Do not lead us into temptation. In these words of the Lord's Prayer, Jesus Christ taught us to ask the Heavenly Father not to lead us into temptation, which refers to temptations to sin, various troubles, misfortunes and generally misfortunes in the world. True, misfortunes happen to people most often when they do not live according to God’s commandments or do not follow the advice of elders, parents, and bosses. But sometimes, regardless of people, misfortunes occur, for example, former orphanhood, loss of property from a fire, from a flood, from thieves, etc. Be that as it may, at any age and condition a misfortune can happen to a person. The evil spirit, this constant enemy of man, attacks him especially when he is in some kind of trouble or danger, in order to more conveniently tempt him to sin... And one sure way to get rid of destruction at this time is a heartfelt prayer to the Heavenly Father, so that He Himself, with His invisible but strong hand, would keep us from falling, preserve us from the evil spirit and help us survive the misfortune that generously happened.
Remember this, children, always tell Heavenly Father the words of the Lord’s Prayer: do not lead us into temptation, with firm faith in the strong intercession of Heavenly God the Father for us, and in any trouble, in any misfortune that befalls you, do not become discouraged and do not lose hope of receiving faithful help from God.
What else did Jesus Christ teach us to ask Heavenly Father for? Why do people have misfortunes? Can all people have misfortunes? Why are misfortunes dangerous for us? What is the surest way to get rid of death in misfortune? With what feeling should we say the words of the Lord’s Prayer: Lead us not into temptation? Repeat everything we asked Heavenly Father in the Lord's Prayer.
Deliver us from evil. This is something else that Jesus Christ taught us to ask Heavenly Father for—to deliver us from the evil one. Who and what is meant by the evil one? - The evil one means a bad, evil deed - sin, as well as an evil spirit that tempts a person to sin. Man is prone to bad, evil by nature. He knows that evil is harmful to him, that his parents, bosses and God Himself can punish him for bad deeds, but he still does evil. Therefore, Jesus Christ taught us to ask Heavenly Father for Divine help to fight evil. Indeed, a person needs to fight evil. We ourselves are prone to evil, and then the evil spirit confuses us. Sometimes he haunts a person, tempting him to sin... And what evil thoughts he will not inspire in him! “No one will know that you did something bad, be lazy, enjoy yourself, take someone else’s, etc.; after all, you will get pleasure from it, and when they ask you why you did what you shouldn’t do, don’t tell the truth, but say that I didn’t do it, come up with something to justify yourself, and that’s how the matter ends.”
This is how the evil spirit usually inclines us to evil. And so, when a weak person succumbs to his seductions (and this happens, children, to us, when we rely on our weak strengths and do not ask our Heavenly Father to help us drive away the evil spirit from ourselves), then the person becomes ashamed, his conscience begins to torment him for a bad deed. His parents or bosses will ask him: why did you do something bad, he will be ashamed to tell the truth, and he will begin to come up with something to justify himself - to lie. Thus, an evil spirit leads a weak person to deceit, the most shameful and evil deed. It is not for nothing, children, that evil deeds are also called evil deeds: they begin with the evil slander of the devil, and end with those who committed them being disingenuous before their parents or superiors. We need, children, to more earnestly ask Heavenly Father to deliver us from evil deeds, that is, sins, and especially from the devil, who tempts us into evil deeds.
What else did Jesus Christ teach us to ask Heavenly Father for? Who and what is meant by the evil one? Can a person get rid of evil without God's help? How does the devil persuade a person to do evil? Why does a person lie after doing something bad? What is another name for evil? Say everything you asked Heavenly Father to do in the Lord’s Prayer.
For Yours is the kingdom, and the power, and the glory forever. Amen. We, children, asked the Heavenly Father for everything we needed; They asked for everything that was needed for a prosperous life on earth and for eternal bliss in heaven. But will Heavenly Father give us what we asked of Him? He will and will always give, if only we ask Him with firm faith and thank Him from a pure heart for all the mercies that we receive from Him. Therefore, Jesus Christ taught us at the end of the Lord's Prayer to glorify the Heavenly Father with the following words: For Thine is the kingdom, and the power, and the glory forever. These words of the Lord's Prayer are called doxology, because in them we glorify Heavenly Father as the Great King and Almighty God, in whose power our life and our well-being are. Through heartfelt praise, or glorification of the Heavenly Father, we can thank Him for everything we receive from Him.
Let us, children, remember this and beware of angering the Heavenly Father by our inattention to His infinite greatness and power, and especially by our ingratitude for the mercies we receive from Him. In church terms, the doxology of the Lord’s Prayer sounds like this: For Thine is the kingdom, and the power, and the glory forever. Amen. Here the word yako is said instead of for. Amen, you know, children, why is it added to prayers? Tell me.
Have we, children, asked ourselves anything else from Heavenly Father? Will He give us what we asked of Him? With what words did Jesus Christ teach us to end the Lord's Prayer? What are these words called? What do we express in praising Heavenly Father? What should we remember most in life and what should we beware of? What does the doxology of the Lord's Prayer sound like in the church? What words of colloquial speech are said differently in the church way? How do you say the word for in church?
