Some call it "The LORD's Prayer", but it's really the prayer our LORD Jesus taught His people to pray at all times. I praise God that He has said, "...your Father knoweth what things ye have need of before ye ask Him." Matthew 6:8. And following that, He lovingly tells me, "After this manner therefore pray ye: Our Father which art in heaven..." Here is the prayer our LORD has taught us to pray, set to a simple melody I have written for it. Believer, He KNOWS what ye have need of BEFORE you ask it!
Not sure what it means "to believe"? This is the Gospel: Before the world was formed, before time, in eternity past, in the council of the Triune God; the Father chose those souls that would be recipients of eternal life. He, in His Sovereign will, wisdom and power, chose a people He would love and commune with forever. These are called, "the Israel of God - Jacob's Chosen Race", in Scripture. No nationality on earth can claim this title. No group of people can take it to themselves by force, by works or by choice. The citizens of God's eternal "Jerusalem" are people chosen by God, a finite group of souls known only to the LORD Himself from every nation, tribe and tongue, drawn from every age as long as time shall be. God the Son, the LORD Jesus Christ, agreed to cleanse each one of these God-hating rebels of their sin in His Own blood, for sin must be put away before any soul may approach unto God. Christ agreed to offer up Himself before God as the perfect Sacrifice, the perfect Substitute for sin, on behalf of each soul named by the Father. And finally, God the Spirit comes to each elect soul with power through The WORD and declares, "You are Mine!" This is the miracle of regeneration of the soul. I hope you enjoy the music!
