How firm is your faith in prayers? Jesus learnt us to be very firm! - The Lord’s prayer- part 7

Core text:

For Yours is the kingdom, and the power, and the glory, forever. Amen. (Matthew 6:13 MKJV)

This text reminds me of the beginning of the Lord’s Prayer in Matthew 6:9. Here it’s all about God being praised and about His goodness!

This part of the Lord’s Prayer starts by addressing God and then talks about the kingdom of God. This is the end of the Lord’s Prayer. But in the beginning of the Lord’s Prayer we also read about the kingdom of God, then flows the physical needs of the people. This is like “Give us our daily bread” in Matthew 6:11. After that we read about the forgiveness of sins in Matthew 6:12. This is about the brokenness of people and need for forgiveness.

Now at the end of the Lord’s Prayer we read the same words as stated, by Jesus, at the beginning of the Lord’s Prayer. This last part acts as a testimony about God. He is the owner of the kingdom. He is the powerful one and He is almighty. All glory to Him and He will be forever!

It is because of the power of God that He can provide for us. For example the verse that says, “our daily bread” in Matthew 6:11. With the ending of the Lord’s Prayer we tell God that we not only know that He is powerful but that we are certain that He will provide for us on earth.

In other words, it’s all about the firmness of our faith and the Word of God!

Till next time!
