One God in three persons: What does Matthew 6:5-15 reveal about what God does in me and through me (Holy Spirit)?

Matthieu 6:5–15 (NEG79)

5 Lorsque vous priez, ne soyez pas comme les hypocrites, qui aiment à prier debout dans les synagogues et aux coins des rues, pour être vus des hommes. Je vous le dis en vérité, ils ont leur récompense.

  • God the Holy Spirit helps me to pray as a child of God rather than a hypocrite. He reminds me of what Jesus Christ has done and the fact that I enjoy God’s favour because of my union with Christ. He brings me to call God our Father and he changes my desires so that I increasingly want to please God instead of seeking the approval of men.

  • God the Holy Spirit also changes me as I pray. As I learn to put God’s agenda ahead of my own, I become increasingly content with my daily bread and eager to pursue works of righteousness. He also encourages/helps me to forgive those who have done me wrong.
