(July 19, 2024) Dr Jim McClure concludes his teaching on the Lord’s Prayer…

We have previously seen that the Lord’s Prayer falls into two main sections — The Lord’s Prayer-Part 1 God’s Dominion (Matthew 6:9-10) and The Lord’s Prayer-Part 2 Our Dependency (Matthew 6:11-13a).

The prayer concludes with the words ‘For yours is the kingdom and the power and the glory forever. Amen’  (Matthew 6:13KJV and NKJV).

We describe such declarations which acknowledge God’s greatness and declare His praises as doxologies. Such as Ephesians 3:20-21, ‘Now to Him who is able to do immeasurably more than all we ask or imagine, according to His power that is at work within us, to Him be glory in the church and in Christ Jesus throughout all generations, for ever and ever! Amen.’
