The Apostles’ Creed*
I believe in God the Father Almighty,
Creator of heaven and earth.
And in Jesus Christ His only Son our Lord;
who was conceived by the Holy Spirit,
born of the Virgin Mary, suffered under Pontius Pilate,
was crucified, dead, and buried;
He descended into hell; the third day He rose again
from the dead; He ascended into heaven,
and sitteth on the right hand of God the Father Almighty;
from thence He shall come to judge the quick and the dead.
I believe in the Holy Spirit; the holy Church;
the communion of saints; the forgiveness of sins;
and life everlasting, Amen
The Bible teaches us how to PRAY…
The Lord’s Prayer
9 “This, then, 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 today our daily bread.
12 And forgive us our debts,
as we also have forgiven our debtors.
13 And lead us not into temptation,[a]
but deliver us from the evil one.[b]’
for yours is the kingdom and the power and the glory forever. Amen.
Matthew 6:9-13
Pray the Armor of God on yourself, your family, our President, America, and all nations…
Put on all of God’s armor so that you will be able to stand firm against all strategies of the devil.
Ephesian 6:11
The Bible leaves us in no doubt that believers ought to pray:
“Men ought always to pray and not to faint” (Luke 18:1).
“Pray without ceasing” (1 Thessalonians 5:17).
“In everything by prayer and supplication let your requests be made known unto God” (Philippians 4:6, R.S.V.).
