On Earth As In Heaven

In this powerful exploration of the Lord's Prayer, guest speaker Jon Campbell delves into the profound meaning behind the phrase 'Your kingdom come, Your will be done, on earth as it is in heaven.' We journey through two pivotal gardens in Scripture - Eden and Gethsemane - to understand the spiritual battle for our hearts. In Eden, we witness humanity's fall as they believe the lie that God is not good or not good enough. In stark contrast, Gethsemane reveals Jesus' ultimate trust in the Father's goodness, even in the face of immense suffering. This juxtaposition challenges us to examine our own hearts: Are we building our kingdoms or surrendering to God's? The message reminds us that praying for God's kingdom to come is a dangerous yet transformative prayer, one that risks our comfort but promises unparalleled fulfillment. As we contemplate this, we're encouraged to trust in God's goodness and to pray with both surrender and expectation, knowing that His kingdom will always outshine and out-satisfy our own.
