Kingdom. It is a realm or region where someone or something is dominant. Why do we need to pray and ask God to bring His kingdom to earth? How does the "earth" realm differ from the "heavenly" realm when it comes to responding to god's authority?

The next few minutes will be an opportunity to think carefully about some words that you have probably repeated over and over again.
