Question. Go forward.
Answer: Secondly, we pray that God’s kingdom come, that is, that he suffer not the divine truth of his word ( and Gospel of Christ ) whereby he reigneth in good and godly men’s hearts, to lie hidden in darkness ; but that it daily more and more be made manifest and well known to all men, being instructed with the heavenly doctrine of the same. And that he would resist and overthrow the craft and violence of Satan, and wicked men, that labour to darken the truth with lies, or to oppress and root it out by cruelty.

Question. Say on.
Answer. We pray that God by his holy Spirit would illuminate, and govern the hearts of all such as be of his Church, wherein he reigneth specially as in his Kingdom ; and that he would strengthen them with his aid and Power as his Soldiers, that they may earnestly fight against, and subdue the Devil, the World, and the lusts of the flesh, to the enlarging of his Kingdom here upon the earth. And that lastly, all his, and our enemies being utterly trodden down, God may gloriously reign and triumph over all, and we by Christ may finally, as his Children and Heirs, be made partakers of his everlasting Kingdom.
