And lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil Questions for Discussion/Application: *Re-read Matthew 6:5-15. Having re-read the text and listened to the sermon, what stands out to you the most about verses 9-15 of the Lord’s Prayer? *When we pray “Give us this day our daily bread”, what are we asking our heavenly Father to do for us? *Why is it so critical that we look to the Lord, in faith and in prayer for our daily bread? *How can self-sufficiency hinder us in seeking to pray this way? *“Forgive us our debts, as we also have forgiven our debtors.” What is sobering about this part of the Lord’s prayer? Consider re-reading the Lloyd-Jones quote in the Recap under point #2. How do you personally want to grow in modeling and exemplifying this grace of forgiveness? *How can remembering the gospel, and preaching the gospel to ourselves help us to forgive others? *“Lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil.” Why is it important that we as believers pray this daily? *How personally are you helped in your own prayer life by considering the Lord’s prayer? *Consider taking taking to pray through verses 11-15 of the Lord’s prayer as a group.
