Actually, our Lord's prayer was first spoken 400 years before Christ.
When the Jews were allowed to return from Babylon, they not only must re build the temple, but learn the ways of the one true God they had forgotten. They gathered a council oi their wisest men in Jerusalem, they put together the ways of God to teach the people. This is the prayer, in a much longer version, the people were to pray each day. Their version of the Lord's prayer is not in our scriptures, but the Jews still use the longer prayer that Christ shortened.

yeah it’s pretty amazing God taught man how to pray and all about prayer
Jesus was a prayer , constantly he would go off alone and pray for hours there’s alot of examples
“Now when all the people were baptized, it came to pass, that Jesus also being baptized, and praying, the heaven was opened,”
Luke 3:21 KJV
“And it came to pass in those days, that he went out into a mountain to pray, and continued all night in prayer to God.”
Luke 6:12 KJV
“And when he had sent the multitudes away, he went up into a mountain apart to pray: and when the evening was come, he was there alone.”
Matthew 14:23 KJV
Even when he was under pressure sorrowful frightened of what was ahead he prayed even at his weakest
“Then cometh Jesus with them unto a place called Gethsemane, and saith unto the disciples, Sit ye here, while I go and pray yonder. And he took with him Peter and the two sons of Zebedee, and began to be sorrowful and very heavy.
Then saith he unto them, My soul is exceeding sorrowful, even unto death: tarry ye here, and watch with me. And he went a little further, and fell on his face, and prayed, saying, O my Father, if it be possible, let this cup pass from me: nevertheless not as I will, but as thou wilt.
And he cometh unto the disciples, and findeth them asleep, and saith unto Peter, What, could ye not watch with me one hour? Watch and pray, that ye enter not into temptation: the spirit indeed is willing, but the flesh is weak.
He went away again the second time, and prayed, saying, O my Father, if this cup may not pass away from me, except I drink it, thy will be done.
And he came and found them asleep again: for their eyes were heavy. And he left them, and went away again, and prayed the third time, saying the same words.”
Matthew 26:36-44 KJV
his prayer raised the dead
“Then they took away the stone from the place where the dead was laid. And Jesus lifted up his eyes, and said, Father, I thank thee that thou hast heard me. And I knew that thou hearest me always: but because of the people which stand by I said it, that they may believe that thou hast sent me.
And when he thus had spoken, he cried with a loud voice, Lazarus, come forth. And he that was dead came forth, bound hand and foot with graveclothes: and his face was bound about with a napkin. Jesus saith unto them, Loose him, and let him go.”
John 11:41-44 KJV
And amen he also prayed for believers in John 17
I think people call it the Lord’s Prayer because the lord is teaching about prayer in those verses “ lord teach us to pray”
