Matthew 6:9-15

The Lord's Prayer

1 min

Therefore, when you pray, do it this way.
Our Father who is in the skies, may your name be recognized as holy.
May your kingdom come, and may your will be done as it is in the skies, so also on the land.
Our daily provision of bread, give to us today.
And forgive us our debts, just as we also have forgiven those indebted to us.
And don't lead us to be tested, but deliver us from the evil one.
For if you forgive people their transgressions, your Father in the skies will also forgive you.
But if you will not forgive people, then neither will your Father forgive your transgressions.

HIGHLIGHT

For thousands of years, Jewish people have practiced a daily prayer called the Kaddish. The Kaddish is similar to the Lord’s Prayer, showing us that Jesus didn’t invent a new prayer to teach his disciples but adapted an existing one.

Invite your friends and family to meditate on the teachings of Jesus together.
