Jesus is our gracious King who helps us in our time of need, but to experience all his benefits, we must surrender our lives to him in worship.

God’s anger and judgment may be for a season, but God overtakes our sin with his unrelenting kindness and mercy.

When God sees our sin. rather than turning his back on us, he draws nearer to us with a heart of compassion and mercy.

One of the most foundational questions that a disciple of Jesus must ask is, “Who is my audience?” God alone deserves our unrivaled commitment and focus in all that we do.

We struggle to make the Lord’s Prayer a regular part of our prayer life because it can become a religious ritual or old habit for us. But when we pray this prayer regularly it has the power to attune us to the heart and will of God and empower us in his mission in bringing his kingdom to earth.

Jesus teaches us to pray for forgiveness of our debt to God, not the ability to repay the debt. God generously forgives us because of His commitment to us, and that forgiveness is more than giving a clean slate; it’s a restored relationship that transforms us into generous forgivers ourselves.

Through this prayer (“give us this day our daily bread”) Jesus is teaching us that a life of dependence on God will free us from worrying about the future, and allow us to be content, caring, and courageous.

Heaven invades earth when we align our will with God’s will and this can only happen when we pray as Jesus taught us to pray and surrender fully to Him. Speaker: Pastor Peter Cho
