Thy Kingdom Come

Question 191:  What do we pray for in the second petition?

Answer:  In the second petition, (which is, Thy kingdom come,) . . we pray, that the kingdom of sin and Satan may be destroyed, the gospel propagated throughout the world, the Jews called, the fullness of the Gentiles brought in; . . and that He would be pleased so to exercise the kingdom of His power in all the world, as may best conduce to these ends.

       -- Westminster Larger Catechism (1647 AD)
