The Lord’s Prayer - 02 What Is Prayer?
13 Is anyone among you in trouble? Let them pray. Is anyone happy? Let them sing songs of praise. 14 Is anyone among you ill? Let them call the elders of the church to pray over them and anoint them with oil in the name of the Lord. 15 And the prayer offered in faith will make the sick person well; the Lord will raise them up. If they have sinned, they will be forgiven. 16 Therefore confess your sins to each other and pray for each other so that you may be healed. The prayer of a righteous person is powerful and effective.
17 Elijah was a human being, even as we are. He prayed earnestly that it would not rain, and it did not rain on the land for three and a half years. 18 Again he prayed, and the heavens gave rain, and the earth produced its crops. (James 5:13-18)
G’day! Welcome to Partakers Podcasts! Over the next few podcasts we are looking together at Prayer. We will do this by taking apart slowly perhaps one of the best known passages of the Bible, in what we call the Lord’s Prayer. It is a prayer which is common to all churches of all denominations, just as it is known to those of other faiths and indeed, no faith at all.
Prayer is to be at the centre of our relationship between God and ourselves. Prayer should be the major action of fellowship between God and humans, and of humans communicating with God, both in talking and listening. Prayer is also a way of “letting God in” to our lives as people of God, Christians, and of enjoying the company of God, relating all aspects of life to Him. Prayer is also a means of protection for us, in that we are too weak in our own understanding and strength to withstand all that is against us. God Himself assists us as we pray: where our desires and yearnings are corrected and strengthened. Prayers expressing desires and thoughts offer a contributory way to the journey of the Christian Disciple.
As we know and we shall see in coming Podcasts, the Lord’s Prayer is a superb biblical example of prayer. Please do listen or download the mp3 podcast to learn more about prayer in the life of the Christian!
