| The Shepaherd's Psalm Psalm 23 "The Lord is my shepherd; I shall not want. He maketh me lie down in green pastures: he leadeth me beside the still waters. He restoreth my soul: he leadeth me in the paths of righteousness for his name's sake. Yea, though I walk in the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil: for thou art with me; thy rod and thy staff they comfort me. Thou preparest a table before me in the presence of mine enemies: thou anointest my head with oil; my cup runneth over. Surley goodness and mercy shall follow me all the days of my life: and I will dwell in the house of the Lord for ever." |
| The Lord's Prayer As told by Matthew 6:9-13 "Our Father which art in heaven, Hallowed be thy name. Thy kingdom come. Thy will be done in earth as it is in heaven. Give us this day our daily bread. And forgive us our debts, as we forgive our debtors. And lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil: For thine is the kingdom, and the power, and the glory, for ever. Amen" |
| The Lord's Prayer As told by Luke 11:2-4 "Our father wich art in heaven, Hallowed be thy name. Thy kingdom come. Thy will be done, as in heaven, so in earth. Give us day by day our daily bread. And forgive os our sins; for we also forgive every one that is indebted to us. And lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil." |
| Prayer |
| Throughout the Bible it teaches us how to pray and what we should pray. It also tels us how often we need to pray. |
| Luke 18:1b "...that men ought always to pray, and not to faint;" |
| 1Thessalonians 5:17 "Pray without ceasing" |
| James 5:16 "Confess your faults one to another, and pray one for another, that ye may be healed. The effectual fervent prayer of a righteous man availeth much." |
| 1Timothy 4:5 "For it is sanctified by the word of God and prayer." |
| Matthew 6:5-8 "And when thou prayest, thou shalt not be as the hypocrites are: for they love to pray standing in the synagogues and in the corners of the streets, that they may be seen of men. Verily I say unto you, They have thier reward. But thou, when thou prayest, enter into thy closet, and when thou hast shut the door, pray to thy Father which is in secret; and thy Father which seeth in secret shall reward thee openly. But when ye pray, use not vain repetitions, as the heathen do: for they think that they shall be heard for their much speaking. Be not ye therefore like unto them: for your Father knoweth what things ye have need of, before ye ask him." |
