Ajaran Yesus Dalam Berdoa | Jesus' Teaching On Prayer

Indo

Pembacaan Alkitab: Lukas 11

Ketika murid-murid-Nya meminta diajari bagaimana berdoa, Tuhan Yesus mengajarkan mereka "Doa Bapa Kami". Dalam doa ini kita diajarkan untuk mengaku siapa Tuhan itu dengan memanggil-Nya sebagai Bapa, lalu memuji nama-Nya dan memproklamasikan kehendak-Nya, yakni untuk kerajaan-Nya datang. Lalu kita baru meminta untuk kebutuhan kita, bukan untuk hal-hal yang berlebihan dan yang hanya untuk kesenangan belaka, tetapi kita diajarkan untuk meminta secukupnya. Lalu kita meminta pengampunan dan kitapun parlu melepaskan pengampunan itu pula kepada orang lain dan agar Tuhan yang memimpin jalan kita. Setelahnya Tuhan Yesus juga mengajarkan agar kita tidak takut meminta kepada Tuhan, sebab Ia adalah Bapa yang mengasihi anak-anak-Nya. Ia juga ajarkan agar kita meminta Roh Kudus dicurahkan kepada kita oleh Bapa agar kita dapat dipimpin oleh Roh Kudus. Beginilah kita perlu berdoa kepada Tuhan, yakni kita mengaku siapa Tuhan itu bagi kita, memuji nama-Nya, meminta akan kehendak-Nya, lalu menaikkan permohonan kita akan kebutuhan kita dan bukan apa yang kita ingini lalu meminta pengampunan dan pimpinan Tuhan. Dengan begitu setiap hari kita diingatkan bahwa Tuhanlah Bapa kita, Tuhanlah pemimpin kita dan kita hdup bagi Tuhan. Kita juga diingatkan akan anugrah-Nya'bahwa pengampunan ada di tangan-Nya dan kitapun patut mengampuni orang lain. Jadi, biarlah kita belajar berdoa seperti yang Yesus ajarkan.

Bible Reading: Luke 11

When His disciples asked Him to teach them how to pray, the Lord Jesus taught them, "The Lord's Prayer". In this prayer we are taught to confess who He is by calling Him Father, then to praise His name and proclaim His will, that is for His kingdom to come. Then we ask for our needs, not for extravagant things and just for pleasure, but we are taught to ask in sufficiency. Then we ask for forgiveness and we also need to release forgiveness unto others and so that the Lord will lead our path. Afterwards, the Lord also taught us to not be afraid to ask from the Lord, for He is a Father who loves His children. He also taught us to ask for Holy Spirit to be poured out by the Father so that we may be led by the Holy Spirit. This is how we should pray to the LOrd, that is, we confess who the Lord is for us, praise His name, ask for His will, then lift up our supplications for our needs and not what we want, then ask for forgiveness and His guidance. That way we are reminded everyday that the Lord is our Father, the Lord is our leader and we live for the LOrd. We are also reminded by His grace that forgiveness is in His hands and we also need to forgive others. So, let us learn to pray as Jesus taught.
