BY She Reads Truth
Scripture is God-breathed and true. When we memorize it, we carry the good news of Jesus with us wherever we go.
As we read Scripture about the kingdom of God, we will memorize the Lord’s Prayer together. This week we will memorize Matthew 6:9–10.
“Our Father which art in heaven, Hallowed be thy name.
Thy kingdom come, Thy will be done in earth, as it is in heaven.
Give us this day our daily bread.
And forgive us our debts, as we forgive our debtors.
And lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil: For thine is the kingdom, and the power, and the glory, for ever. Amen.”
—Matthew 6:9–13 KJV

‘Forgive us our debts, as we forgive our debtors’. If we carry unforgiveness we cannot experience kingdom living here on earth to the full. Bitterness rots the vessel that carries it from the inside. That includes not accepting Christ’s forgiveness of our own sin. Holding on to unforgiveness robs us of feeling (& believing!) God’s great love in our own lives, & the ability to extend grace & love to others. Blessings to all on this beautiful (in Maryland) Lord’s day!

@Churchmouse I was thinking the same thing! Then I considered the accounts in the Bible of Isaiah and John’s visions of heaven. Isaiah responded with confession of sin and John fainted. I wonder what my reaction will be…

May you all celebrate this Lord’s Day -
Thy kingdom come, seeing heaven on earth…happens when God’s will is done. When we, as believers, live in humility, peace, joy, service, righteousness, and justice. On earth as it is in heaven.

“Thy will be done on earth as it is in heaven.”
In heaven the response to God’s will is always “yes!” May we respond with the same “yes!” to God’s will here on earth. -
I have said this prayer so many times but sometimes just reading something can make it hit more powerfully. Needed this today. His will. Not mine. Amen.
