  Speaker 1: our friend Jesus. Spending time with Jesus is the best
• 0:17
  Speaker 1: way to start your day. Let's begin our time together
• 0:21
  Speaker 1: praising Him.
• 0:26
  Speaker 2: William Bradbury, a very famous and influential music composer... was
• 0:30
  Speaker 2: the one who took the poem that William Walford had
• 0:32
  Speaker 2: composed and turned it into a song. He wrote the

  Speaker 2: music for it. Bradbury helped Fanny Crosby to take all
• 0:38
  Speaker 2: of her poems and turn them into hymns. He taught
• 0:41
  Speaker 2: Philip Bliss and helped to mentor him. He also formed

• 2:02
  Speaker 3: whole flesh arise to seize the everlasting Christ, and shout
• 2:10
  Speaker 3: while passing through the air, farewell, farewell, sweet hour of prayer.
• 2:31
  Speaker 1: Hi, boys and girls. We're memorizing the Lord's Prayer. It's
• 2:35
  Speaker 1: a special prayer that Jesus taught to his disciples. And
• 2:40
  Speaker 1: so let's just go through it right now. It's actually
• 2:43
  Speaker 1: our memory verse for this week. I'm going to read
• 2:46
  Speaker 1: through the whole section, the whole prayer, and then we'll
• 2:50
  Speaker 1: work on that first verse, and then we'll get into
• 2:52
  Speaker 1: our lesson, okay? Here we go. Our Father, which art
• 2:57
  Speaker 1: in heaven, hallowed be thy name. Thy kingdom come, thy
• 3:03
  Speaker 1: will be done, in earth as it is in heaven.
• 3:10
  Speaker 1: Give us this day our daily bread, and forgive us
• 3:14
  Speaker 1: our debts as we forgive our debtors. And lead us
• 3:19
  Speaker 1: not into temptation, but deliver us from evil. For thine
• 3:25
  Speaker 1: is the kingdom, and the power, and the glory forever. Amen.
• 3:33
  Speaker 1: Good job. All right, let's go over the first verse
• 3:36
  Speaker 1: that we started working on last time. Our Father which
• 3:40
  Speaker 1: art in heaven, hallowed be thy name. Can you say
• 3:45
  Speaker 1: it with me? Our Father which art in heaven, hallowed
• 3:50
  Speaker 1: be thy name. Good job. One more time. Our Father
• 3:56
  Speaker 1: which art in heaven, hallowed be thy name. All right,
• 4:01
  Speaker 1: now let's start working on the next verse. Thy kingdom come,
• 4:07
  Speaker 1: thy will be done in earth as it is in heaven.
• 4:13
  Speaker 1: I'll say that again. Thy kingdom come, thy will be
• 4:18
  Speaker 1: done in earth as it is in heaven. Can you
• 4:23
  Speaker 1: say it with me? Thy kingdom come, thy will be
• 4:27
  Speaker 1: done in earth One more time. Good. We're going to
• 4:43
  Speaker 1: be practicing this throughout the week so that by Friday,
• 4:47
  Speaker 1: you will have it all memorized. But first, before we
• 4:50
  Speaker 1: go to our Bible lesson, let's bow our heads in prayer.
• 4:54
  Speaker 1: Dear Lord, we pray that your spirit will be with
• 4:56
  Speaker 1: us as we talk some more about prayer. Help us
• 5:00
  Speaker 1: to learn more about the importance of prayer and how
• 5:03
  Speaker 1: wonderful it is to have a relationship with you. In
• 5:06
  Speaker 1: Jesus' name, amen. What is praying? If someone were to
• 5:12
  Speaker 1: ask you that question, what would you say? What is praying?
• 5:16
  Speaker 5: Hmm.
• 5:17
  Speaker 1: You'd probably say that praying is talking to God, the Father,
• 5:21
  Speaker 1: and to Jesus. And that's right. In fact, it is
• 5:26
  Speaker 1: better than talking to our very best friend on earth.
• 5:29
  Speaker 1: Jesus loved talking to his Father. When Jesus was here
• 5:33
  Speaker 1: on earth, he would spend, sometimes, all night in prayer.
• 5:38
  Speaker 1: Even though he had had a very busy day, while
• 5:41
  Speaker 1: all the others were sleeping, Jesus would slip away and
• 5:45
  Speaker 1: spend time praying in a quiet place. Sometimes he would
• 5:51
  Speaker 1: pray all night long, and he always felt rested after
• 5:56
  Speaker 1: he did that. At one of our church's, We're going
• 5:59
  Speaker 1: to be having an all-night prayer meeting. I personally have
• 6:02
  Speaker 1: never joined in an all-night prayer meeting, so it'll be
• 6:06
  Speaker 1: interesting to see how that goes. Jesus would pray all night,
• 6:10
  Speaker 1: and when morning would come, he would feel rested. The
• 6:14
  Speaker 1: Jews were taught that praying was very, very important, and
• 6:17
  Speaker 1: it is. But Jesus didn't pray the way that most
• 6:21
  Speaker 1: of them did. The Pharisees prayed at a certain time
• 6:25
  Speaker 1: every day, and they would pray so that everyone could
• 6:28
  Speaker 1: see them and hear them and think that, oh, they
• 6:32
  Speaker 1: are so holy. When it was time to pray, they
• 6:35
  Speaker 1: would stop right where they were and pray out loud.
