  • The end of the Lord's Prayer teaches us that God is there to deal with all of our requests. For Yours is the Kingdom and the Power and the Glory.
  • These petitions in the Lord's Prayer are not teaching God of course, they are reminders for us.
  • God is there for every moment of our lives.
  • We need to keep these petitions in front of us at all times as constant reminders for us to look to God.
  • Only God can give us ultimate freedom; freedom from sin.
  • We end our prayer by acknowledging that God has all of the Power and all of the Glory. All creation shows God's Glory. Forgiveness shows us God's Glory.
