“Thy kingdom come. Thy will be done, on earth as it is in heaven” (Matthew 6:10).
You can’t say this prayer and without surrendering your kingdom. To say this prayer and mean it assumes surrendering our dreams, our loyalties, our preferences, and our kingdom plans.
Did you know that God is not a republican? God is not a democrat. In fact, God is not even American! You see, Jesus tells us that “God so loved the WORLD that he gave his only Son, that whosoever would believe in him will have everlasting life” (John 3:16).
“Thy kingdom come. Thy will be done…”
You may not agree with President Trump. You may not even like him. But did you know when God thought about eternity, God could not imagine spending eternity without him in it. So God sent his Son to die for President Trump. That’s how much God loves him.
You may not agree with Joe Biden. You may not even like him. But do you know when God thought about eternity, God could not imagine spending eternity without him in it. So God sent his Son to die for Joe Biden. That’s how much God loves him.
“Thy kingdom come. Thy will be done…”
Christian, you can’t say this prayer without surrendering your kingdom.
