The Lord's Prayer
Insight and Inspiration to Draw You Closer to Him
How can we know God’s will if we don’t pray His prayer?
After reading this book, you will understand the intricacies of the Lord’s Prayer and how it was designed to powerfully affect your relationship with the heavenly Father.
No prayer is better known—or more misunderstood—than the prayer Jesus provided in His Sermon on the Mount. The words, though simple, can transform the way Christians pray and live.
With remarkable insight, wisdom, and depth, respected theologian R. T. Kendall uncovers the transforming truths contained within each line of this familiar prayer, including the following: When and why to pray the Lord’s Prayer How to know and pray the will of God How unanswered prayer can be a sign of God’s favor How the Lord’s Prayer can be misused Why we should pray at all This book will give readers not only a model for prayer but also a revolutionary way to pray effectively while drawing closer to the Father.
