“Your Kingdom Come”
Greet People
Today is the 3 rd part of the series titled Dominion and
Vision. I only pray that I can do it justice because every
aspect of it will change your life. You may hear some
topics I have covered before but I believe if possible I
can unfold them and break new ground beginning today.
I want to quickly get with my thoughts titled, “Your
Kingdom Come”
Matthew 6:9-13 NASB
9 “Pray, then, in this way: ‘Our Father who is in heaven,
Hallowed be Your name.
10 ‘Your kingdom come. Your will be done, On earth as
it is in heaven.
11 ‘Give us this day our daily bread.
12 ‘And forgive us our debts, as we also have forgiven
our debtors.
13 ‘And do not lead us into temptation, but deliver us
from evil. [For Yours is the kingdom and the power and
the glory forever. Amen.’]Page 2
I am not going to spend a lot of time on this prayer but it
is something you need to commit to praying every day.
That will create within the house a spirit of agreement.
The more of us that pray this prayer the stronger the
influence it will have in us corporately. There by
increasing our individual faith in the promises of God
because of a unified purpose.
For the purposes of this series unless I otherwise note.
Kingdom comes from the Greek word bas-il-l’ah and it
means, “royal power, kingship, dominion, rule. of the
royal power of Jesus as the triumphant Messiah. of
the royal power and dignity conferred on Christians in
the Messiah’s kingdom”
The word is used 119 times in the Gospels alone. 54 in
Matthew and 44 in Luke. Both of which record the
Lord’s prayer.
Over the last couple of years I have looked to this
prayer and it’s relevance to the church. Even more so the
last few weeks. All my life I have prayed it but never
with the expectation of His kingdom that I have now.
To me it was a prayer that honored God, taught us to
rely on Him and recognized that everything was His.
It is so much more and you will find it out when you
pray each day with faith that God will reveal its power.Page 3
Luke 12:28-32 NASB
28 But if God so clothes the grass in the field, which is
alive today and tomorrow is thrown into the furnace,
how much more will He clothe you? You men of little
faith!
(faith comes from a Greek word which means, trusting too little, and a root
word which means, little or small, of degree or intensity.)
29 And do not seek what you will eat and what you will
drink, and do not keep worrying.
(worrying from the Greek means, to cause one to waver or fluctuate in the
mind , to agitate or harass with cares, and to make anxious.)
30 For all these things the nations of the world eagerly
seek; but your Father knows that you need these things.
31 But seek His kingdom, and these things will be
added to you.
32 Do not be afraid, little flock, for your Father has
chosen gladly to give you the kingdom.
(the royal power and dignity conferred on Christians in the Messiah’s
kingdom)
Preach the Cross
Christ with these passages is trying to get His listeners,
and us, to change our thinking. Humans tend to focus
more on what they can’t do, than what He can do in us
and for us. We look at the storms, the circumstances and
ignore our Kingdom authority that the Father has given
us through the work of Christ on the cross.Page 4
Preach restoration. Freedom from The Evil One and
from our past.
Most of us here have repented. Some, like me have to
repent every day. Remember that true repentance is to
change our way of thinking.
Colossians 3:1-2 NASB
3 Therefore if you have been raised up with Christ, keep
seeking the things above, where Christ is, seated at the
right hand of God.
2 Set your mind on the things above, not on the things
that are on earth.
I love the way the Message Bible says this.
Colossians 3:1-2 Message
So if you’re serious about living this new resurrection
life with Christ, act like it. Pursue the things over which
Christ presides. Don’t shuffle along, eyes to the ground,
absorbed with the things right in front of you. Look up,
and be alert to what is going on around Christ—that’s
where the action is. See things from his perspective.
PreachPage 5
Verse 2 says set your mind. The Greek word translated
mind means, to have understanding. It is used in a way
to call for agreement. Agreement with God and
directing our minds toward Him.
Preach (to bring into agreement-Thy Kingdom come
Thy will be done on earth as it is in heaven)
Ephesians 3:20-21 NASB
20 Now to Him who is able to do far more abundantly
beyond all that we ask or think, according to the power
that works within us,
21 to Him be the glory in the church and in Christ Jesus
to all generations forever and ever. Amen.
This passage also comes alive in the Message
Ephesians 3:20-21 Message
God can do anything, you know—far more than you
could ever imagine or guess or request in your wildest
dreams! He does it not by pushing us around but by
working within us, his Spirit deeply and gently within
us.
Glory to God in the church!
Glory to God in the Messiah, in Jesus!
Glory down all the generations!
Glory through all millennia! Oh, yes!Page 6
In verse 20 the word think comes from a Greek word
which means, to perceive with the mind, to understand,
to have understanding, to think upon, heed, ponder,
consider.
In the MRV it means His ability is greater than mine.
The dreams He plants in me are bigger than I could
have ever dreamed. The understanding that comes to us
through the Holy Spirit is greater than our natural minds
can comprehend.
Preach (to bring into agreement-Thy Kingdom come
Thy will be done on earth as it is in heaven)
