Praying the Lord‘s Prayer


As you pray the Lord’s Prayer, pray it with a heart to see churches all over Mauritania praying this prayer. This is a prayer designed to be prayed by groups of believers meeting together to seek the Father of the Lord Jesus Christ. Pray this prayer phrase by phrase as if you were part of a small fellowship gathering in a village, town or city in Mauritania. Pray it with a heart to see the Father change that village, town or city.

This, then, is how you should pray:
‘Our Father in heaven,
    hallowed be your name,
   your kingdom come,
your will be done,
    on earth as it is in heaven.
Give us today our daily bread.
And forgive us our debts,
    as we also have forgiven our debtors.
And lead us not into temptation,
    but deliver us from the evil one.
—Matthew 6:9-13

Pray also for the radical power of forgiveness to increase across Mauritania.

For if you forgive other people when they sin against you, your heavenly Father will also forgive you. But if you do not forgive others their sins, your Father will not forgive your sins. —Matthew 6:14-15
