When we pray, “Give us this day our daily bread” (Matthew 6:11), we are asking God to provide for our immediate needs. This petition acknowledges our dependence on God for the basic sustenance required for daily living, both physically and spiritually. It emphasizes the importance of relying on God for our daily provisions rather than accumulating excess for the future.
