1. Our Father who art in Heaven,
2. Hallowed be Thy name.
3. Thy kingdom come, Thy will be done.
4. On earth as in heaven.
5. Give us this day our daily bread,
6. Forgive us our trespasses, as we forgive those who trespass against us.
7. Lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil.
8. For thine is the kingdom, the power & the glory, now & forever.
Jesus himself gave us insights into the right prayer elements.
1 We acknowledge God as our spiritual Father.
2 We praise Him/His name/His person
3/4 We look forward to His kingdom & acknowledge His will reigns supreme on earth & in heaven.
5. We ask for physical necessities for today. (not tomorrow or next week. Jesus always taught not to worry for the future)
6. We seek forgiveness & to forgive others (we pray for others, especially those who have hurt us)
7. We acknowledge God does both good & evil. He can lead us into temptation to sin and can also deliver us from sin. We can only ask for His tender loving kindness & tender mercies when dealing with us according to His will.
8. In closing, we praise Him again, for now & for the aeons to come.
Blessings,
