his verse is the lead in to the Lords Prayer. Which, if not initially, now seems to kind of be an example that contradicts Jesus' instructions in Mathew 6:7:
It is typically considered that the Lord's Prayer is a
pattern to follow in praying. In other words, rather than simply reciting "forgive us our sins..." one should deal with specific sins which you yourself are guilty of. And when asking to "give us this day, our daily bread." we should be bringing our specific, daily needs to him.
Maybe it's Jesus being against organized religion.
He certainly had his most harsh words for those who were most "religious." IMO, the problem with organized religion is that it is all too easy to make the organized religious practices themselves the focus and primary significance rather than the purpose behind those practices. So for this case as an example, praying the Lord's Prayer verbatim can become a religious practice with no real meaning that becomes the focus rather than the actual principals behind it.

Whoever calls me ignorant shares my own opinion. Sorrowfully and tacitly I recognize my ignorance, when I consider how much I lack of what my mind in its craving for knowledge is sighing for... I console myself with the consideration that this belongs to our common nature. - Francesco Petrarca
"Nothing is easier than to persuade people who want to be persuaded and already believe." - another Petrarca gem.
Ignorance is a most formidable opponent rivaled only by arrogance; but when the two join forces, one is all but invincible.
