The Lord’s Prayer
“And do not lead us into temptation, but deliver us from the evil one.” In this final request of the Lord’s Prayer, Jesus teaches His disciples how to pray honestly about temptation, testing, and God’s protection. This message explores what Jesus meant by temptation, how the same pattern appears in the testing of Eve in the garden and Jesus in the wilderness, and how this prayer invites us to trust our Father to guard our hearts and deliver us from the evil that opposes His purposes in our lives.
