Be not you, therefore, like unto them: for your Father knows what things you have need of, even before you ask Him. After this manner, therefore, <strong>pray you Our Father<\/strong> who art in heaven, Hallowed be your name. Your Kingdom come, Your will be done in the earth as it is in heaven. Give us this day our daily bread.\u00a0And forgive us our debts, as we forgive our debtors. And lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil: For Yours is the Kingdom and the power, and the glory, forever.

Verily, verily, I say unto you, <strong>Whatsoever you shall ask the Father in My name<\/strong>, He will give it to you.\u00a0 Up to now, you have asked nothing in My name: ask, and you shall receive, that your joy may be full.\u00a0 These things have I spoken unto you in proverbs: but the time comes when I shall no more speak unto you in proverbs, but I shall shew you plainly of the Father. At that day you shall ask in My name: and I say not unto you, that I will pray the Father for you:\u00a0 For the Father Himself loves you, because you have loved Me, and have believed that I came out from God. I came forth from the Father, and am come into the world: again, I leave the world and go to the Father. <strong>John 16:23-28.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>These words spake Jesus, and lifted up His eyes to heaven, and said<strong>, Father,<\/strong> the hour is come; glorify Your Son, that Your Son also may glorify you:\u00a0 As You have given Him power over all flesh, that He should give eternal life to as many as You have given Hm.\u00a0 And this is life eternal, that they might know You the only true God, and Jesus Christ, whom You have sent.\u00a0 I have glorified You on the earth: I have finished the work which You gave Me to do.\u00a0 And now, O <strong>Father,<\/strong> glorify Me with Your own self with the glory which I had with You before the world was. <strong>John 17:1-5<\/strong>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>And when you pray, do not use vain repetitions, as the heathen do: for they think that they shall be heard for their much speaking.
