God reveals Himself through our needs but we can’t experience the freedom of His Presence until we turn to Him with our needs. Many of us are turning to find freedom in our performance, popularity, and possessions and this leads us to emptiness. The big idea then is that we experience the freedom of God’s Presence in our needs when we choose to look at Him as Father. This is why the first section of the Lord’s prayer says, “Our Father in Heaven, hallowed be Your name.” 

• “Our” | Is about God inviting us into a family.
• “Father” | Is about God inviting us into intimacy with Him.
• “In Heaven” | Is about God inviting us into Kingdom Culture.
• “Hallowed be Your Name” | Is about God inviting us to see Him for all His worth.

Jesus is inviting us to know God as Father and in response “hallow” His Name to experience the freedom of His Presence. Here is the simple prayer we can pray in our own words:

1. Thank You for being our Omniscient Father who knows our needs.
2. Thank You for being our Omnipotent Father who provides for our needs.
3. Thank You for being our Omnipresent Father who is with us in our needs.
