In Matthew 6:9-13, Jesus gives His disciples a simple model for the content of our prayers. The first part of the model prayer is directed toward God's concerns while the second part is about our own concerns.
This "Part 2" of the exposition focuses on asking God to do three things for us:
1. Provide: Give us this day our daily bread.
2. Pardon: Forgive us our debts, as we also have forgiven our debtors.
3. Protect: Do not lead us into temptation, but deliver us from the evil one.
