The Lord's Prayer

"Our father which art in heaven, hallowed be your name. Your kingdom come. Your will be done on earth as it is on 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 yours is the Kingdom, and the power and the glory. Forever. A-Men." Jesus disciples asked him to teach them how to pray. As John the Baptist taught his disciples how to. And Jesus answered and taught them his special Prayer. Commentary by Roxanne Lea Dubarry "Our father which art in heaven." Simply means acknowledgement our heavenly father is residing in heaven. "Hallowed by your name." It means God's name is holy and worthy Of worshipful honor and praise. How would we like it if people Used our name for a curse or a swear word? How would we like it if people blasphemed our name? Of course not and God does not appreciate it either! "Your will be done on earth as it is in heaven." God's will is being perfectly done in heaven, And will be on earth. When the sinful nature Of man is no longer in question. God's perfect Will be accomphlished by him. "Give this day our daily bread." Bread is the staff of life and part of our daily provisions. It also means our daily wants, needs, and desires. And to be thankful for his provisions. "And to forgive us our debts as we forgive our debtors." When we are willing to forgive others, God will forgive us. "And lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil." God can deliver us from temptation created by the devil. "For yours is the kingdom, and the power and the glory forever." God's kingdom is on heaven and earth. He alone is worthy of power and glory forever. A-Men. Amen means completion and agereement. Love in Christ Jesus! Roxanne Lea Dubarry Roxy Lea 1954 Roxy 1954/ October Country June 26, 2020
