Pastor Burkey encourages us each day this week to pray the five petitions from the Lord’s Prayer in Luke 11:

God, bring me closer to You.

God, I surrender to Your agenda.

God, give me what I need today.

God, keep me in a right relationship with You and others.

God, keep me on the right path for my life today.

Day 1: Read Luke 11:1-4. How have you learned to grow in your prayer life? What are some key lessons you have learned? How does Jesus’ answer to the question about teaching the disciples to pray help you today to grow in your prayer life?

Day 2: Read Luke 11:11-13. Consider your walk with God over the last month, how have you grown closer to God? What might be the next step He invites you to take to grow closer to Him as Father and to hallow His name?

Day 3: Read Luke 22:42. Where have you been pursuing your way instead of God’s way? What do you need to surrender to His agenda?

Day 4: Read Luke 11:5-8. More than just daily bread, Jesus invites us to bring all our needs to God. What do you need from God today?

Day 5: Read Romans 3:23-24. Turns out forgiveness is a gift that keeps giving. God forgives you so that you can forgive others. Where do you need forgiveness from God today? Who do you need to forgive?

Day 6: Read Luke 11:9-10. What tempts you to sin? What wrong path are you on or about to travel? What steps do you need to take to get back on track with God?
