1 " God does amazing things when we trust Him. "
― R. Albert Mohler Jr. , The Prayer That Turns the World Upside Down: The Lord's Prayer as a Manifesto for Revolution
2 " The Lord's Prayer takes less than twenty seconds to read aloud, but it takes a lifetime to learn. "
3 " Desperation leads to prayer. "
4 " Prayer is never an isolated event. When we pray, we convey our entire theological system. Our theology is never so clearly displayed before our own eyes and before the world as in our prayers. Praying forces us to articulate our doctrines, convictions, and theological assumptions. These aspects of our Christian life come to a unique focus in prayer because when we speak to God we are explicitly revealing who we believe he is, who we believe we are, what his disposition toward us is, and why he has that disposition. "
5 " We can pursue the glory of the Father by humbling ourselves in secret, or we can pursue our own glory by exalting ourselves before others. "
