Part 6 --- LET YOUR DESIRES BE DONE ON EARTH --- Obedience

As we just discovered, there is a secret will and a revealed will. The secret will of Elohim cannot be known to us because Deuteronomy 29:29 says the secret thing belongs to YHVH. It is the revealed will of God that belongs to you and me. It is the revealed will of YHVH that is opposed by the enemy and that is the will we pray be fulfilled in our lives. The revealed will is already given clearly to us in YHVH’s Word. We know from His precious Word what His will is. For example:

 It’s not His will that any man should perish. We know that’s His clear and perfect will.
 It’s His will that we all be forgiven from our sins. We know that’s His will.
 It’s His will that we all be healed from our diseases. We know that’s His will and much more.

Yet, none of these promises can be ours without prayer. That’s why our Adonai said we are to pray Thy will be done so that we will be living in His will. Remember what the Scriptures says, “And this is the boldness that we have in Him that if we ask whatever according to His desire He hears us. And if we know that He hears us, whatever we ask, we know that we have the petitions that we have asked of Him” (1 John 5:14-15). So when Adonai said pray Your desires be done, He was saying pray that all of the promises be yours. Psalm 103 says that the angels obey YHVH swiftly at the mere sound of His Voice. Yeshua is saying that we ought to obey YHVH as quickly as the angels obey Him. So when we pray, “Let Your desire be done on earth as it is in heaven,” it conveys the thought: Adonai, reveal to me Your will and help me obey it as quickly as the angels obey it.
