Lord, since You have caused all Holy Scriptures to be written for our learning,
grant that we may so hear them, read, mark, learn, and inwardly digest them

through Jesus Christ, Your Son, our Lord, who lives and reigns with You and the
Holy Spirit, one God, now and forever. Amen. (A68)

Catechism Reading:
The Second Petition
Thy kingdom come.
What does this mean?
The kingdom of God
certainly comes by itself without our prayer,
but we pray in this
petition that it may come to us also.
How does God's kingdom
come?
God's kingdom comes
when our heavenly Father
gives us His Holy Spirit,
so that by His grace we
believe His holy Word
and lead godly lives here
in time and there in eternity.
The Third Petition
Thy will be done on earth
as it is in heaven.
What does this mean?
The good and gracious will
of God is done even without our prayer,
but we pray in this
petition that it may be done among us also.
How is God's will done?
God's will is done
when he breaks and hinders
every evil plan and purpose
of the devil, the world,
and our sinful nature,
which do not want us to
hallow God's name
or let His kingdom come;
and when He strengthens and
keeps us firm in His Word and faith
until we die.
This is His good and
gracious will.
