Mat 6:9 “Therefore, you should pray like this: Our Father in heaven, your name be honored as holy. Matt 6:9-13 we have what is generally called ”The Lord’s Prayer.” In using this title, however, we should remember that Jesus never prayed it Himself. It was given to His disciples as a model after which they could pattern their prayers. It was not given as the exact words they were to use, because many words repeated by rote memory can become empty phrases. Our Father in heaven. Prayer should be addressed to God the Father in acknowledgment of His sovereignty over the universe. Hallowed be Your name. We should begin our prayers with worship, ascribing praise and honor to Him who is so worthy of it.
