Pray
Matthew 6:9-13
This, then, is how you should pray:
“‘Our Father in heaven,
hallowed be your name,
10 your kingdom come,
your will be done,
on earth as it is in heaven.
11 Give us today our daily bread.
12 And forgive us our debts,
as we also have forgiven our debtors.
13 And lead us not into temptation,[a]
but deliver us from the evil one.[b]’

We can pray to Jesus and God in more of a freeform way as well. As we pray we should talk to Jesus and God about our hopes dreams and fears, and ask for assistance in understanding in all that we do. We should ask them to strengthen us and lead us into truth.

Heavenly Father, we thank you for your blessings. We thank you for everything you do for us in our lives. We pray for understanding and patience for each other. We ask that you come into our hearts and minds. We pray that you draw close to us. We want you to be near and accept your wisdom and love. We ask that you teach us the truth so that we can be free from all the lies of the adversary. We pray for strength in overcoming the trials of our lives. We say these things in Jesus' name. Amen

When we say a thing in Jesus' name we are saying that we are aligning all our intentions with Jesus and God's intentions and that we are praying for them to be present in our actions and words. We are inviting them to be with us in everything we say and do and to speak and move with us. When we say amen we are sealing our prayer saying that it is good and true and everything reflects the truth of God.

Go and Jesus are ONE but themselves as well. They are equally the full authority of God. We approach God through Jesus and all things flow through Jesus to God. No one comes to God except through Jesus. We call God and Jesus our heavenly fathers because they are the source of all things and are very much wise, loving, and patient parents while we are little children.

Because are all connected through the Kingdom of God, which is the Spirit of God through which all things reside, when we pray we are communicating directly to Jesus and through and with him to God. God and Jesus move in Grace.

To be hallowed means to be held sacred and greatly honored and loved.

The Kingdom of God is at hand, and when we accept the truth of God into our hearts by humbling ourselves before our Lord Jesus Christ and asking for the truth, we will be taught this truth which will begin to awaken us to this truth and the perception this truth brings. As we awaken to this truth and perception everything in our lives changes to reflect this awakened and truthful perception. This truthful perception changes the way we think and choose and through our enlightened truthful actions the Kingdom of God manifests into the physical world. In this way, God's will and truth are manifest not only within the Kingdom of God within us but into the physical world through us as we begin to move in Grace with God's truth. God's will manifest on the Earth just as it is manifest in heaven through our truthful actions.

The bread represents Jesus and what he did by dying for our sins or errors. Jesus came to manifest to us openly the truth of God with his teachings, life, and death. He came to give us salvation from our fallen state that we bring upon ourselves by following the lies of Lucifer. Only God's truth can lead us out of the lies of Lucifer and the truth of God comes from Jesus and God. We must seek Jesus and God to truly be free from the lies of Lucifer, this is the only path to salvation. By asking that we should receive our daily bread we are reminded of the ceremony that Jesus taught us at the last supper. Jesus taught us to break and eat bread and drink juice in remembrance of him and his sacrifice for us. We take the sacrament on Sundays but we should also remember this sacrifice every day of our lives, and this prayer helps to remind us of these truths.

Forgive those who trespass against you and love your enemies. These are two of Jesus' fundamental commandments and they represent the true nature of God's eternal love, patience, and understanding for us. There are no enemies, only misguided souls. Jesus prayed for those who were crucifying him in this way, "Forgive them for they know not what they do." Even while he was being tortured and killed Jesus was forgiving the ones who were harming him and this is the example for us to live by. You must have forgiveness in your heart for the truth and Grace of God and Jesus to move within you. We as God's children should strive to align with these principles and become like our heavenly father in thought, and actions. Because we and all things are a part of the Spirit of God, these truths are our most fundamental truths as well and we are only distracted and blinded to them. The truth of God awakens you to your own deepest truth which is also the truth of God. Surrendering to God is only ever accepting what is most authentically yours. We and all things are ONE with God and Jesus. Seeking the truth of God and Jesus awakens you to these truths. Seek and you will find. Knock and the door will open. The doorway is within you.

God never leads us into temptation. he never tempts us with unhealthy things. This is a petition that we should never be led into a test that is greater than we can handle. God will never test us with anything that we are not capable of overcoming, but Lucifer will try to twist the healthy tests that God gives us into something detrimental to us. If allow ourselves to be tempted by Lucifer's lies we face physical destruction and death by our hand. We must remember that life is full of tests and trials, and this is why we come here. But at the point of testing, we will be tempted by Lucifer, and we must stand firm in our faith and allow ourselves to be guided by Jesus and God instead of Lucifer's lies about what is taking place. The truth of God allows any test within ourselves and our lives to teach us more about the truth of God and to forge us into something greater, while Lucifers lies about the test will lead us into suffering and destroy us. When we are facing challenging trials we must strive to see how God is teaching us lessons through our experiences. Even if the test is painful or intense it is always out of Love and is intended to teach us and educate us as the eternal soul level perception that we truly are. Reality must be sharp and strong to educate us otherwise it wouldn't perform its purpose and reality would not function properly. We choose to come here and be tested in these ways.

Humble yourselves and seek Jesus and God and ask them for the truth. The truth always sets you free.

In Jesus' name Amen
