Top 7 Steps of Focused and Correct Way of Praying

Jesus teaches that prayer is focused. Although Jesus says we are actually to say this prayer, He does not suggest that this become a rigid ritual, but that it be used as a guide as we pray:

“This then, is how you should pray: “’Our Father in heaven, hallowed be your name, your kingdom come, your will be done on earth as it is in heaven. Give us today our daily bread. Forgive us our debts, as we also have forgiven our debtors. And lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from the evil one.” (Matthew 6:9-13).

The prayer above found in Matthew 6:9-13 is just a pattern and Jesus Christ did not suggest that we have to memorize this prayer and say the same prayer every time we pray to the Lord.

Now for this article we are showcasing some of the focus way and the correct way of praying to the Lord using the same pattern but without memorizing the text. Here are your top 7 steps of focused and correct way of praying.

AND FORGIVE US
Explanation : Ask God to forgive you knowing that God will only forgive our sins as we forgive others who have sinned against us; if you have something you've been holding against another brother or sister in Christ, it is imperative that you go to that person and mend the relationship, asking God to forgive. Regardless of the outcome - be at peace - knowing that you've done all you can to bring healing and restoration to the relationship.
