Matthew 6:9-15
God's Will Be Done
9 “This, then, is how you should pray:
“‘Our Father in heaven,
hallowed be your name,
10 your kingdom come,
your will be done
on earth as it is in heaven.
11 Give us today our daily bread.
12 Forgive us our debts,
as we also have forgiven our debtors.
13 And lead us not into temptation,
but deliver us from the evil one.’
14 For if you forgive men when they sin against you, your heavenly Father will also forgive you. 15 But if you do not forgive men their sins, your Father will not forgive your sins.
God created this world and made you apart of it...Jesus tells us that God's Kingdom come, God's Will will be done on earth as it is in heaven...So let us look at this world as God's world and His Kingdom...In believing this you can be good or one can be evil...One can believe in God or one does not have to believe in Him...But if you believe in God, it is best you follow God's Word and His rules...So pray that you will forgive others...Forgiveness is one of His rules...And I would add that forgiveness is a great rule, that He created for us...And I say for us, because Him and His Son and the Spirit do not need forgiveness...
Pastor and author Tony Evans says this about God's World and God's Kingdom, “It has nothing to do with whether you like God’s rules...It’s not your kingdom...If you want to operate by your own rules, then you need to go out and create your own world...But as long as you are in God’s world, where God has set the rules, you must abide by His rules or you become a rebel against His kingdom government.”...
