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 debts, as we forgive our debtors. And lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil; for thine is the kingdom, and the power, and the glory. for ever. Amen.
Matthew 6:5-13
Today we will begin a little series on The Lord's Prayer.
In this prayer there are seven petitions.
"Let us briefly recount the seven petitions in this prayer.
'Hallowed by thy name.' Hallowed means 'sacred.' We are to keep it sacred and use it reverently. Without reverence there can be no true worship. There must be reverence in the church, reverence in the soul, reverence at the very thought of God, if we are to receive any benefit from prayer. Reverence is of prime importance and is rightly the first petition."
