1 | Matt Chap 6 - Repeating yor prayers | Matthew | Aileen | 228943 | ||
Mathew Chapter 6 states we should not repeat our prayers because God knows exactly what we need. Does this mean everyday we should not have the same prayer? Or am I reading it wrong? |

2 | Matt Chap 6 - Repeating yor prayers | Matthew | biblicalman | 228944 | ||
Hi Aileen, This means that we do not need to concentrate our prayers on every day needs but can leave those with our Father in Heaven. Instead what we should be praying about is the extension of the Kingly Rule of Heaven. 'Seek first His Kingly Rule and His righteousness, and all these thingss will be added to you.' Thus in the Lord's prayer we are to pray first of all for God's holy Name to be hallowed among men, for God's Kingly Rule to be established amongst men, and for His will to be done on earth as it is in Heaven. These are to be our first concern. Once we have prayed for those we can ask God to meet our minimum needs, (our daily bread), to forgive us for our continual sins, to enable us to avoid temptation, and to deliver us from the Evil One. You will note that these latter are mainly concerned with our spiritual welfare. It is a reminder that we are to look, not at the things which are seen, but at the things which are unseen (2 Corinthians 4.18). We may certainly pray in a similar way daily, but we must ensure that it does not become routine. Best wishes |
