In a world that exalts self-sufficiency and personal success, the Kingdom principle of praying ‘Thy Kingdom come’ stands in stark contrast. When we pray for God’s Kingdom to advance, we surrender our control and acknowledge His sovereignty. Matthew 6:10 (ESV) teaches us to seek God’s will above our own, inviting His rule into every area of…

August 20: Disciple-Making that Multiplies

Verified

In a culture that values individual success and recognition, the Kingdom principle of disciple-making that multiplies stands as a stark contrast.
