“Your Kingdom come, your will be done on earth as it is in heaven,” Matthew 6:10.
The phrase “Your kingdom come” is a reference to God’s spiritual power over His people as reigning King, King that is and King to come. God will move with all royal power and majesty for His reign.
He reigns. When you say He reigns you’re saying, “Lord you bring wholeness and fullness to my life. God you are in control of my life. You have dominion, and all authority as ruling King. We are a new people in a new position—for You, Oh Lord, have given us liberty and right.”
‘He reigns’ means that God rules over all things; He governs all things; He prevails over all; and He has dominion over all things. We are God’s kingdom [His people], and God is our ruling King. We are in covenant with Him—one with Him, living for Him, and doing His will. It’s not what we want or say, but what He wants and says.
This is God’s covenant: You are covered under God’s ‘assurance’ not insurance.
Insurance is a contract that transfers the risk of financial loss.
Assurance is a positive confidence and promise.
Insurance is a payment after losses.
Assurance is a payment before loss.
Insurance is a payment of a premium.
Assurance is God’s peace and consolation. Know that He will keep you in perfect peace when your mind is stayed on Him. You are in Covenant, because God’s kingdom was announced in covenant with Abraham.
God promised Abraham that “I will make you the father of a great people if you obey Me. I will give you the land of Israel, life to your descendants, and righteousness will be upon you,” Genesis 17.
“I say unto you, that many shall come from the east and west, and shall sit down with Abraham, and Isaac, and Jacob in the kingdom of heaven,” Matthew 8:11.
In God all evil will be destroyed, and God will establish the new heaven and the earth.
“And I [John] saw a new heaven and a new earth: for the first heaven and the first earth was passed away,” Revelation 21:1.
When you pray “Your will be done,” you are praying that God’s perfect purpose will be accomplished in this world as it is in heaven. We are asking God to move by His ‘sovereign will’ not His ‘permissible will.’
Sovereign will is God’s ‘perfect will. God is the ‘sovereign’ Lord of all by an incontestable right. As creator, possessor of heaven and earth, He has absolute right and full authority to do or allow whatever He desires. God is the supreme authority and allthings, not some things, but all things are under His control.
“I [God] formed the light and created the darkness; I made well-being the good and I created calamity and event causing great and often sudden damage, distress and disaster. I am the Lord, who does all these things,” Isaiah 45:7.
“Let the earth open, that salvation and righteousness may bear fruit; let the earth cause them both to sprout [grow] in you. I the Lord have created it,” Isaiah 45:8.
‘Permissive will’: God will permit sin to occur. God allows man to rebel against Him, and in this God permits people to do whatever they want.
We must become a people that walk in the righteousness of God and live a life of salvation.
You have the choice to obey or disobey.
Make it your desire to do God’s will, so: “Your kingdom will come; your will be done, on earth as it is in heaven.”
