Pastor Jeremy shares Wednesday in Glendive.

Phil 4:6 Be anxious for nothing, but in everything by

prayer and supplication, with thanksgiving, let your

requests be made known to God; 7 and the peace of

God, which surpasses all understanding, will guard your

hearts and minds through Christ Jesus.

Matt 6:8 ... your Father knows the things you have need

of before you ask Him.

James 4:2 ... you have not because you ask not

● God does not ask us to pray, or make our request

known, because He does not have that

information.

● Don’t let your lack of understanding be an excuse

not to pray.

● This is a vocal exercise, it involves speaking.

○ This is not meditation

○ Sending good thoughts out into the universe

is found in 2nd Nowhere 2:3

○ This is not manipulation or a display of

spirituality.

“The Lord’s Prayer”

Matt 6:9 In this manner, therefore, pray: Our Father in

heaven, Hallowed be Your name. 10 Your kingdom

come. Your will be done On earth as it is in heaven.

11Give us this day our daily bread. 12 And forgive us our

debts, As we forgive our debtors.13 And do not lead us

into temptation, But deliver us from the evil one. For

Yours is the kingdom and the power and the glory

forever. Amen.
