Pastor preaching to the congregation in the Trinity sanctuary

SERMON NOTES

The Lord’s Prayer (part 2)

7 Sept 2025Pastor Dan Axtell

Sermon 7th Sept – Matthew 6:5-15

The Lord’s Prayer

In the previous message, we considered the depth of the Lord’s Prayer. In this second message, we explore its broad appeal found in the requests in the second half of this famous prayer. Our Lord wants us to pray for our daily physical and spiritual needs when he encourages us to pray for our daily bread. He wants us to ask for the forgiveness of our sins when we pray forgive us debts. He wants us to pray to avoid temptation altogether and for victory over the Evil One as the prayer concludes The answers to these requests have been and always will be a blessing to Christians from many different backgrounds.
