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

" 'But deliver us from evil.'
There is no strength in us to stand the trials that come to us from day to day. We need help; we need deliverance. Evil will overtake us, the evil one will gain the victory unless we get help from God. This prayer recognized our need of help and asks God for it. This is the last of the seven petitions. After this comes the closing statement ascribing power and glory to God."
Be sure to come back next week to see the conclusion! It's good - you won't want to miss it!
