Jesus was concerned about fake religion, so He instructed His disciples not to use religious activities to look good in public. He also taught them how to pray and gave them this simple model of prayer.
Effective prayer is not magic; it’s not about speaking the right string of words or using the correct formula.
Instead, it’s about communicating on a heart-to-heart level with the God of the universe.
He gave them a simple model of prayer that includes honoring God as our Father and praying for His coming kingdom. The prayer closes with acknowledgment of God as King of all.
Jesus stressed in the words that immediately follow the prayer
https://righteous-reminders.com Be Encouraged by this Quick, Righteous Reminder. Our flesh directs us to rely on what we can do to cope and deal with life. It encourages us to depend on ourselves. The Spirit directs us to rely on what God has done, to cope and deal with life. It encourages us to depend on God. These two are in opposition to each other. Galatians 5:17 says, For the desire of the flesh is against the Spirit, and the Spirit against the flesh; for these are in opposition to one another, in order to keep you from doing whatever you want. The mind, set on the Spirit is life and peace. Get notified when a New Reminder is posted. https://righteous-reminders.com/get-notified/
