Is prayer your first priority? That is what Paul told Timothy his first priority should be. Who was Timothy to pray for? Everyone.
As we conclude this series of the lessons on the Lord's Prayer, we will look at our concept of eternity. Are we living for the here and now; or are we living for eternity? As we seek to answer that question, we will see how our perspective will change, our pursuits will change and our concept of praise will change.
Just what do we know of God's glory? Do we know what it is? We can hardly ask for it unless we do. Is glory something we give to God? If so, why does He need it?

"Give us this day our daily bread." Our God wants us to ask Him to meet our needs, not because He does not know what they are; He knows long before we ask. He knows, but in all likelihood, we don't. Therefore, He insists that we ask. It will exercise our faith; it will make us dependent; and it will multiply His glory. Every day we must come before Him and ask.
The Lord's Prayer - many of us have read it, memorized it, and recited it many times. But, do we use it as the pattern God intended it to be? Or is it more than that?
What is God looking for in a person? Is it looks? Is it faith? Is it miracles? Or is a hear that is truly after His? God is searching and looking around the earth for those children of His whose hearts are truly for Him. People He can use in His work. People who are humble. People who are loving. People who are filled with the Holy Spirit.
What does God say in His word about prayer. But that will only make us more accountable. We need to be willing to apply that knowledge to our own lives and lay ourselves before God in conviction and humility.
