Teach Us To Pray

Pastor Kim leads a midweek discipleship study focused on Luke 11:1-4, exploring Jesus' teaching on prayer as a model for disciples. Drawing from Jesus' own example of prayer, the message emphasizes that true prayer begins with awe-inspired longing sparked by observing Christ's intimate communion with the Father. It highlights the Lord's Prayer not as a formula but as an invitation into a childlike, dependent relationship with God addressing Him as "Abba, Father" through the Spirit of adoption. The sermon walks through each petition: revering God's holy name first, seeking His kingdom and will, requesting daily provision, forgiveness (both received and extended), and protection from temptation and evil. It stresses God's initiating role in holiness, provision, forgiveness, and deliverance, reminding believers to prioritize God's glory over self-centered needs and to rely on the Holy Spirit for growth and maturity in prayer.
