A Short Study of the Lord's Prayer Fiona Ullyatt

Do we ever stop and think about what we are really saying to God, or do we pray monotonously every day with no depth or feeling, because we are on a spiritual low, or do we take time to think what we are really saying to God in our prayers and petitions to Him? In today's climate of our busy lives, it's hard sometimes to sit down for five minutes and have our quiet time with God. The more time we spend praying and reading the Bible, the more time we want to spend with the Lord. We can start to teach our children from an early age to pray to the Lord. My son at the age of 4 could recite the Lord's Prayer from start to finish without any interruptions. Children are the next generation of warriors for Christ. We need to encourage them to pray not just the Lord's Prayer but any prayer. Very often even the Lord's Prayer becomes a ritual for some. This study book was written from the different ideas set out in our own fellowship group. It can be used for individual study or group study. Scripture references are provided, taken from the New International Version of the Holy Bible. Before reading this study, ask the Lord to open your heart to Him in a fresh and new way each day.
