Forgive Us Our Debts, As We Forgive Our Debtors (5 of 7)
Series: The Lord's Prayer

Matthew 6:9-13
We are in a study on the Lord's prayer. Let's read it together:
Matthew 6:9 In this manner, therefore, pray: Our Father in heaven, Hallowed be Your name. 10 Your kingdom come. Your will be done On earth as it is in heaven. 11 Give us this day our daily bread. 12 And forgive us our debts, As we forgive our debtors. 13 And do not lead us into temptation, But deliver us from the evil one. For Yours is the kingdom and the power and the glory forever. Amen.
This week, we will be talking about what it means when we PRAY, ''Forgive us our debts, as we forgive our debtors.''
TELL THE STORY OF HAVING MURDEROUS THOUGHTS TOWARD THOSE THAT TOOK YOUR JOB.

Matthew 18:21 Then Peter came to Him and said, ''Lord, how often shall my brother sin against me, and I forgive him? Up to seven times?'' 22 Jesus said to him, ''I do not say to you, up to seven times, but up to seventy times seven. 23 Therefore the kingdom of heaven is like a certain king who wanted to settle accounts w ...
