Christ Community Chapel - Hudson Campus

In this message, Pastor Zach uses Matthew 6:10 to help us reflect on what it truly means to pray “your kingdom come, your will be done.” It is easy to acknowledge the need for a regime change in the world, but we are slower to admit the need for a new King in our hearts and minds. In prayer, we can go to God with our despair and our discouragement over the broken kingdom of the earth. But we also must acknowledge the state of our own hearts and our desperate need to surrender to our Savior. If left to our own devices, our kingdoms will always lead to death. But, Jesus’ kingdom begins with death and births an eternal life. Through Jesus, we see a prayerful and purposeful life of surrender to God. Surrender is vital to the Christian life. It is essential to pray that we have the power to bring a heavenly kingdom to our hurting earth. Your kingdom come, God. Your will be done. On earth, as it is in heaven.
