Jesus Taught Us To Pray

Luke 11:1 One day Jesus was praying in a certain place. When He finished, one of the disciples said to him, "Lord, teach us to pray, just as John taught his disciples."
Luke 11:2 He said to them, "When you pray, say:
"Father, hallowed be your name, your kingdom come. {Luke 11:3} Give us each day our daily bread. {Luke 11:4} Forgive us our sins, for we also forgive everyone who sins against us. And lead us not into temptation."
Matthew 6:5 "But when you pray, do not be like the hypocrites, for they love to pray standing in the synagogues and on the street corners to be seen by men......
Matthew 6:6 "When you pray, go into your room, close the door and pray to your Father who is unseen. Then your Father, who sees what is done in secret, will reward you."
Matthew 6:9-14 "This is how you should pray"
"Our Father in heaven, hallowed be your name,
{10} Your kingdom come, Your will be done, on earth as it is in heaven.
{11} Give us this day, our daily bread.
{12} Forgive us our debts, as we also have forgiven our debtors.
{13} And lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from the evil one.
{14} For if you forgive men when they sin against you, your heavenly
Father will also forgive you. But if you do not forgive men their sins,
your Father will not forgive your sins.
