What Is Hallowed?
October 4, 2024
Your kingdom come. Your will be done on earth as it is in heaven.
Matthew 6:10
Recommended Reading: Matthew 6:8-13
Last year this answer appeared in the $200 box on the television program Jeopardy: “Our Father which art in heaven, ________ be thy name.” The three contestants looked perplexed as the buzzer sounded. The host supplied the question: “What is hallowed?” How tragic that people no longer know the Lord’s Prayer!
Every phrase of that famous prayer is meaningful. For example, when we pray, “Your kingdom come,” we are really praying for the Millennial reign of Christ. The Lord’s Kingdom is “already but not yet.” When He came the first time, Jesus established the Kingdom of His Church. Christ-followers are the vanguard of His Kingdom. We are already here, serving Him now. But the ultimate fulfillment is yet to come. When He comes again, He will establish an earthly, physical, geographical, political Kingdom. He will reign over the earth from His throne in Jerusalem.
Every time we pray, “Your kingdom come on earth as it is in heaven,” we are looking forward to God’s glorious thousand-year-long answer! It’s still important to know—and to pray!—the Lord’s Prayer.
When you pray “Thy kingdom come,” you are asking for the second coming of Jesus to this earth.
