3) Verse 11: Give us today our daily bread
In the time of Moses, until they entered into Canaan, produced their own crop, and settled in the land, God gave the people of Israel manna from heaven every morning (Ex 16:14-36).
Jesus said, however, that although the forefathers ate the manna that Moses gave, they died;
but that he gives the food that does not spoil, that endures to eternal life.
He said that this food was the living bread from heaven, his flesh and blood (Jn 6). Jesus himself is also the ‘Word’ as seen in 1 John 1.
The true daily bread that Jesus gives is the revealed word of the New Testament.
This revelation was sealed in God’s right hand in Revelation 5,
but Jesus opened it starting in Revelation 6, and thus,
gave it as ‘the manna from heaven’, as the real food that endures to eternal life.
The one who overcomes (i.e. the New John) in Revelation 10 is the only one through whom we can receive this (revelation).
모세 때는 이스라엘 백성에게 만나를 내려주셨다.
그 당시의 만나는 먹어도 죽었으나, 예수님이 주시는 ‘썩지 않는 양식’은
먹고 영원히 사는 양식이고, 그 양식은 하늘에서 내려온 산 떡
곧 ‘예수님의 피와 살’이었다. 그리고 예수님은 ‘말씀’이시다.
예수님께서 주실 일용할 참 양식은 신약의 계시(啓示) 말씀이다.
이 계시는 봉한 책을 예수님께서 계시록 6장에서부터 열어서 주신
‘하늘에서 온 만나’로서 영생하는 참 양식이다.
참 양식인 이 계시는 계시록 10장의 이긴 자 곧 새요한을 통해서만 받을 수 있다.

① Lead us not into temptation
Jesus told us to pray this because he knew what would take place at his Second Coming.
As seen in Matthew 24, nations will rise against nations and kingdom against kingdom.
At that time, many fall into deception and temptation so as to betray each other;
and as there is an increase of evil, the destroyer stands on the pulpit.
He is telling us to pray to not fall into these temptations and trials.
마태복음 24장에 본바, 나라와 나라, 민족과 민족이 대적하여 싸우겠고,
이 때 많은 사람이 미혹과 시험에 빠져 성도를 죽는 데로 잡아 주므로,
이 같은 시험에 빠지지 않게 해 달라고 기도하라는 말씀이다.

② But deliver us from the evil one
He is telling us to pray for deliverance from the destroyer during when he strikes and overtakes the chosen people.
멸망자가 선민을 치고 삼키는 때에 이 멸망자로부터 구원해 달라고 기도하라는 말씀이다.

③ For yours is the kingdom and the power and the glory forever. Amen.
It is only proper for the power and the glory to be God’s because he is the creator of everything, the Lord of all, and the Lord of lords (1 Cor 15:28; Ep 4:6; 1 Tm 6:15).
All created things must befittingly give glory to the maker (creator) of all beings.

● Verse 14-15: For if you forgive men when they sin against you,
your heavenly Father will also forgive you.
But if you do not forgive men their sins, your Father will not forgive your sins.
Jesus spoke about forgiveness as follows.
In Matthew 18:21-35, the one whose master canceled his debt of ten thousand talents did not forgive his servant who owed him a hundred denarii, but had him thrown into prison until he could pay back the debt.
The master, having heard this, called in the one whose debt he canceled, and asked why he threw his servant in prison instead of canceling his debt of a hundred denarii, when the master has canceled his own debt entirely.
He then said that he too shall be thrown into jail, until he should pay back all that he owed.
This is a moral teaching regarding forgiveness.
One who does not forgive others will not be forgiven.
남을 용서하지 않으면 자기도 용서받지 못한다.

● Verse 33: Seek first his kingdom and his righteousness.
What kingdom is this referring to?
It is indeed referring to heaven.
God’s kingdom (heaven) fulfills here on earth as it is in heaven,
and it is to this place that heaven (above) comes down.
This heaven is the kingdom that he told us to seek.
This kingdom is the sealed twelve tribes of New Spiritual Israel (Rv 7, 14).
We must seek and find this kingdom which God and the angels are with.
Furthermore, ‘his righteousness’ that we must seek is the revealed word and faith, both of which can be found at this kingdom. (Rv 10; 14:1-5)
God’s will, as well as the objective of our faith that the 66 books of the Bible points to, is the twelve tribes of New Spiritual Israel, the kingdom that is created here on earth as it is heaven.
This is the place we as believers must go to.
