Book: Matthew

This message explores Jesus’ teaching on prayer, reminding us that it is not about outward show or many words, but a sincere and personal relationship with God. Through the Lord’s Prayer, we are given a pattern for bringing our needs, forgiveness, and trust before our heavenly Father, both privately and together as a church family. As we journey through Lent, we are encouraged to deepen this relationship through honest prayer and attentive listening to God’s voice.

This message reflects on Jesus’ time of fasting and temptation in the wilderness, reminding us that true life is found not in physical or material things, but in our relationship with God. It highlights that Lent is not just about giving things up, but about drawing closer to God and aligning our hearts with His purposes. We are encouraged to approach fasting with sincerity, seeking not only spiritual growth but also opportunities to care for others in love.
