Have you ever thought about what Jesus meant when he prayed this phrase? It came directly after the disciples asked him how to pray. So, He started by making one of the most bold and little accepted statements of His ministry. May the Kingdom of God come to Earth and may His Will be done here on Earth just like it is in Heaven. (Matthew 6:10)
I believe that this statement has been under evaluated, and suppressed. Since it is part of what we have called the “Lord’s Prayer” it has been clumped together with the entire prayer and not looked at and put into practice.
Jesus prayed this and what He prayed came to pass. What he asked His disciples to do it was done and what He asked them to pray came to pass. So here he tells them to pray this way….”Our Father who is in Heaven holy is your Name, Thy kingdom come thy will be done on Earth as it is in heaven.”
Do you dare? Do you dare pray this way and with it take a stand to walk like it is unfolding before you? It is a wonderful thing to be saved and going to heaven but it is the ability to bring the Kingdom of God to the needy and the hurt, to heal the land, to bring stability to the economy, to stand in the way of tyranny and violence and to defy nature that makes us truly Ambassadors of this heavenly Kingdom.
