Praying to See God’s Will on Earth
“In this manner, therefore, pray: Our Father in heaven, hallowed be Your name.”
Matthew 6:9-10
January 13, 2021
Ponder This
When you pray, “Our Father in heaven, hallowed be Your name. Your kingdom come. Your will be done on earth as it is in heaven,” do you realize that this prayer has not yet been answered, but it will be answered? Jesus Christ is literally, actually, visibly, bodily coming back to this Earth. Do you believe that? Do you think that Jesus Christ would have taught us to pray this prayer if it would not have been answered? His kingdom has not come yet on Earth. His will is not being done on Earth. But it shall be because our Lord taught us to pray just that!
Practice This
When you read or watch the news today, how do you see God’s will not being done on Earth? Ask the Lord that His will would be brought to Earth. Pray for the people involved in each story; pray for their welfare and their salvation.

Real Truth Never Changes
Real truth never changes, and the truth about government is that it is God who ordains it, leaders who are responsible for it, and citizens who are accountable to it. The privilege of being called Americans comes with significant responsibilities—to God, to each other, and to the world.
