His prayer content

The difference is the faith

Jesus teached
the target subject you pray for (prayer motivation & underlying value - identity)
your enemy
you lost something owing to your enemy
pray for a blessing (gain) to your enemy
You gain because you have prayed for your enemy
you are affirmed to be the son of God
the reward of such a prayer is that you become more like your Heavenly Father
praying venues (praying is something in-between you and God)
closed rooms in secret
talk and ask to our Heavenly Father in secret
not on a street
intended to be seen by others? getting appraise from others?
not a matter with others' comments
not to show off how holy you are as a hypocrite
prayer contents
unlike gentiles or hypocrites, do not use long and empty phrases to convince God or let others know how well it is
reason1: the heavenly Father knows our needs well (God's might)
reason2: we are the people of God (our relationship and identity)
so, the content could be
HE saw the crowd (of Israel?!) was like sheep without a shepherd
pray earnestly to God to send His labors to collect the harvest
the context: the harvest is plentiful but labor is few
can I see the picture? God open my eyes because I am one of your saved children.
Hollowed be Your Name, our Heavenly Father (Your domination)
May your Kingdom come
Your Will be done on earth as in the Heaven
God's might we may trust and rely on
forgive us as we have forgiven others (relational needs)
lead us not going into a temptation (not going near to the evil)
save us from the evil one (sin overwhelming the world)
give us our daily bread (material needs)
the faith of His people and stand firm in God
Nature: praying is a HOLY (encountering GOD in the time and place) so HE cleared the business men in the temple
Nature: to demonstrate God's might and we are the people of God and have faith to our God
21:22 And whatever you ask in prayer, you will receive, if you have faith
your prayer will come true if you believe you have received
the parable of the injustice judge - persevere to seek God's righteousness to magnify
Do you know whom you are praying to?
the tax collector knows God and was humble in his prayer whereas the pharisee neglected God and just showed off how relatively he did better than others.
Watch and pray for the understanding, faith, strength and decisions in the upcoming future:
stay aware and watchful at all times and pray for the strength to escape the things to come and keep stand in front of God's son
Jesus.
Understand and have the current situations in your prayers but not to forget the future in God's will.
