The Lord’s Prayer, is the prayer that is such universally known and respected piece of literature. All over, around the world, the Lord’s Prayer is most recited and respected as well. It is the prayer that was given by Jesus Christ to His own disciples when they asked Him for instructions about how they should pray.

This prayer is recited verbatim and it contains principles that can guide believers as we pray for everything from an unsaved family member to God’s miraculous provision for our lives. To better understand Lord’s Prayer, start with the first sentence and go part by part asking God to show you to start applying that to your prayer life and daily life.

What matters is how frequently you pray. God wants you to pray often. Prayer has for become a priority, not something we fit in whenever we’ve time. Even though prayer has many forms and several purposes, at it is most basic, it’s simply a conversation between God and you. You may recite a prayer such as the Lord’s Prayer or you’ll be able to speak to God in a really free and natural manner. You can pray independently or as a group. You may pray out loud, silently in mind, or with paper and pen. You can pray by sing a worship song, or reading a Psalm.

God will always hear you regardless of what form your prayer takes. As you could speak with your family and friends about a wide range of topics, it is possible to speak to God about whatever. As an example, you may ask God to assist you pass an examination, thank him for your mates, confess that you was insensitive to your wife or remark on how hard your job is getting. Any subject that’s important to you or significant to God is appropriate. Some people prefer to be formal members and just pray when they’re kneeling with their eyes closed.

Others will pray from the shower, in the vehicle or wherever they happen to be. There’s no wrong or right way to pray so long as it is sincere. When you are praying, God deserves to have your full attention, so if you will need to find a quiet location to be able to do that, then you need to do. And on the flip side, if you’re able to focus on God while sitting at the middle of a crowded canteen time of lunch, then that’s perfectly acceptable also. If you are ever in the position that you would like to pray, but do not know exactly what to say, you may always recite the Lord’s prayer found at Matthew 6: 9-13.

Another approach is for find one of the Psalms that reflects what you are feeling or what you would like to say to God. You may recite it our loud for the Lord, or read in silently while contemplating God’s presence. What matters most is how frequently you pray. God wants to spend some time with you! You become full of God’s love and closeness and you may want to pray increasingly more. The more your pray, the more you may want to pray until eventually, you’re spending time with God in all that your do. In 1 Thessalonians 5: 17, Paul tells us for Pray without ceasing. Paul doesn’t mean that we need to become on our knees at earnest prayer at every moment of our lives.

Clearly, we will need to work, to eat and also to sleep.

Whatever you do, make prayer a priority and as spiritual discipline and certainly us the Lord’s Prayer as a guide in the ways you see it best fit for your situation.
