Praying Like the Master: Part 7
Lead Us Not into Temptation
Praying Like the Master - Part 7 - Of course, a holy God would never lead us into temptation. So why would Jesus command us to pray this way? We so often ask for things we want in prayer, without asking, “Lord, what do you want from me?” A powerful prayer life is one in which we are working alongside God as He remakes us in the image of His Son. Do you know specific ways He’s working on your character right now? Why not ask Him?

If we are the Temple where redemption happens, what is our plan to draw people to Him? The answer is to relearn an ancient, almost forgotten practice: Hospitality. In a time when loneliness is an epidemic, when few people know their neighbors, something as simple as a meal together can be the starting place for something beautiful to happen.
When our bond with God was severed by our sin, He didn’t give up on us. He made a second Eden, a place for us to meet with Him and be redeemed. That place was the Temple, and the events that happened there teach us about a God who is mighty to save, the cost of our sin, and His plans for us.
