​In Matthew 6, Jesus taught His disciples how to pray and gave us the Lord’s Prayer.  One element of the prayer that I don’t think we pray enough is the second verse:  “Your kingdom come, your will be done, on earth as it is in heaven” (Matthew 6:11). 
 
How often do we pray that God’s kingdom would come to earth?  In my observation, it seems that we often pray the opposite.  We ask God to bless our kingdoms, to preserve our nation, or prosper our country.  While the Bible does tell us to pray for our leaders and nation, our number one prayer should be that God’s kingdom would be established on earth.  We are citizens of an eternal kingdom; therefore, our first priority and greatest desire should be for God to build His kingdom.

​Our final song in our June worship set had been around for a while.  However, like all truly great worship songs, it’s timeless and continues to touch and bless hearts leading people to the throne of God in worship.
