123. Q.

What is the second petition?

A.
Your kingdom come.
That is:
So rule us by your Word and Spirit
that more and more we submit to you. 1
Preserve and increase your church. 2
Destroy the works of the devil,
every power that raises itself against you,
and every conspiracy against your holy Word. 3
Do all this
until the fullness of your kingdom comes,
wherein you shall be all in all. 4
