When you think of the Kingdom of God, one of your first thoughts is probably that Jesus is the King of the Kingdom of God. And rightly so, because Jesus is the King of Kings and the Lord of Lords. He fulfills the prophecies given to King David that one his descendants will have an eternal Kingdom that shall never end. And of course, on the cross, Jesus suffered and died under a sign that said “Jesus of Nazareth, King of the Jews.”

But now in the Lord’s Prayer, you have to switch your thinking a little bit. In the Lord’s Prayer, the prayer that Jesus gives us, we are addressing God the Father as King! We are asking that His Kingdom Comes! We are asking Him to work in our lives as our King.

Thy Kingdom Come!

What a joy to know the King as your Father in Heaven; and that He loves you so much! Amen!
