Chapter 6: Using the model pray to intercede
Text: Matt 6:9-13
But I be sharing specially in verse 11 which says; Give us this day our daily bread.The words “this day” and “daily” here indicate that the requests of this prayer are good and proper ones to make every day, and not just occasionally in church. The plural word our indicates that these requests are appropriate for two or more members of a family, or a number of believers, to make together. Perhaps it indicates also that an individual who privately prays alone the lines of this prayer (and this is surely a good thing to do) is to think of others along with himself – his or her family, or friends, or church, or an even wider circle of believers.
Here we notice that the model prayer teaches us not to pray only for ourselves but for others too.
Thank you
These model of prayers that Jesus gave to his disciples is a best example of intercession. We must pray for the needs of others as well as our own needs…
