February 16, 2023 - Matthew 6:10
“Let your kingdom come. Let your will be done on earth as it is done in heaven.” Matthew 6:10 GW
Jesus, you prayed this when teaching us how to pray. We want to pray it as well. Let your will be done here on earth just like it is in heaven. Usher in your kingdom into the earth. Lord, we know that you do show up on earth and move in powerful ways, but often it comes through us or in response to our actions and prayers. Holy Spirit, we want to invite you to come and work through us. Show us how to live in a way that we bring your kingdom to earth. Let our lives reflect who you are. Let us walk in obedience to all that you ask so that you can move through us like you want. Lord, let your will be done in our lives. Uproot the things that are keeping you from doing just that. Open our eyes to the things that we are allowing in our lives that are holding you back from moving fully in our lives. Lord, we want your will to be done in our lives. Let your kingdom come in and through us.
We want to see the earth changed. We want to see the lost encounter you. We want to be a willing vessel that you can use to do those things. Uproot any lie that tells us that we can’t make a difference. Uproot any lies that tell us that we are insignificant. The Bible is full of stories of you using insignificant people to change the course of history. That is how you prefer to move. You are just looking for the willing heart that is after you. Lord, are we willing to do whatever? Are we willing to go wherever? Are we willing to say whatever? Move in us and get us to that place where we will do anything you ask of us. Holy Spirit, we want you to use us. Let your will be done in us and let your kingdom come through us.
In Jesus name, amen.
