6 Steps to Pray the Lord’s Way

 

Learning to pray doesn’t have to be difficult.

The disciples asked Jesus to teach them to pray. Jesus didn’t give them an essay or a thesis on prayer. There wasn’t a string of expectations or traditions for prayer. He simply gave them an example of prayer with six steps. Therefore, following these 6 easy steps will help you pray the Lord’s Way.

 

1. Pray in Secret

There is a time to pray with others, but there is a time to be alone with God. Try to get away with God each day to pray in secret. 

But when you pray, go into your room, close the door and pray to your Father, who is unseen. Then your Father, who sees what is done in secret, will reward you” (Matthew 6.6).

 

2. Recognize God’s Authority and His Holiness

Come to God with an attitude of awe and reverence but also with the deep awareness that you are loved by Him. Prayer is talking with a Perfect Father.  

Our Father in heaven, hallowed be your name” (Matthew 6.9).
