Matthew 6:10 (NIV) Your kingdom come, your will be done…
Prayer is not getting God to do what we want. Rather, people “need to invite God’s rule and power into the affairs of their lives through prayer. For if humans will not pray, God’s rule in their circumstances is forfeited. This thought runs counter to the common supposition that if God wants to do something, He will do it. This sorry strain of fatalism infests most minds. But the idea of man as a pawn moved by the Almighty at His whim is totally removed from the truth revealed in Scripture. Each human being is responsible for inviting God’s rule. We are not helpless victims of circumstance.” Followers of Jesus can expect victory when they pray. Pray for God’s rule on earth as in heaven.
