When we pray, “Give us this day our daily bread” (Matthew 6:11), we are primarily asking God to provide for our immediate needs. This request acknowledges our dependence on God for the basic necessities of life, such as food and sustenance. It reflects a reliance on God's provision for our daily survival rather than focusing on material wants or greater desires.
