Lord teach us to just as John taugh his disciples.

John’s disciples had to pray and Jesus’ disciples wanted to learn better how to pray. They did not ask the Master to teach them how to preach or do great signs; they asked Him to teach them to pray.

They could perform miracles, and yet they wanted to learn to how pray. Here is something very interesting about the text .Notice that Jesus was a Man of prayer. He prayed at His baptism (Luke 3:21), before He chose the Twelve (Luke 6:12), when the crowds increased (Luke 5:16), before He asked the Twelve for their confession of faith (Luke 9:18), and at His Transfiguration (Luke 9:29). The disciples knew that He often prayed alone (Mark 1:35), and they wanted to learn from Him this secret of spiritual power and wisdom. If Jesus Christ, the perfect Son of God, had to depend on prayer during “the days of His flesh” (Heb. 5:7), then how much more do you and I need to pray!
We call this “The Lord’s Prayer,” not because Jesus prayed it (He never had to ask for forgiveness)but because Jesus taught it. It teaches us that true prayer depends on a spiritual relationship with God that aallow us to call Him “Father,” and this can come only through faith in Jesus Christ (Rom. 8:14-17; Gal. 4:1-7).
the purpose of prayer is not to get man’s will done in heaven, but to get God’s will done on earth. Prayer is asking God to use us to accomplish what He wants so that His name is glorified. I hope you are encouraged.
