Believers in Jesus are adopted into a new a family, His own. But what does it mean to have God as our Father, and what's the significance of God being "in Heaven"? Hint: It's not about His physical location.
The phrase 'Our Father, Who Art in Heaven' signifies the importance of recognizing God's authority and sovereignty as our Father. Jesus wants us to pray with the awareness of God's authority and our familial connection as brothers and sisters. God's fatherly goodness and sovereign rule over everything should inform and shape our prayers. By addressing God as 'Our Father, Who Art in Heaven', we acknowledge His authority and seek His will above our own. The Lord's Prayer is a guide to praying with the mindset of honoring God's authority and remembering our relationship as His children.
