Thy kingdom one, thy will be done, on earth as it is in heaven. You probably do know that phrase is part of the Lord's Prayer. You may even know it is found in Matthew 6:10. But do you know what is being asked and how it will be fulfilled?
In haven, there are no rebellious ones. There are none who do not accept Jesus as Lord. Everyone is eager to serve God without question. Whatever the Father says is accepted without question. Every thought, every word and every deed is in accord with the will of the Father.In heaven, God's will is fully embraced by everyone.
On earth - not! On earth, many do not believe there is a God. Of those who do believe, too many do not really want to serve. Instead, they want God to serve them. We, His children, question the validity of His choices at times. We say things like, "How cold you let happen?" We choose to do other than what we know He wants..
Here on earth, we need a revival. We need to be reconnected with our God so that He might fully reign in our lives. We need to better connect with the world around us that they might become connected to the Father and that ultimately, He might reign in every heart.
That might seem like an impossible task. And "with man this is impossible, but for God, nothing is impossible" (Matt 19:26). I know God can do this but I do not know if or when. I also know that it would take a revival in His people. We need to be praying that God will revive us and draw the world to Him through us so that the kingdom can come on earth as it is in heaven.
Jus' Sayn.
