Thanksgiving Prayer - Kingdom Come!

Jesus was asked by the disciples, "Lord, teach us to pray."  Jesus began teaching by praying!  This is called the "kingdom prayer" or traditionally the "Lord's Prayer" as it was prayed by the King Himself for the manifestation of the Kingdom of God on earth.  I love teaching on this awesome prayer.  Let's take a minute during this thanksgiving season and take the sections of this prayer for us today.  Thanks be to our God for all His blessings, provisions and love during this season.

1. Our Highest Relationship.  "Our Father, which art in heaven, hallowed be Thy name".  What are some of His names?  Jehovah Jireh "God will provide", Jehovah Rapha "God who heals", Jehovah Nissi "God my Banner", Jehovah Mekoddishkem "God who Sanctifies", Jehovah Shalom "God my peace", Jehovah Saboth "God of Hosts" and Jehovah Raah "God my shepherd".       Wow!  These are just a few of His names.....
2. Our Highest Expectation. "Thy Kingdom come,"
3. Our Highest Purpose.       "Thy will be done on earth as it is in heaven"
4. Our Highest Provision.     "Give us this day our daily bread"
5. Our Highest Power.          "Forgive us our sins as we forgive those who have 
                                                 sinned against us"
6. Our Highest Protection.   "Lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil"
7. Our Highest Declaration. "For Thine is the kingdom, the power and 
                                                 the glory forever and ever."

God gave me an original music background for the "Lord's Prayer" years ago, back in the 80's in fact.  This is the piano and guitar rendition of this wonderful prayer.  Please watch this short music video of the "Lord's Prayer" and declare your thanks during this season!
