This course is a study on prayer and worship with emphasis on the priority of God’s glory and God’s kingdom over our needs and wants. It also emphasizes the fact that believers who honor this priority will have the things they need provided for them.

This course is a study on prayer and worship with emphasis on the priority of God’s glory and God’s kingdom over our needs and wants. It also emphasizes the fact that believers who honor this priority will have the things they need provided for them. The study is based on Matthew 6:5-13, but the key verse containing the central truth is Matthew 6:33, “Seek first his kingdom and his righteousness, and all these things will be given to you as well.” It starts with believers' position as sons and daughters of God. Because they are sons and daughters, they can approach the Father’s throne with confidence that their prayers will be heard. As members of God’s family, believers have family interests at heart and give priority to their Father’s name, kingdom, and will in everything they do. This attitude is reflected in their prayers. Having placed their Father’s will above their own, they make known their personal petitions with the confidence that, before they ask, their Father knows they have need of “all these things.” Particular emphasis will be upon prayer and worship as they relate to Christian service. While the material will be appropriate for your spiritual growth and edification, it is outlined in such a way as to provide a tool for Bible study. It should, therefore, serve a two-fold purpose: it can be a guide for your own personal devotion, and it can enhance your effectiveness in communicating God’s Word. Less
