Believe 12:  PRAYER

Objective:  I want to know God.

Preparing for the Lesson:

Be in prayer as you read the following: Mark 1:35, John 17, Matthew 6:5, Matthew 6:9-13,Psalm 17:6, Psalm 54:2, Psalm 88:2, Psalm 88:13, Exodus 33:11 and Hebrews 4:16.  I suggest that you read the scriptures in your version of the Bible and then read the same scriptures in another version of the Bible.

The Journey of BELIEVE 12:  Prayer

My Thoughts:

• I like the pattern in which Jesus can assist us in how our prayers may be formed:  Upward, Personal and Spiritual.  
• I love the Lord's Prayer.  I have posted a beautiful rendition (video) of The Lord's Prayer.
• I have also included a post on a beautiful prayer that John A. McKee, of Tucson, AZ, and of NPC wrote "Lord, Teach Us To Pray" on July 30, 1996.  Relig_28 by:  John A. Mckee, July 30, 1996, Used by Permission - by John A. McKee, January 18, 2016.

Closing Prayer:

Heavenly Father, Please help me to put this week's key idea into practice. Now I want to pray the Lord's Prayer that you taught us (repeat the Lord's Prayer) then we pray this through Jesus Christ. Amen.
