"Our Father in Heaven hallowed be your name"
It's amazing that we get to sit at the feet of God the Father because of Jesus and pray to Him. Remember we get to speak freely to the Father, but we should always do so with a respect and awe of who He is.
"Our Father" He is not just my father or your Father, the prayer does not begin with "My Father" it's our. He is the creator of all we are all apart of the family of God! We all share one heavenly Father.
"Hallowed be your name" Think about the passage we read in Isaiah 6 and how he described the throne of God. Jesus is your friend and wants to be apart of every aspect of your life, BUT He is not your homeboy! He is God so give Him the proper place in your life. The prayer says "hallowed" is the name of God! How many of your friends have a hallowed name? There is only one God and one hallowed name and that's the name of our incredible creator! Hallowed is the name of the Father, Son and Spirit!
Spend some time talking and listening to God BECAUSE you can!!!!!!
It's gonna be a great journey studying prayer! We will continue to look at the precious prayer of our Lord Jesus and in the process we will learn as much as we can about prayer.
The Lord's Prayer is in Matthew 6:5-15
I love you!
