Prayer Journal "Kingdom, Power and Glory"
Even
though this phrase isn’t found in early manuscripts of the New
Testament, there is evidence that it was used in the Mass as early as
the time of the apostles. But, what do we mean when say these words?
“Thine is the Kingdom, and the Power and the Glory, forever and ever,
amen.
I think it means what it simply says. The Kingdom of God, belongs to God. As children of His inheritance, He shares it with us, and we get to participate in it as a member of the body of Christ. (For a fun study on your own, go to Bible Gateway and do a word search on “Kingdom of heaven” and “Kingdom of God”…just read through the Scriptures that match the search. I’m getting so many cool ideas for future blog posts and/or Bible studies. )
The power also belongs to Him. What power?
