day our daily bread.

And forgive us our trespasses,

As we forgive them that trespass against us.

And lead us not into temptation;

But deliver us from evil.

For thine is the kingdom, the power, and the glory,

For ever and ever.

Amen.

Answer 4

Personally there is no way to tell if the lords prayer is the "most famous", however it is very popular. As well as the Serenity prayer which goes as follows:

God grand me the serenity to accept the things that I can not change

The courage to change the things that I can.

and the wisdom to know the difference.

God Bless and have a nice day!

Answer 5

The Lord's Prayer is a prayer that Jesus taught his disciples in the Bible, found in the book of Matthew 6:9-13 and Luke 11:2-4. It serves as a model for Christian prayer and includes phrases such as "Our Father who art in heaven, hallowed be thy name" and "Give us this day our daily bread."
