To the Reader:
I believe that the Lord's Prayer is the prayer that Jesus himself prayed in order to prepare himself spiritually for his own ministry (and, in particular, for his struggle against Satan.
I also believe that Jesus wants us to pray this same Prayer with him in order to strengthen us spiritually in our own struggles against Satan.
The Lord's Prayer helps us to overcome the selfishness that is within us (which is traditionally called "original sin") so that we can more perfectly unite our hearts with God's heart and desire.
