Matthew 6:10
"Your kingdom come, your will be done in earth as it is in heaven." NIV
"Thy kingdom come. Thy will be done in earth, as it is in heaven." KJV
Do we really understand when we pray this prayer that we are asking for the kingdom of this world (the kingdom of darkness that now rules earth and the hearts of men, that hinders us from truly knowing God) to become His kingdom. We are asking for heaven on earth! For the earth to be saved! When that happens, His perfect will is accomplished and His kingdom will reign everywhere.
Heavenly Father, help us to understand when we pray. Keep us from repeating prayers until they have no real meaning for us. Give us fresh prayer lives to commune with You in a fresh way every day. And help us to listen when You speak to us. In Jesus' name we pray, Amen.
