how to pray

SUMMARY: The subject of prayer is always important and relevant. In Luke 11 and Matthew 6, Jesus teaches his disciples how to pray. He emphasizes the importance of taking time to pray and making the most of that time. Jesus warns against praying with a sense of arrogance and using repetitive words as if to impress God. Instead, Jesus encourages simple conversation with God, and emphasizes that God already knows what we need before we even ask. The beauty of prayer lies in its simplicity and sincerity.

The speaker encourages simplicity in prayer, reminding listeners that even a simple statement like "Lord, I can't take it anymore" is a valid prayer. He emphasizes the importance of keeping prayer sincere and genuine, rather than trying to impress God with fancy language or requests. The speaker also suggests that prayer can take place at any time, in any setting, and encourages listeners to take intentional time to connect with God. He ends with a prayer for blessings and renewed strength for his listeners.


Today I would like to focus on something that has to do with the subject of prayer. And if you could go with me to the book of Luke, chapter 11, there is something that I would like to refer to here in this verse. I'm going to be in Luke, chapter 11 and in Matthew, chapter 6. And maybe you'll say, like, wow, the topic of the sentence is burnt as it were, but no, no, no; The subject of prayer is always vital, very important.

This does not go out of style or fashion. Luke, chapter 11, verse 1. I am reading the God speaks today edition, so you can follow me. I really like the version, God speaks today. It says, once, Jesus was praying in a place and when he finished one of his disciples said to him, 'Lord, could you teach us to pray as John taught his disciples,' and Jesus said to them, 'tell me when…' No, no, don't read the rest.
