JESUS AND PRAYER #3

PRAY TO THE FATHER 

Jesus said in (Matthew 6:9): "After this manner therefore pray ye: Our Father...". First of all, we know that everyone is nota child of God.under the New Covenant, only those who have been born again are children of God. Followers/believers of Jesus can could pray this way, saying, "Our Father" because they have a promissory note on their salvation.

The word "Father" is not for the unsaved today; it is for those born again children who are in the Kingdom of light. If you are really going to pray effectually and fellowship with God from your heart, then you must be a child of God. God is the creator of all mankind, but not Father of all. God is only the Father of those who have been born again, those who are in the family- The Kingdom of Light. (Ephesians 3:15)

Jesus talked about God as His Father and about approaching God as a Father. People couldn't understand that kind of talk. The same attitude is carried over to our day, especially among religious people. To many, Christianity is just another religion centered around a faraway God. Many don't really know Him. They have never come to God the Father by Jesus Christ, to know Him as their Father. That's why many are trying to approach Him in the wrong manner.

Certainly, we should fear God; that is, we should reverence Him and Worship Him. But, thank God, He is also our Father. Jesus is saying in (Matthew 6:9-13) that the right approach to God is to come to Him because He is your Father and to come to Him in praise and worship. The Bible says, "...Our Father which art in heaven, Hallowed be thy name" (Matthew 6:9). Glory to God! Come first with praise and worship into His presence because He is your Father.
