“1Father, holy is your name. 2Your kingdom come. Your will be done on earth as it is in heaven. 4Give us today our daily bread. 5Forgive us our sins, 6as we ourselves forgive everyone who is indebted to us. 7Lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from the Evil One…13how much more will your heavenly Father give the Holy Spirit to those who ask Him. ”

1. Start with praise & worship. God is holy. Give thanks and praise to your heavenly Father and acknowledge that He is worthy of praise.
2. Be aware that Jesus is coming back again. Watch and pray for his return and pray His kingdom is established on this earth…and that His gospel reaches all nations.
3. Surrender your life and agendas to God and pray that His will is done in your life. To accomplish His will you must know His will. Spend some time listening and asking God how you might accomplish His will.
4. God wants us to ask for our daily needs. Take a moment to think about today’s needs. Be specific and honest in asking for your daily bread. Focus on today – do not worry about tomorrow.
5. Ask God’s forgiveness for your sins. Be willing to repent (turn away from them in the future) and make amends to those you have offended.
6. Ask God to show you if you need to forgive anyone who has offended you…even long ago. Forgiveness is a process.
7. Pray for God to lead you away from any situations or persons that would tempt you to sin. Pray for Him to keep you safe from the Devil and all demons.
8. Ask God for more of His Holy Spirit so that you may 1) walk in the Spirit, 2) pray in the Spirit and 3) be filled with the Spirit.
