"Your Kingdom come, Your will be done, on earth as it is in Heaven."
Matthew 6:10 NKJV
The third major topic in our prayer outline is:
GENERAL PRIORITIES - Your Kingdom come. Declare that His Kingdom priorities shall be
established, in yourself, your loved ones, your church and your nation.
This part of the prayer asks for the establishment of God's rule in our lives, our situation and in the age to come. God's will on the earth today.
RT Kendall wrote in an email:
'There is no rebellion in Heaven; likewise there will be no rebellion in us when we say, 'Your will be done on earth, as it is in Heaven.'
There is much rebellion, hurt bad feeling, abuse and whatever else in this world today. However, as Christians God wants us to establish righteousness wherever we are. A good starting point is in this prayer. If we declare that God's Kingdom priorities are the way forward for us, then this is what will be established. We are declaring that we are living for God. There is no rebellion, hurt, bad feeling, abuse or whatever else in Heaven, so when we say, Your will be done on earth as it is in Heaven, this is our decree.
There is no swearing or cursing in Heaven so there won't be in our life as we say, 'Your will be done on earth as it is in Heaven'. It is the same with other things that are in our lives, such as anger, criticising and judging people. Then of course, the things that can so easily trip people up, like porn, adultery, homosexuality and any other things that the Holy Spirit flashes up. Getting into this part of the prayer and deciding that we mean business with God, has got to be a positive step in our walk with Him.
So, let us determine that whatever happens, we will endeavour to establish God's righteousness in all we do, say and think. It's like the old cliché, 'Would Jesus do this or say that?' That used to make us pull up in our tracks. Therefore, as this is totally from the mouth of Jesus, make it count for Him and your walk.

The Lord's Prayer Part 3
"Hallowed be Your name." Matthew 6:9. NKJV
The second major topic of our prayer outline is:
GOD'S PRESENCE - 'HALLOWED BE YOUR NAME'
Enter His presence through praise and call Him Father because of Christ's atoning blood.
"Enter into His gates with thanksgiving and into His courts with praise. Be thankful to Him and Bless His name.' Psalm 100:4-5
We should always enter into God's presence with a sound mind, not with an arrogant intrusion.
Hebrews 10:22, tells us, 'let us draw near with a true heart in full assurance of faith, having our hearts sprinkled from an evil conscience and our bodies washed with pure water.' In other words, we need to continuously draw near to God with a blameless heart and faith.
Hallowed be Your name, is like saying, 'Let Your name be held holy.' This enables us to give to God the unique place which His nature and character deserve and demand. The Greek word for Hallowed is hagios which is usually translated as holy. But the basic meaning is 'different,' or 'separated'. Something that is hagios is different from other things, Therefore, the petition, 'Hallowed be Your name,' means Let God's name be treated differently from other names. In other words, let God's name be above all other names.
The English word for this is reverence. God deserves to be reverenced. Martin Luther asked, 'How is God's name Hallowed among us?' His answer to this was, 'When both our life and doctrine are truly Christian’. Therefore, this means when our all is submitted to God. When we pray, 'Hallowed be Your name,' we need to mean it, otherwise it just becomes another ritualistic phrase of repetition, which is based on following others, not Our Father. We need to pray The Lord's Prayer daily if possible and allow it to be a fresh, thoughtful commitment to the Almighty God. After all, this is a sacred devotion of our feelings to God.

The Lord's Prayer Part 2
"Our Father in Heaven'. Matthew 6:9. NKJV
To emphasise the strong, intimate meaning of the term, 'Our Father,' William Barclay gives a wonderful example set in Roman times:
'There is an old Roman story which tells how a Roman emperor was enjoying a triumph. He had the privilege, which Rome gave to her great victors, of marching his troops through the streets of Rome with all his captured trophies and his prisoners in his train. So the emperor was on the march with his troops. The streets were lined with cheering people. The tall legionaries lined the streets' edges to keep people in their places. At one point on the triumphal route, there was a little platform where the empress and her family were sitting to watch the emperor go by in all the pride of his triumph. On the platform with his mother, was the emperor's youngest son, a little boy. As the emperor came near, the little boy jumped off the platform, burrowed through the crowd and tried to dodge between the legs of a legionnaire and to run out on the road to meet his father's chariot. The legionnaire stooped down and stopped him. He swung him up in his arms, 'You can't do that boy,' he said 'don't you know who that is in the chariot? That's the emperor. You can't run to his chariot.' And the little boy laughed down, 'He may be your emperor,' he said, 'but he's my father.' That's exactly the way the Christian feels towards God.' Copyright William Barclay.
Instead of, 'My Father,' God made this prayer personal to each one of us. The words, 'I, me or mine,' are not in the prayer. Jesus in life replaced these type of words with, 'We, us and ours'.
Even if we matter to no one else, we matter to God. He has given us back our self-respect. Did you get that? No matter what you have done, or been involved with; no matter how badly you may have messed something up or made a fool of yourself, Our Father in Heaven, has given you back your self-respect. You haven't had to earn it, He's given it to you, freely.
Tomorrow, we'll look a little closer at The Lord's Prayer. Have a great day!

