Is Your Prayer Life Fake? - The Complete Service

Jesus teaches us to pray authentically by rejecting the performative prayers of religious hypocrites who sought public admiration. Instead, He calls us to private, genuine conversations with God our Father. The Lord's Prayer reveals three essential truths about God: He is intimately close as our Father, transcendently holy and sovereign, and graciously providing for our needs and forgiveness. Authentic prayer requires honesty rather than eloquence, approaching God with both reverence and intimacy. We must keep short accounts with God, confessing regularly and forgiving others as we have been forgiven.