• 6:38
  Speaker 1: People could hear the prayers, and oftentimes the Pharisees would
• 6:43
  Speaker 1: pray boastful prayers. One day when Jesus' disciples heard him praying,
• 6:49
  Speaker 1: what did one of them ask him to do? Let's
• 6:52
  Speaker 1: turn in our Bibles to Luke chapter 11, verse 1. Matthew, Mark, Luke.
• 7:01
  Speaker 1: Those are the first few books in the New Testament.
• 7:04
  Speaker 1: The Bible is divided in two parts. The Old Testament
• 7:08
  Speaker 1: is in the first part of the Bible. That starts
• 7:10
  Speaker 1: with Genesis and goes all the way through to the
• 7:13
  Speaker 1: different prophets and when Israel was coming back from their
• 7:19
  Speaker 1: captivity in Babylon. And then you have the New Testament,
• 7:24
  Speaker 1: which starts with the stories of Jesus and goes through
• 7:28
  Speaker 1: the different acts of the apostles and then all the
• 7:31
  Speaker 1: letters that Paul and some of the other apostles that
• 7:34
  Speaker 1: they would write to the churches to encourage them. And
• 7:38
  Speaker 1: they can encourage us too. So we're going to Luke
• 7:41
  Speaker 1: chapter 11. I'm almost there. I got distracted talking. Luke
• 7:47
  Speaker 1: chapter 11 and then verse 1. Luke 11, verse 1.
• 7:53
  Speaker 1: Here's what it says.
• 7:55
  Speaker 6: Now it came to pass, as he was praying in
• 7:58
  Speaker 6: a certain place, when he seized, that one of his
• 8:01
  Speaker 6: disciples said to him, Lord, teach us to pray, as
• 8:06
  Speaker 6: John also taught his disciples.
• 8:08
  Speaker 1: He had stopped praying, and that's when one of the disciples,
• 8:12
  Speaker 1: we don't know who, but they came to him and said,
• 8:15
  Speaker 1: Teach us to pray, please, Lord. And Jesus was happy
• 8:19
  Speaker 1: to teach them to pray. We don't always have to
• 8:22
  Speaker 1: say the exact words of the prayer that we're learning
• 8:25
  Speaker 1: and we're memorizing, but it's important to learn them because
• 8:29
  Speaker 1: they help us to remember what to talk to God
• 8:32
  Speaker 1: about when we pray. So let's read through the words.
• 8:37
  Speaker 1: We've started memorizing them, haven't we? Let's go through it
• 8:40
  Speaker 1: and just review it right now. Are you ready? Our Father,
• 8:44
  Speaker 1: which art in heaven, hallowed be thy name. Thy kingdom come,
• 8:52
  Speaker 1: thy will be done, in earth as it is in heaven.
• 8:58
  Speaker 1: Give us this day our daily bread, and forgive us
• 9:03
  Speaker 1: our debts as we forgive our debtors. Lead us not
• 9:08
  Speaker 1: into temptation, but deliver us from evil. For thine is
• 9:13
  Speaker 1: the kingdom and the power and the glory forever. Amen.
• 9:20
  Speaker 1: Would you like to understand what those words mean? This week,
• 9:24
  Speaker 1: we're going to talk about, we're going to look at
• 9:26
  Speaker 1: each little phrase and learn about what those words mean
• 9:31
  Speaker 1: and how it can help us in our daily lives.
• 9:35
  Speaker 1: But you'll have to come back next time. Let's bow
• 9:39
  Speaker 1: our heads in prayer. Lord, you are our Father. You
• 9:43
  Speaker 1: love us so much. Be with us today as we
• 9:47
  Speaker 1: go about our work and our play. Maybe as we
• 9:50
  Speaker 1: get ready for bed, if some kids listen to this
• 9:52
  Speaker 1: before they go to bed. Help us to have a
• 9:56
  Speaker 1: deep connection with you. In Jesus' name, amen.
• 10:04
  Speaker 5: Matthew 6, 9-13 Our Father in heaven.
• 10:13
  Speaker 7: Hallowed be your name, your kingdom come, your will be done,
• 10:20
  Speaker 7: on earth as it is in heaven. Give us this
• 10:25
  Speaker 7: day our daily bread, and forgive us our debts, as
• 10:32
  Speaker 7: we forgive our debtors, and do not feed us into temptation.
• 10:42
  Speaker 7: but deliver us from the evil one. For yours is
• 10:47
  Speaker 7: the kingdom, and the power, and the glory, forever.
• 10:55
  Speaker 4: Amen.
• 10:58
  Speaker 7: Matthew chapter 6, verses 9 through 13.
