“Great and wonderful are your works, Jehovah God, . . . King of eternity.”—REV. 15:3.
CAN YOU ANSWER?
How did Jehovah become King in 1914, and what were some of the Kingdom’s early accomplishments?
How has Jesus used the Messianic Kingdom to refine, educate, and organize God’s loyal subjects on earth?
When will our prayer “let your Kingdom come” be answered fully, and what will that mean?
ON A mountain near Capernaum in the spring of 31 C.E., Jesus Christ taught his followers to pray: “Let your Kingdom come.” (Matt. 6:10) Today, many doubt if the Kingdom will ever come. However, we are confident that our sincere prayers for God’s Kingdom to come will be answered.
2 Jehovah will use the Kingdom to unify his family in heaven and on earth. That divine purpose will be realized. (Isa. 55:10, 11) In fact, Jehovah has already become King in our day! The thrilling events of the past 100 years are proof of this. God is performing great and wonderful works in behalf of millions of loyal subjects. (Zech. 14:9; Rev. 15:3) And yet, Jehovah’s becoming King is not the same as the coming of God’s Kingdom for which Jesus taught us to pray. How do these events differ, and how do they affect us?
