Description
PRAYER is SHARING and FELLOWSHIPPING with God (Matthew 6:9). It is SURRENDERING to God (v. 9). The believer surrenders himself and his time to God. There is no such thing as prayer without a person and time. A person must submit himself to God before he wills to pray, and even then he must take the time to pray. PRAYER is REQUESTING and PLEADING with God (v. 10). It is demonstrating one's need and dependence upon God. It is pouring out one's heart in need and trusting God to meet one's need. PRAYER is ACKNOWLEDGING and PRAISING God (vv. 9-10,13). It is acknowledging God as the Sovereign and Majestic LORD to whom belongs the Kingdom, the power, and the glory, forever. The disciples of JESUS observed HIS LIFESTYLE of PRAYER. That is why they said, "LORD, TEACH US TO PRAY" (Luke 11:1). If we learn what they learned, we will be able to do the things JESUS did. Let's look now at what JESUS taught His disciples about PRAYER.
