We can become so familiar with this treasured prayer that we forget it is the manifesto of the Jesus Movement.
The Christian life begins with a prayer: “Lord have mercy on me a sinner.” Then comes a life of fellowship with God, and that means talking to him.
But I don’t know anyone who doesn’t find prayer difficult. A lot of people doubt whether it is even sensible to pray, since God knows our needs anyway and has predestined what will happen.
My first observation is just this: Jesus prayed, and that prayer was fundamental to his relationship with God.
This 10-page ebook, based on a sermon about the prayer that Jesus gave us, is my gift to you.
