Matt 6 esv

True Christianity involves a personal relationship with "your Father," and this phrase appears seven times through to v18; whether giving, or praying, or fasting, we do it for our Father. This loving devotion is to Him and for Him, and not to be seen by men. Yet this is also the divine reward, as in v4, 6, 18; John When Jesus teaches about giving, about prayer, about fasting, He does not command these things, but assumes His followers will do them;. Someone put it this way; 'Help those who aren't likely to help you in return, and do so even if nobody is watching. There is a rebuke from those who seek glory for themselves, and therefore deny God His rightful glory. The word 'reward' is better translated as 'flourish' or 'blossom. Our Father knows what we need before we ask, and prayer reminds us of our needs, and of our dependence upon Him, and of His power to meet our needs. Yet prayer is not a 'shopping list' of our concerns, but rather a communion with the loving Father; our requests flow from that, with a confidence that He already knows, and therefore has heard the cry of our hearts. Our confidence is that, ultimately, His will comes to pass. Here is daily dependence upon God, and daily provision from God; this was clearly seen in that culture. Our scheme of monthly salaries and weekly shopping may disguise these things, but the prayer remains true for us also. He still provides. The teaching here, consistent with that for giving and praying, is to hide the obvious appearance of fasting, so that others do not notice. Those who seek to attract attention make a sad face; should not fasting produce joy!
