Paragraph:

2750 By entering into the holy name of the Lord Jesus we can accept, from within, the prayer he teaches us: "Our Father!" His priestly prayer fulfills, from within, the great petitions of the Lord's Prayer: concern for the Father's name; ⁴⁷ passionate zeal for his kingdom (glory); ⁴⁸ the accomplishment of the will of the Father, of his plan of salvation; ⁴⁹ and deliverance from evil. ⁵⁰
