THE LORD'S PRAYER

I cannot pray "OUR," if my faith has no room for others and their need.

I cannot pray "FATHER," if I do not demonstrate this relationship to God in
My daily living.

I cannot pray "WHO ART IN HEAVEN," if all of my interests and pursuits are
In earthly things.

I cannot pray "HALLOWED BE THY NAME," if I am not striving for God's help to
Be holy.

I cannot pray "THY KINGDOM COME," if I am unwilling to accept God's rule in
My life.

I cannot pray "THY WILL BE DONE," if I am unwilling or resentful of having
It in my life.

I cannot pray "IN EARTH AS IT IS IN HEAVEN," unless I am truly ready to give
Myself to God's service here and now.

I cannot pray "GIVE US THIS DAY OUR DAILY BREAD," without expending honest
Effort for it or if I would withhold from my neighbor the bread I receive.

I cannot pray "FORGIVE US OUR TRESPASSES AS WE FORGIVE THOSE WHO TRESPASS
AGAINST US," if I continue to harbor a grudge against anyone.

I cannot pray "LEAD US NOT INTO TEMPTATION," if I deliberately choose to
Remain in a situation where I am likely to be tempted.

I cannot pray "DELIVER US FROM EVIL," if I am not prepared to fight with my
Life and my prayer.

I cannot pray "THINE IS THE KINGDOM," if I am unwilling to obey the King.

I cannot pray "THINE IS THE POWER AND THE GLORY," if I am seeking power for
Myself and my own glory first.

I cannot pray 'FOREVER AND EVER," if I am too anxious about each day's
Affairs.

I cannot pray "AMEN," unless I honestly say "Not MY will, but THY will be
Done, so let it be.

"But when ye pray, use not vain repetitions, as the heathen do: for they
Think that they shall be heard for their much speaking. Be not ye therefore
Like unto them: for your heavenly Father knoweth what things ye have need of
Before ye ask Him. Matthew 6:7-8
