Day 163. How is the Lord’s Prayer a pattern for prayer? (2025)

Today is day 163 and we are on the section on the Lord's Prayer.

163. How is the Lord’s Prayer a pattern for prayer?

The Lord’s Prayer models the primary types of prayer: praise of God, intercession for his rule, petition for his provision and protection, and confession of sins. I should pray regularly in all these ways. (Psalm 150; Isaiah 63:7–64:12; Acts 9:36–43; 3 John 2)

We will conclude today with Proper 12 on page 618 of the Book of Common Prayer (2019).
