Keep It Simple, Silly!

May 28, 2023 • Heath Watts

This message explores the power of prayer through the lens of the Lord's Prayer in Matthew 6. We're reminded that prayer isn't just about asking for things, but about aligning our hearts with God's will. The prayer begins with honoring God's name, recognizing His holiness and attributes. We're then called to surrender our will to God's kingdom, praying for His will to be done in our lives, families, and world. This act of surrender positions us to receive God's provision and protection. Importantly, we're challenged to forgive others as we seek God's forgiveness, highlighting the critical role of forgiveness in our spiritual lives. By following this prayer model, we can cultivate a deeper connection with God and live out His purposes more fully.
