YOUR KINGDOM COME

When the disciples of Jesus asked him how they should pray he answered: “Pray like this:”

“Our Father, who is in heaven,
Hallowed (holy, set apart) is your name.
Your kingdom come, your will be done
On earth as it is in heaven.”

The emphasis of the entire teaching of Jesus in the Gospels is two things: The Father and The Kingdom.

The Kingdom is mentioned 104 times in the four gospels and the church is mentioned 3 times… that should tell us something. The church does not produce the Kingdom; the Kingdom produces the church. Both are important and needed.

“When you pray, say: ‘Father, hallowed be your name. Your kingdom come.” Jesus
