The Model Prayer - Our Request (14 of 14)
Series: It Was Just A Prayer Meeting
Donald Cantrell
Matthew 6:11-13
Introduction:
We mentioned that the model prayer involves 3 things that we need to do to make it effective and efficient in our lives, as follows:
1 - Effective Prayer Involves Relationship
2 - Effective Prayer Involves Responsibility

It also means knowing him personally as our heavenly father. It would also involve having assurance that we are children of God and that we are obeying him.

Mat 6:12 KJV - And forgive us our debts, as we forgive our debtors.

The second thing we must do to be effective in our prayer life is to display proper responsibility. We saw that we were to ''Honor Gods Name'', ''Hasten His Kingdom'', and ''Heed His Will''. In doing these three things we can find a prayer life that will be effective and useful to the glory of God as we pray.
