This week we are finishing our fall focus on prayer with Matthew 6:13. Jesus
taught us to pray, “Lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from the evil
one.” Would God ever lead us into temptation? Why would Jesus tell us to pray
this? As we dig deeper into this request, we find it is one that Jesus himself
prayed for himself and for us. Trials and temptations are unavoidable, and
God’s guidance and protection are vital. We soon see this is a precious request
for those who are committed to follow where God leads. May God kindle our
prayers and our lives as we draw near to him.