The Lord's Prayer Part 1
"Our Father in Heaven," Matthew 6:9. NKJV
Note here, that Jesus didn't say, 'My', but 'Our.' The title of Father is much more intimate than the original name of Yahweh or Jehovah, which the Jews recognised God as. The Jews felt that 'Father', was too intimate, but not Jesus. The Apostle Paul wrote:
And because you are sons, God has sent forth the Spirit of His Son into your hearts, crying 'Abba Father'. Galatians 4:6
We have been adopted into God's family and we are His sons and He is Our Father. God provided our son ship through Jesus and assures us of it through the Spirit. Abba is the intimate Aramaic term of Father. Jesus used this Himself. Therefore, we can recognise God - Our Father as Our Daddy.
The Lord's Prayer is recognised as a prayer outline and has seven major topics. The first one is:
THE PATERNAL NEED - 'OUR FATHER'.
When we pray this, we can expect all of our needs to be met by the loving kindness of Our Father.
When we stop and consider this - just who God is, the creator of the universe and yet through His Son Jesus, He is Our Father - Our Daddy. It also shows us the heart of Jesus. He had every right to say, 'My Father', but He chose to share this privilege with each one of us.
And there is no need to feel insecure that Our Father is in Heaven and Jesus, the Son of God is at His right hand. We're not alone because Jesus sent the Comforter, the Helper:
'Nevertheless, I tell you the truth. It is to your advantage that I go away, for if I do not go away, the helper (the Holy Spirit) will not come to you; but if I depart, I will send Him to you.'
John 16:7. NKJV
It's never God's intention that we be alone. The Holy Spirit was sent to us, to dwell within us and be our helper; our power and our joy until we go to be with Our Father in Heaven, one day.
Until then, draw on His love, His Power, His joy, His comfort and His direction each and every day.

It's time for healing
"they will lay hands on the sick and they will recover." Mark 16:18. NKJV
People are being healed all over the world at this very moment. Someone, somewhere has taken Jesus' words and laid their hands on some sick person and they have been healed. Hallelujah, that is amazing. This is what the scripture means, to lay on hands on the sick and pray that they will be well. It was not a time-limited thing. It was not meant just for the disciples and apostles, but for every bible-believing person throughout the world.
Then if that is the case, why are some healed and some not? Many times, we have all prayed for someone and they have not been healed. This may have led some people to shy away from this type of ministry, to avoid disappointment or embarrassment; and that is very understandable. From time to time, we have all received prayer for healing and not really felt that any, significant thing has happened. We don't have the answers for some of these occasions, but we should never, shy away from praying for people.
A closer look at this scripture, reveals some interesting facts. If we look at the King James text - old and new, we read: 'they will recover.' Now this brings a whole new meaning to being healed. Where some versions read that the person will be healed, this is not always at the very time that prayer takes place. Many people have felt - pray-er and sick person, that as soon as hands are laid upon them, then a miracle will take place and they will be instantly healed. Yes, that can be the case, many times. However, not all the time. When it feels like nothing has happened, don't give up - again, pray-er or sick person, there may be a delay because of a recovery time. When a person goes into hospital for surgery, before returning to their ward, they go to the recovery section until they wake up. When they have been checked over, that is the time when they return to the ward. However, there is still a recovery time to undergo, before they are well and back on their feet. The NIV says something similar, this reads: 'they will get well,' again, this is not instant. They will have to undergo a recovery time.
So therefore, this may explain, on occasions, why there is no visible, instant healing. A person may have to go through a recovery time, but as each day goes by, they become stronger and stronger, until they are healed, totally.
Never fear, or become disillusioned when you receive prayer and nothing seems to happen; give it time and something will. My own healing was not instant, it took place overnight while I was asleep, and even then, I was not totally well. However, over the course of the next few hours, total healing came. I had to go through the recover time. And it may be the same for you, too.
Again, if you pray for someone to be healed, refuse to become discouraged. You've done nothing wrong. There is no particular formula except, 'In the Name of Jesus.' Wait for the recovery period:

