Presentation transcript:

PRAYER AS WORSHIP TO GOD Jesus taught his disciples to pray Matt 6:5-13. The early disciples continued in prayer so it is self evident prayer is worship to God Acts 2:42 One of the outstanding duties, privileges, and joys of the Christian's life is prayer to God. It is the Father's will that his children pray to Him 1Thess 5:17; Heb 4:16 Prayer of a righteous man availeth much Jas 5:16 Just because a person directs words to God does not necessarily mean they are worshipping God. They may indeed be vain words.

PRAYER AS WORSHIP TO GOD JESUS PRAYED MUCH Jesus worshipped by praying and is our example 1Pet 2:21; Lk 3:21; 6:12; Matt 14:23; Mk 1:35; Jhn 17; Matt 26:36-46; Lk 23:34-46 Surely no prayer less person can be a follower of Him who prayed so much

PRAYER AS WORSHIP TO GOD THE EARLY CHURCH WORSHIPPED BY PRAYING AND GIVING THANKS Acts 2:42 Church prayed for Peter in prison Acts 12:5 Christians are admonished to pray Rom 12:12; Eph 6:18; Col 4:2 ; 1Thess 5:17,18 Supplications (a wanting, a need - an asking, entreaty), prayers (talking to God), intercessions (seeking the presence and healing of God on behalf of others), and giving of thanks (gratitude) be made for all men; 1Tim 2:1 Many of the above passages show: The close inter-relation of prayer and thanksgiving That God is the giver all good and perfect gifts Jas 1:17 Receiving God’s blessings without giving thanks is living like pigs eating acorns under trees never looking to see where they come from

PRAYER AS WORSHIP TO GOD PROMISE TO ANSWER PRAYER IS CONDITIONAL May pray and not be heard (answered) Jas 4:3; Jhn 9:31 Conditions of acceptable prayer to God Be righteous 1Pet 3:12; Be obedient 1Jhn 3:22; Ask in faith Matt 21:22; Have forgiving spirit Matt 6:15 Have the right motive in prayer Jas 4:3 Pray in harmony with God's will 1Jhn 5:14 Pray in Jesus name Jhn 14:13

PRAYER AS WORSHIP TO GOD PROMISE TO ANSWER PRAYER IS CONDITIONAL All these conditions must be adhered to for our prayers to be acceptable to God Posture is not a condition of acceptable prayer accept as it indicates humility and submission 1Ki 8:22; Psa 95:6; Acts 20:36; Matt 26:39; 1Tim 2:8 Any posture that one might think appropriate for the occasion would be expedient as long as it is decent and in order 1Cor 14:40

PRAYER AS WORSHIP TO GOD THINGS FOR WHICH A CHRISTIAN SHOULD PRAY Forgiveness of sins Acts 8:22 That we enter not into temptation Matt 26:41 Daily necessities of life Matt 6:11 Earthly rulers 1Tim 2:1,2 Sick; Jas 5:14; Enemies Matt 5:44 Laborers to enter the harvest Matt 9:38 Preachers and for Lord's word to be glorified 2Thess 3:1 All children of God Phil 1:9-11 God's will to be done Matt 6:10 Kingdom to increase, not to come, its here Col 1:1

PRAYER AS WORSHIP TO GOD Jesus model prayer gives insight into prayer Matt 6:9-13 (1) Addressed to God; (2) Adoration to God, (3) Supplication for Kingdom; (4) Petition for daily sustenance; (5) Ask forgiveness; (6) Deliverance from evil one; (7) Ascription of glory to God Prayer is not only the expression of gratitude and of need, the supply of which is sought of God, but is a high and beautiful expression of trust, submission, and union with God. If you are a child of God you have the privilege of prayer to God as your Father. If you are not a child of God then you can't address God as your Father and expect him to hear (answer) your prayer.
