YOUR Nam YOUR Name, YOUR Ki , YOUR Kingdom, YOUR Will ngdom, YOUR Will Matthew 6:9b-10 Pastor Scott Williams Introducti Introduction: : According to Christ, the prayers of His followers are going to need a major reorientation. The problem with the human heart is so deep, that we are able to turn even intimate moments of worship into self-serving attempts to gain the approval of men, or to manipulate God Himself to do our bidding. The solution that Jesus proposes is a reorientation away from self and a focusing on His Name, His Kingdom, and His Will. 01. 01. 02. 02. 03. 03.

1. In what ways can our prayers be more self-serving rather then a

God glorifying endeavor?

2. If you were to look at the content of your prayers over the last

month would they be characterized more by “you and your” statements or “me and mine” statements?

3. Hallowing the “Name” of the Lord is to exalt God for who He truly
is. Read Isaiah 29:23. What are some characteristics of those who

hallow the Name of the Lord?

4. The statement “Your kingdom come” is not just meant to be a

hope of a future reality, but that God would reign in the hearts and lives of His people. How can we sometimes resist God’s rule

ver our hearts and lives?
5. Asking God to cause His will to be done is to ask Him to cause

everything in our lives to operate according to His purposes. This is a bold request. Are you willing to say to the Heavenly Father, “Do anything You will to me and mine”?

6. Spend time as a group in prayer esteeming God for who He truly

is by praying out attributes of God that bring His people comfort and hope. QU QUEST ESTION ONS S FOR FOR DI DISC SCUSSI USSION & DI DISC SCOV OVER ERY MAY 5, 2013 S E R M O N N O T E S
