Jesus did not command Ills disciples to pray, nor did Ho even give them a form of prayer until retiuestmi. The Lord's people must feel their need of Divlno help to appreciate the privilege of approaching the throne of grace. It will bo noticed also that our Lord merely taught His disciples: "When j/e pray." As a matter of fact, the Oen tiles, the world of mankind In general, have no access to the Throne of grace. "God heareth not alnners."? John Lx, 3J. The world in general, the race of Adam, was alienated from God through wicked works. Adam was uudor covenant "with God by which he eujoyed the priv ileges of u son of God. ThU Included fellowship, com munton, prayer and Divine supervision und care even to tug extent of ever lasting life. But Adam's disobedi ence abolished that covenant - relation- Praying to tw teen of ship and all Its m0M" privileges.? llos. vif 7, K. V. The only ones, therefore, who now enjoy the privilege of prayer are those who have been accepted of Qod back Into covenant-relationship. Instead of exhorting our friends and neighbors to pray to God and to trust for the fulfilment of their prayers, we should give them the Scriptural coun sel?to repent of sin and by faith ac cept the forgiveness of their sins, ac cording to the testimony of God's Word, by making a full consecration of themselves to be followers of Jesus. A Form of 8ound Words. - Responding to the request of Ills dltelple* Jesus gave a * sample of a prfljj|eK prayer. We note its brevity, simplicity, directness, orderliness. (1) "Our Father, which art in Heav en, hallowed [adored, honored] be Thy name." God's Name represents His character, His Kingdom, His person ality. First of all, then, we ascribe honor, reverence, majesty, glory to our great Creator, whom, through His ap pointed way, we delight to call our Father in Heaven. (2) Next in order wo acknowledge tie Divine authority. This means that our hearts are submissive to the Will of God, for Joy or sorrow, for pleasure or pain, for life or death, and that wo have confidence in the Divine power and promise that ultimately the Divine will shall be a? fully done on earth as It Is now done in Heaven: "Thy King dom come. Thy will be done on earth as it i? done In Heav en." In thlswe rec ognize the ' coming of Messiah's King dom and indirectly our own hopes con nected with that "Thy Kingdom come." Kingdom ? thai wo, 11 faithful, shall be assocl&ted., with- the Lord His glo rious Throne. 14 dispensing t^o, bles sings of Divine powfer and mercy to mankind, so as to effect the regenera tion of all the willing and obedient. (3) .1 "Give ns this day our daily bread." God has promised ;that our bread atkl our water shall be sSTft HiT has not promised, nor are we to ask for an abundance, wealth, riches, nor are we to specify fine food or luxuries. The thought is. Grant us dally such provisions for life's necessi ties as seemeth to Thee beet for as. (4) "Forgi re as oar debts as we have forgiven oar debtors." Here is empha sized the Master's teaching that only the merciful shall obtain mercy, that only the forgiving shall be forgiven. (5) ''Lead as not Into temptation [to abandon as there]." We feel our own weakness. Imperfection; hence, while knowing that we must be brought in Divine providence into positions of trial, testing, we may well pray not to be abandoned there, not to be left to our own strength, but that His grace may be sufficient for us. (0) The Bible assures us that there Is an Evil One, and "that he has great power and influence amongst men. that he Is "the i/rlnce of the power of the air," and "the god of this Age." IIow appropriate that we request the Lord not to abandon ns to the Devil's wiles The wbrdM, "For Thine 1s the King-, dom and the power and the glory for ever, Anient" are not found In the old* est Greek manuscripts, and are there^ fore properly omitted In tho Revised Version.
