2
Have a desire to pray more and better If you don’t have that desire, ask the Lord to give it to you Note the pattern normally is from “desire to discipline to delight”
3
Ask the Lord to “teach you to pray” – over and over again Recognize your need of help Recognize that He deeply desires to help you (this is part of “His will”) As an expression of your faith that He will answer this prayer… Regularly express thanks to Him that He is and will teach you to pray Set aside regular time and approach it with anticipation
4
Be convinced that His best answers will flow from the pattern of the Lord’s Prayer He was serious when He gave these instructions Remember Matthew 7:24-27 and John 13:17 See the value of praying this pattern “today” – each day Ask the Holy Spirit to creatively expand each word or line of this prayer – like hyper-links on a web page
5
Make notes of the way He makes this prayer “alive in you” i.e. The meaning of each word or line The relationship of each word or line to each other The application of the words or lines to various aspects of your life The “methods” of prayer you begin to develop
6
“Practice” this for the next 50 years and see how it works out for you It actually does take practice to pray in a new way Don’t let any sense of awkwardness stop you Think of it as playing scales prior to learning a great piece of music
