One of the neglected pieces of the Lord’s Prayer is the fact that this prayer is a community prayer. Because of this, prayer is not just something we do on our own, for ourselves. As a church, a people and place, we are invited to pray for one another. In this message we will seek to consider who is praying for us and how we can be praying for other people.
The back half of the Lord’s Prayer reveals to us the simple task of asking God when we pray. Asking is a good, normal, essential piece to our relationship with Jesus. Today we wrestled with why we don’t ask, and, the reality that God is truly listening to and answering our prayers.
This week we continue our look at the Lord's Prayer in Matthew 6 where we'll think about what it means to pray that God's name be hallowed.
