The Lord's Prayer can be rote and without thought or true petition of the heart, or it can become a divine force unleashing God's glorious blessing. One may pray "Thy kingdom come" without any regard for the intent of Jesus, or one may pray "Thy kingdom come" and the world itself begins to change. That is the power for daily living I am looking for. But how is "Thy kingdom come" a prayer that literally changes the world?
Pray then like this: "Our Father in heaven, hallowed be your name. Your kingdom come…" (Matt. 6:9-10).
