God's Will Be Done


Here we continue our look at the Model Prayer.  We cover all this more on Sunday.  
Your will be done on earth as it is in heaven. This request makes the assumption that God’s will is done in heaven, but not on earth, yet (in the same full way). Sin and rebellion are not present in heaven, but interruptions are present on earth. We see that this is another request for the spreading of God’s kingdom rule on earth. It is primarily brought through the church as the agent of the kingdom. Our prayers are to be continual reminders to ourselves to “get with” the kingdom program. Sadly, too many believers live for the weekends and not for Christ’s kingdom.
God Bless
