Praying with Jesus: United with Christ through Prayer | The Sermon on the Mount

The Sermon on the Mount, a sermon series focused on Living In the Kingdom. This sermon is given by  Rev. Dr. Mika Edmondson, based on Matthew 6:7-10. We will learn that Jesus teaches that true prayer begins not with anxiety, performance, or manipulation, but with confidence in the Father’s willing love. In the Lord’s Prayer, Jesus invites us into His own relationship with the Father- showing us that prayer is not overcoming God’s reluctance but resting in His willingness. As we pray, God transforms us so that His name is honored in our lives, His kingdom advances through us, and His will shapes the world around us. Through Jesus, we pray as beloved children, joining God’s mission to renew all things.
