SHOULD WE PRAY FOR OTHERS?   ?•*¨`*•???•*¨`*•?

Jesus Christ set the example for Christians in all things, including prayer. What did he do in that regard?  When teaching them  HOW to pray, Jesus told his disciples: ‘Whenever you pray, say, “Father, let your name be sanctified.”’” (Luke 5:16; 11:1, 2)  Jesus was showing us that prayers are to be directed to his Father, Jehovah. He alone is our Creator and the “Hearer of prayer.”—Psalm 65:2.

Christ also set the example in prayer by praying for others. The Bible tells us:  “Then young children were brought to him for him to place his hands on them and offer prayer." (Matthew 19:13) Jesus told the apostle Peter:  “But I have made supplication for you that your faith may not give out;  and you, once you have returned, strengthen your brothers.” (Luke 22:32)  Jesus encouraged us to pray for each other,  and even for those persecuting and insulting us.— Matthew 5:44;  Luke 6:28.
