38 Timeless Bible Verses on Praying Like Jesus
Matthew 6:5-15 (NLT)
“And when you pray, don’t be like the hypocrites who love to pray publicly on street corners and in the synagogues where everyone can see them. I tell you the truth, that is all the reward they will ever get. But when you pray, go away by yourself, shut the door behind you, and pray to your Father in private. Then your Father, who sees everything, will reward you. When you pray, don’t babble on and on as people of other religions do. They think their prayers are answered merely by repeating their words again and again. Don’t be like them, for your Father knows exactly what you need even before you ask him. Pray like this: Our Father in heaven, may your name be kept holy. May your Kingdom come soon. May your will be done on earth, as it is in heaven. Give us today the food we need, and forgive us our sins, as we have forgiven those who sin against us. And don’t let us yield to temptation, but rescue us from the evil one. If you forgive those who sin against you, your heavenly Father will forgive you. But if you refuse to forgive others, your Father will not forgive your sins.”
Luke 11:1-4 (NLT)
“Jesus was praying in a certain place. When he finished, one of his disciples said to him, ‘Lord, teach us to pray, just as John taught his disciples.’ Jesus said to them, ‘This is how you should pray: “Father, may your name be honored. May your Kingdom come. Give us each day the food we need, and forgive us our sins, for we also forgive everyone who sins against us. And don’t let us yield to temptation.”’”
Matthew 7:7-11 (NLT)
“Keep on asking, and you will receive what you ask for. Keep on seeking, and you will find. Keep on knocking, and the door will be opened to you. For everyone who asks receives. Everyone who seeks finds. And to everyone who knocks, the door will be opened. You parents—if your children ask for a loaf of bread, do you give them a stone instead? Or if they ask for a fish, do you give them a snake? Of course not! So if you sinful people know how to give good gifts to your children, how much more will your heavenly Father give good gifts to those who ask him.”
John 14:13-14 (NLT)
“And I will do whatever you ask in my name, so that the Son can bring glory to the Father. You may ask me for anything in my name, and I will do it.”

John 16:23-24 (NLT)

“Two men went up to the Temple to pray…The Pharisee stood by himself and prayed this prayer: ‘I thank you, God, that I am not like other people—greedy, dishonest, adulterous—or even like this tax collector. I fast twice a week and give a tenth of all I get.’ But the tax collector stood at a distance and would not even look up to heaven as he prayed. He beat his chest in sorrow, saying, ‘God, have mercy on me, a sinner.’ I tell you, this sinner, not the Pharisee, went home made right with God. For those who exalt themselves will be humbled, and those who humble themselves will be exalted.”
Matthew 21:21-22 (NLT)
“Jesus replied, ‘I tell you the truth, if you have faith and don’t doubt, you can do things like this and much more. You can even say to this mountain, “May you be lifted up and thrown into the sea,” and it will happen. If you believe, you will receive whatever you ask for in prayer.’”
Luke 11:9-13 (NLT)
“So I say to you: Ask and you will receive; seek and you will find; knock and the door will be opened to you. For everyone who asks receives. Everyone who seeks finds. And to everyone who knocks, the door will be opened. You parents—if your children ask for a loaf of bread, do you give them a stone? Or if they ask for a fish, do you give them a snake? Of course not! If you then, though you are evil, know how to give good gifts to your children, how much more will your Father in heaven give the Holy Spirit to those who ask him.”
Matthew 18:19-20 (NLT)
