Matthew Lesson 25: The Lord's Prayer (Pt 2)
Matthew 6:9-13 is the text for this sermon entitled, "The Lord's Prayer (Pt. 2)."
We all long for a better world. God’s kingdom breaks into the kingdoms of the world in a transformative way. The kingdom is not the same thing as the church. They do overlap, but they are not equal.
Think of it like this…The kingdom of God is the ruling/reigning of God from his sovereign capacity over the entire world. The church is the visible kingdom of God made up of Christians who compose the body of Christ. What this basically recognizes is the visible and invisible nature of the kingdom of God!
The focus of our sermon is two-fold: to look at the dynamics of the kingdom of God, and to explore why it is an important part of our prayer life.
As a congregation of God’s people, in this prayer, Jesus challenges us to reflect on our own lives and to consider how we can participate in the advancement of God’s Kingdom.
