It is important to note that after the Lord’s Prayer from the mouth of the Saviour, there is no “amen.” The lesson in prayer is not over. The simple elementals of prayer have been taught; now the Lord Jesus goes on further into the marvelous realm of intercessory prayer, prayers for others. Here He teaches the disciples to enter into His own brokenhearted burden and pleading for the salvation of sinners. In Luke 11:5-8, Jesus continues the lesson on prayer:

“And he said unto them, Which of you shall have a friend, and shall go unto him at midnight, and say unto him, Friend, lend me three loaves; For a friend of mine in his journey is come to me, and I have nothing to set before him? And he from within shall answer and say, Trouble me not: the door is now shut, and my children are with me in bed; I cannot rise and give thee.
