Wherefore, may the kingdom of God go forth, that the kingdom of heaven may come, that thou, O God, mayest be glorified in heaven so on earth, that thine enemies may be subdued; for thine is the honor, power and glory, forever and ever. Amen. (D & C 65:6)
The Kingdom of God and the Kingdom of Heaven are often used synonymously without much distinction between them. They do have many similarities, i.e., the ruling power, government organization, and purpose. The main distinction is locality. The Kingdom of Heaven is God’s kingdom in the heavens, while the Kingdom of God can be either in heaven or on the earth.
The Kingdom of Heaven is interwoven so closely with the earth that there is a great connection between them. The Lord’s prayer states, “Thy Kingdom come. Thy will be done in earth, as it is in heaven.” (Matt. 6:10) When we do the will of God, then we will experience a little of the spirit of the Kingdom of Heaven here on earth.
