The Prayer Ends with God

The Prayer Ends With God

Matthew 6:13 (KJV)

“For thine is the kingdom, and the power, and the glory, for ever. Amen.”

What a wonderful way to conclude a prayer!

Jesus teaches us to pray with our eyes fixed not merely on our needs, but on the greatness, authority, and glory of our Heavenly Father.

Think about those words: The kingdom is His. The power is His. And the glory is His forever!

The kingdom belongs to God. He rules over all things. No ruler, trial, or circumstance can overthrow His purposes.

The power belongs to God. What is impossible for us is not impossible for Him. He saves sinners, forgives our sins, sustains us, and gives us strength to follow Jesus.

And the glory belongs to God. Our lives, our service, and everything we do should ultimately bring glory to Him.

When we pray, let's certainly bring our needs and concerns to our Heavenly Father. But let's not stop there. Let's also worship Him, acknowledge His greatness, and trust Him with everything.

Remember, we are not here to build our own kingdom. We belong to His kingdom, depend on His power, and live for His glory.

What a wonderful privilege to approach the God of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob through faith in Jesus Christ!
