When Jesus was teaching how to pray, part of what is
commonly referred to today as the Our Father prayer says, “Your kingdom come,
Your will be done on earth as it is in heaven.” God longs to give you a glimpse
of heaven while you‘re still here on earth. He wants to show you His wonderful
plan and bring it to pass in your life right now.
Have you ever thought about how God’s will is accomplished
in heaven? In heaven, God’s will is automatic. There are no opposing forces of
darkness or anything that would come against His will. On earth, we have to reject
the negative, self-defeating thoughts and stand against the opposing forces that
come against His will. We must make a commitment and choose His will on a daily
basis – in our thoughts, words and actions.
I want to encourage you to open your heart to the will of
God. As it says in Ephesians 6, you will be empowered by your union with Him. Just
because you may not feel that way or see physical evidence of it today, keep declaring
what God says about you so you can be empowered to overcome whatever opposition
you face. Stand strong in your faith and watch as God's will comes to pass in
your life, here and now!
