Compare and contrast three prayers

Questions: What kind of God is being addressed in these Prayers? Who is God? What are the Characteristics of this God? Where is God? What is the relationship between God and Humanity in these Prayers (if any)? What is being asked of God in these Prayers? What is asked of the worshippers?

Three prayers are surprisingly similar to me.

First, they all expressed their concept of there is only one God. Here are quotes from each three prayers: “ the LORD our God is one LORD”(The Shema); “[For the kingdom, the power, and the glory are yours now and for ever.]”(The Lord’s Prayer); “You alone we worship. You alone we ask for help.”(The Opening).

Second, there is an obligation or promise to love God and glorify God in all prayers, especially in The Shema. It made clear that there is a command to love God and to remember and teach God’s words to their children. “And thou shalt write them upon the door posts of thy house, and upon thy gates.” In The Lord’s Prayer, it is also shown the need to glorify the God as stated “Our Father, which art in heaven, Hallowed be thy Name. Thy kingdom come...[For the kingdom, the power, and the glory are yours now and for ever.]” Also, in The Opening, they praise God as “The Most Merciful, the Ever Merciful”. There is also a command or a promise to praise and glorify God as stated “Praise be to God, the Lord of the Universe...Master of the Day of Judgment.”

Last, they all asked for guidance. I haven’t found a direct quote from The Shema, but both Christian and Muslims’ prayers showed a request from God to look after them. They both addressed a sense of humbleness from the worshippers as well as a special connection between the worshippers and their God. Here are two quotes from each prayer:

“And lead us not into temptation; But deliver us from evil.” (The Lord’s Prayer)

“Guide us on the right path; the path of those whom You have blessed, not of those who have deserved wrath, nor of the strayers.” (The Opening).

Besides these three major similarities,
