In Bro Tommy’s sermon titled “Your Kingdom Come,” part of the series “Lord, Teach Us to Pray,” he underlines the profound significance of supplicating for the realization of God’s kingdom and His divine will. He kickstarts his discourse by enhancing a casual atmosphere, recounting an amusing story about a church picnic event and his signature peach cobbler.In the core of his address, Bro Tommy centers on the essence of God’s kingdom, delineating it as a realm filled with peace, joy, health, and love, where God’s will reigns supreme. He explains that when we invoke ‘your kingdom come,’ we are expressing a desire for the rule of God in our lives. Tayloring an ideological link between ‘your kingdom come’ from the Lord’s Prayer to the kingdom of God, he reiterates that such invocation affirms our faith in God’s wisdom and dominion in our lives.Bro Tommy elucidates the three integral parts of ‘your kingdom come, your will be done’ as: the enthronement of Christ in each individual’s life, aiding others in finding Christ, and harmonizing our lives with God’s will. He brings in personal anecdotes and scriptural narratives to expound these notions. He motivates his congregation to relinquish their control, surrendering to God, and pray for others to adopt this surrender too.Burrowing deeper into the purpose of prayer, Bro Tommy implies that prayer is not a tool for implementing our will in heaven, but a way of attuning our hearts to divine will. He further underscores that prayer does not serve to alter God’s will but to permit Him to act according to His will in our lives, thereby realizing His divine purposes.In his closing remarks, Bro Tommy inspires the congregation to beseech for the execution of God’s will on earth just as it is done in heaven. His sermon encourages people to gratefully center their prayers more on the desires of God rather than their own, laying out the importance of thankfulness as the core of our prayers. Through “Your Kingdom Come,” Bro Tommy brilliantly motivates his congregants to yearn and pray for the advent of God’s kingdom and fulfillment of His divine will.
