About the author

William F Johnson

William (Bill) Johnson and his wife Rita live in Broken Arrow, Oklahoma and have been happily married for over fifty years. They have been in ministry together since 1980 and have taught classes and workshops throughout the US and overseas. During the past years of ministry, Bill often ministered to pastors and church leaders. In 2001, Bill & Rita - along with some sympathetic friends - established Aslan Ministries, Inc. a non-profit corporation with the purpose of encouraging and equipping the church and its leaders. Aslan Ministries Inc. provides counseling, coaching and in-person workshops on discipleship, ministry, prayer, leadership, and spiritual development. Bill began writing in elementary school and has continued throughout his career in industry before entering the ministry. As an electronics engineer and executive, he was responsible for the curricula development, technical writing, and teaching for the military and aerospace fields. After many years of climbing the corporate ladder and getting near the top in his field, Bill realized he had been climbing the wrong ladder. He then walked away from corporate life and entered ministry. Bill's undergraduate studies were in Electrical engineering, Mathematics, (Georgia Tech) and economics (University of South Alabama) and he has a Master's degree in Theology from Fuller Theological Seminary. Bill's writing combines personal story and unique insight with an orthodox Christian theology in a style that explains life issues in an easy-to-read form. He is working on a series of books on the ministry of Jesus to encourage and equip the church to continue Jesus' ministry. The first two books, "Pray Like Jesus" and "Heal Like Jesus" are now available. The third book in the series will be out his year with the working title of "Love Like Jesus." In addition, Bill has eight other books available on Amazon. After years of being active in individual and team sports, he now has to be content with being a spectator.

Teach Us to Pray

When the disciples saw Jesus praying they wanted to pray like He did and have the same results so they asked Him to teach them how to pray. Jesus then gave them this teaching.

Matthew 6:9 (NKJV) ⁹ in this manner, therefore, prays: 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 And forgive us our debts, As we forgive our debtors. ¹³ And do not lead us into temptation, But deliver us from the evil one. For Yours is the kingdom and the power and the glory forever. Amen.

There are probably as many forms of prayer as there are people who pray. Jesus’ disciples came to Him and asked Him to teach them to pray as the forerunner, John, had taught his followers to pray. Jesus taught them what we now call the Lord's prayer. However, I am not sure that Jesus was teaching them the words to pray as much as He was teaching them a form of prayer. Jesus taught them to pray in His name to the Father. Thomson[1] shows that Jesus introduced an entirely new factor in the doctrine of prayer in the name of Christ.

"In Christian faith prayer means praying in the Holy Spirit, through the Son, to the Father. .... It means to pray to the Father as He has been revealed in the Son. .. So to pray in Christ's name is to pray as Christ would pray: and surely He has taught us that the true aim of prayer is complete submission to the Father's will, that He may do His will for us, in us, and through us.

When I first attended a Sunday evening service in the church where I had come to know the Lord, I noticed that the leader chose people each night to
