“And he said unto them, When ye pray, say, Our Father …” Luke 11:2(KJV)
Jesus is showing us from our opening scripture that prayer is based on a relationship, letting us know that every child of God has equal rights before the Father in prayer.
This shows you that if Jesus could get results in prayer, you also can get results in prayer, and I can also get results when I pray, because we are praying to “Our Father.” Therefore, be confident whenever you want to pray. Know that God wants to hear you and He wants to answer your prayer because He is your Father.
As a child of God, you do not need anybody to act as an intermediary to pray for you so God will answer your prayer. No, you can pray for yourself, by yourself and expect to get the same results that Jesus got, because you are praying to your Father. He loves you just as He loves Jesus. Do you believe that? (See John 16:26-27)
This is why Jesus said in John 16:23-24, “And in that day ye shall ask me nothing. Verily, verily, I say unto you, Whatsoever ye shall ask the Father in my name, he will give it you. Hitherto have ye asked nothing in my name: ask, and ye shall receive, that your joy may be full.”
