The Lord's Prayer - What does it Mean?

Scripture of the week: Luke 11: 1-13

Message: The Lord's Prayer. We recite it every Sunday. But have you ever stopped to think about what it means? Jesus taught it for the first time to his disciples when they asked him to teach them to pray and we are still repeating it today. Look at each line on its own and read a brief explanation below it. Think about what it is saying and talk about it with your family. It is a very special prayer and we must always remember how important it is to learn it, say it, and believe it.

OUR FATHER WHO ART IN HEAVEN

Our Father who is in heaven

HALLOWED BE THY NAME

Your name is holy

THY KINGDOM COME, THY WILL BE DONE

You have promised us eternal life in Your kingdom of heaven and

ON EARTH AS IT IS IN HEAVEN

If it is Your will, anything You can do in Heaven can be done here on earth

GIVE US THIS DAY OUR DAILY BREAD

Be with us each day and provide us what we need

AND FORGIVE US OUR TRESPASSES

Forgive us for our wrongdoing

AS WE FORGIVE THOSE WHO TRESPASS AGAINST US

And we promise to forgive others who do us wrong

AND LEAD US NOT INTO TEMPTATION

Help us to always do what is right and avoid being tempted by evil

BUT DELIVER US FROM EVIL

Keep us safe from Satan by stepping in when we are going astray

FOR THINE IS THE KINGDOM AND THE POWER AND THE GLORY FOREVER

You are our King, our leader and we will worship you forever

AMEN

So be it

Have a blessed week.
