Title The Lord's Prayer (Matt. 06:9-13)
Content Our Father in Heaven Prayer is said to be a conversation with God in communion with God by those who have a correct understanding of God. If you think of it as a place, that would be a big mistake. From 1 Kings 8:27 and Acts 7:49, we know that God is a Spirit, and therefore has no place of comfort, that is, He is everywhere.
This expression means that God cannot be limited to a certain area and is omnipresent in all things, because there is no other suitable expression other than that He is in heaven, that is, He cannot express His majesty any more. will be.
2) We! The word "we" is repeated six times in the Lord's Prayer because the Lord's Prayer is a prayer consciously offered as one of the believers of all mankind who have received forgiveness of sins through the Lord Jesus Christ. That is, we must know that it is a church prayer.
3) Our “Father”! We sinners dare to call God Abba, Father, and the blessing of being able to pray to God with a wish (Romans 8:15) is “Through Jesus Christ as the mediator, which presupposes the redemption of the resurrection of Jesus Christ”, God is the Father. It should be borne in mind that it can be called We must know that prayer with the assumption of Christ grants our desires and that those who confess their sins and sins can be forgiven.
1st wish: sanctify your name1) “sanctify your name”! It is the first wish among prayers for the glory of God. There are many our own needs and urgent desires, but rather than them, “God be glorified” should come first.
Rather than glorifying God, we must confess that we are still unable to deviate from human-centered prayer on the human side, and we should adopt the exemplary principle of Githersun that the Lord taught us. It is a name that points to and denotes.
(a) Elohim Emphasizes that God is strong, powerful, and capable of fear.
(b) Elyon A name that calls attention to the praise of the Most High as an object of honor and worship.
(c) Adonai In general, Lord, the owner and ruler of all mankind.
(d) El-Shaddai This is a name used as a source of blessing and comfort in the Old Testament patriarchal times.
(ㅁ) Jehovah, Yahweh (Jehovah, Yahweh) It is recognized as the most sacred and most special name.
(f) Jehovah of hosts is speaking of angelic forces.
2) Let him land! God exists as God regardless of human attitude. Therefore, even if men do not worship God as God, the existence of God is not impaired. This is because God is self-sufficient. In the end, when the crimes that humans commit, He is the God who uses even the crimes of those humans to receive glory.
The first wish, “Hallowed be your name,” is a prayer that our members must continue without limit. Our lives are due to the price of our sins, and when our lives are exhausted, we must all die. How can we say that God's name be sanctified without limits is what our saints continue to do even after they go to heaven, that is, we are on this right earth. This is because, of course, the prayer, "Hallowed be thy name," in life must continue in heaven.
2nd wish: Kingdom come. The 2nd wish is to become the backbone for God's name to be sanctified in the coming of God's kingdom, which says, "Your kingdom come. Then, the coming of the kingdom of God will come when the will of God, the third wish, “Thy will be done on earth as it is in heaven,” is fulfilled on earth. ? ) Kingdom come! “The Kingdom” is the “Kingdom of God” as taught in the Bible. That is, it means, “May the kingdom of Hanani come upon this earth as well.” And when we say “Kingdom of God”, we can first refer to the place where God’s dominion takes place, the extent to which God’s dominion extends, that is, it means dominion, rule, and sovereignty.
More specifically, it is a place where the power of salvation, God's justice, and God's blessings reach, and where God's Word is realized on earth.
2) The Kingdom of God! The understanding of the prayer, “Your kingdom come,” is to see that the kingdom of God is now being realized by Jesus, and at the same time, the kingdom of God will be completed at the second coming of the Lord Jesus Christ. In other words, it is a prayer that is prayed in anticipation and hope for the completion of the kingdom of God by Jesus Christ, who returns as the judge of the historical end. In other words, the kingdom of God can be summarized as “present and future”.
3) The meaning of "Thy kingdom come" can be seen to be related to evangelism in a broad sense.
The destruction of Satan's kingdom and the rise and fall of the kingdom of grace are seen through evangelism. Here, the rise and rise of the kingdom of God is not expanded by force like the kingdoms of the common world, but through spiritual means as the spiritual kingdom of God. means to be expanded by The spiritual means is the expansion of the kingdom of God by the “Word and the Holy Spirit,” that is, the mission of the Word and the Holy Spirit.
4) Also, it can be seen that the meaning of "Thy kingdom come" is a theistic battle against culture.
The concept of the kingdom of God is a concept that goes beyond the church by controlling the hearts of individual members, controlling the hearts of family members, and controlling the hearts of the members of the church.
To put it more concisely, it is a "theistic view of life" centered on God, and furthermore, a "theistic view of the world".
3rd Wish: God's will in heaven and on earth
