Matthew 6:7

play chapter / study / save / / memorize

The Lord's Prayer
5“And when you pray, you must not be like the hypocrites. For they love to stand and pray in the synagogues and at the street corners, that they may be seen by others. Truly, I say to you, they have received their reward.6But when you pray, go into your room and shut the door and pray to your Father who is in secret. And your Father who sees in secret will reward you.
7“And when you pray, do not heap up empty phrases as the Gentiles do, for they think that they will be heard for their many words.
8Do not be like them, for your Father knows what you need before you ask him.9Pray then like this:
“Our Father in heaven,
hallowed be your name.Or Let your name be kept holy, or Let your name be treated with reverence

10Your kingdom come,
your will be done,Or Let your kingdom come, let your will be done
on earth as it is in heaven.

11Give us this day our daily bread,Or our bread for tomorrow

12and forgive us our debts,
as we also have forgiven our debtors.

13And lead us not into temptation,
but deliver us from evil.Or the evil one; some manuscripts add For yours is the kingdom and the power and the glory, forever. Amen

14For if you forgive others their trespasses, your heavenly Father will also forgive you,15but if you do not forgive others their trespasses, neither will your Father forgive your trespasses.

Prayer is meant to be a personal communication with God. There is no better way to turn off someone (even a close friend) then to constantly repeat the same thing over and over. God created us to commune with Him in dynamic fellowship. He created us with different personalities and strengths so that we would develop unique and individual relationships with Him. If you want to get closer to God and have Him "hear" you and respond, try praying like the Psalmist in the Old testament. These are divinely inspired prayers and supplications that are real examples of how this relationship with God can look like in real life.
