Q123: What is the second petition?
A123: Thy kingdom come; that is, so govern us by Thy Word and Spirit, that we submit ourselves to Thee always more and more;[1] preserve and increase Thy Church;[2] destroy the works of the devil, every power that exalts itself against Thee, and all wicked devices formed against Thy Holy Word,[3] until the fullness of Thy kingdom come,[4] wherein Thou shalt be all in all.[5]