Don't forget to pray
"(16) Rejoice always, (17) pray without ceasing, (18) in everything give thanks, for this is the will of God in Christ Jesus for you." 1 Thessalonians 5:16-18. NKJV
Prayer is communication with Our Heavenly Father. With prayer, we praise and worship Him and speak intimately to Him. We also ask Him for protection from evil forces.
Psalm 91:2-4 says, (2)'I will say of the LORD, He is my refuge and my fortress; my God in Him I will trust. (3) Surely, He shall deliver you from the snare of the Fowler and from the perilous pestilence, (4) He shall cover you with His feathers and under His wings, you shall take refuge.'
Hence, as we ask Him, He places a hedge of protection around us to protect us from enemy attack. But for this to happen, we have to ask Him, we have to pray. William Barclay quotes a Rabbi as saying, 'He who prays within his house, surrounds it with a wall that is stronger than iron.'
The Jews were committed to prayer and had regular times for this. Many of the prayers could be repetitive and of a ritualistic nature quoting rigid prayers over and over again. Some may have just gone through this ritual because of an obligation. William Barclay further comments, 'As Christians there are many occasions when we do precisely the same with the prayer which Christ taught us to pray.'
The Lord's Prayer should always be prayed from the heart, never as a formality that we first learnt at school.
Even our quiet times with God may fall into a kind of formalism, where we pray from a list in a rigid and ritualistic manner. We need to pray in the Spirit and avoid the risk of repetition. Don't forget that prayer is a two-way conversation - us and God. We need to wait and give time for Him to speak to us.
On your next quiet time, why not just sit in the quietness of your prayer-cupboard, before God and just listen for His voice and leading. It may take practise and be difficult to leave the prayer list out for a time. But it may lead you to a deeper place with your Father.

SAD
"Why am I discouraged? Why is my heart so sad? I will put my hope in God! I will praise Him again - my Saviour and my God." Psalm 42:5. NLT
There are so many occasions when we feel extremely tired; so down in the dumps; irritable and just seem to have lost our get up and go. There can be a a great darkness over us that takes away any positive feelings we have, and replaces it with a 'Can't be bothered attitude' Now this may be depression. Many men of God suffered this on occasions - King David and Elijah spring to mind.
Periodically, we can begin to feel this way and no amount of prayer seems to lift this on a permanent basis. We need to consider what has been happening to us over a set time. We can often pinpoint where things seemed to go wrong. However, there are times when we can't.
If you're feeling this way at this time, sit and reflect on how your life has been over the past few months and how you have been coping. There may be an obvious answer to this. However, you may be one of the many who go with the weather. This affects some, especially when it is persistent rain and one can't get about without getting saturated, time after time. It may be the seasons that are affecting you. Many people, as soon as the clocks go back and the darker evenings come upon us, their feelings become lower than normal. The organisation MIND discuss this in detail. Here is an excerpt:
Seasonal affective disorder (SAD) is a type of depression that you experience during particular seasons or times of year. Depression is a low mood that lasts for a long time, and affects your everyday life.If you have SAD, you'll experience depression during some seasons in particular, or because of certain types of weather.It's common to be affected by changing seasons and weather, or to have times of year when you feel more or less comfortable. For example, you might find that your mood or energy levels drop when it gets colder or warmer, or notice changes in your sleeping or eating patterns.But if your feelings are interfering with your day to day life, it could be a sign that you have depression – and if they keep coming back at the same time of year, doctors might call this seasonal affective disorder or 'seasonal depression'.If you have SAD, you might experience some of the signs and symptoms below. But it's different for different people, and can vary season to season, so you might also have other kinds of feelings which aren't listed here:

- feeling sad, low, tearful, guilty or hopeless
- changes in your appetite, for example feeling more hungry or wanting more snacks
- being more prone to physical health problems, such as colds, infections or other illnesses
- losing interest in sex or physical contact
It may be that the way that you are feeling at this moment, is because of SAD. If so, a visit to your GP may be the answer. Many Christians have suffered from some type of depression on occasions; for some it is ongoing. It is nothing to be ashamed of. You may feel that because you're a Christian, you shouldn't feel this way. If you do, then you are very wrong.
Make a quality decision to put this right. God will help - big time, but occasionally we have to admit we need professional help. If this is you, don't put it off, go for it, TODAY!
