As Above, So Below

'Your kingdom come. Your will be done, On earth as it is in heaven. (Matthew 6:10)

Here is the way that The Message bible expresses this verse:

Set the world right; Do what's best-- as above, so below.

When we ask for God's kingdom to come and His will to be done we are asking for a heavenly influence to come into our lives and our world. Jesus included this as He taught His followers to pray because He knew what heaven is like. Often we do not understand what this looks like. It is at those times when we need to pray those words.

Father we earnestly ask for heaven to come to earth. We pray that your kingdom would come.. that good news would be proclaimed to the poor.. healing would come to the sick.. those in bondage would be set free.. and broken hearts would be mended.

Amen
