Between Two Kingdoms: Citizens and Exiles - a podcast by Faith comes from hearing

“Your kingdom come, Your will be done, on earth as it is in heaven.”

As familiar as these words are in the Lord’s Prayer, their meaning and significance often escapes us.



What is the Kingdom of God? What does it mean for His will to be done on earth as it is in Heaven?



In this prayer, Jesus summarized God’s plan and goal for history and creation.

The reason is simple: God is turning the entire earth into an extension of his heavenly kingdom. God is the coming King and his will will be done on earth just as fully as it’s already being done in heaven.

This is the story of the Bible - the Kingdom of God that has come, and is present here now through His Church and is yet to fully arrive!

Let's lean in now as we understand that this world is not our home. We are pilgrims here on earth; exiles from where we truly belong. Our citizenship is the Kingdom of heaven and let's learn from Daniel and his three friends how they lived as exiles in Babylon as a picture of how we also should live here in our present Babylon while waiting to return Home.



His Kingdom Comes!
