For Yours is the Kingdom

“For Yours is the kingdom and the power and the glory forever. Amen.”
Matthew 6:13c

This post wraps up our series on the Lord’s Prayer by focusing on the doxology in Matthew 6:13c. May these reflections encourage your spiritual growth and help keep this prayer present in your daily life.

This powerful doxology is a declaration of worship, surrender, and perspective. After lifting up our needs and seeking God’s guidance and protection, we end the prayer with our eyes fixed on the majesty of God.

“For Yours is the kingdom” reminds us that God is in control. His reign is eternal and unshakable. No matter what chaos surrounds us, we belong to a kingdom that cannot be moved (Hebrews 12:28). We are citizens of heaven, governed by the love and justice of our King.

“And the power” declares that God is not only sovereign—He is strong. He has all power to heal, to restore, to save, and to transform. There is no obstacle too great, no burden too heavy, and no heart too broken for Him.

“And the glory” calls us to live for something greater than ourselves. It reminds us that our lives are meant to reflect His beauty, His goodness, and His truth. We don’t pray just to get answers—we pray to glorify God.

“Forever” seals it all. His kingdom, His power, and His glory are not temporary. They endure. Our prayers rest in the hands of the Eternal One, whose faithfulness never fades.

Life Application:

Today, end your prayers in praise. Let worship rise in your heart. Acknowledge God's rule over your life, trust in His strength, and seek to glorify Him in everything you do.

Call to Prayer:

Father, 

Yours is the kingdom. Yours is the power. Yours is the glory. 

I praise You for who You are and surrender my life to Your eternal purpose. Be glorified in me today and always. 

Amen.
