The Lord's Prayer - Intro
from Deliverance on SermonAudio Hosted by Brad Jordan
The Lord's Prayer begins in a place that should arrest our attention. Before Christ teaches us to ask for bread, forgiveness, or deliverance, He teaches us how to come and what must come first. We come to God as "Our Father," but only because Christ has brought us near. And when we come, the first request on our lips is not about our comfort, our plans, or our needs. It is, "Hallowed be Your name." That petition exposes the order of our hearts. Do we truly desire God's glory above our own? Do our lives agree with the prayer we speak? In Matthew 6:9, Christ gives us more than words to repeat; He gives us a pattern that reveals who God is, who we are in Him, and what should govern the life of every believer: access to the Father through the Son and a life ordered toward His glory.
