THY KINGDOM COME

LIGHT FOR THE WAY
   (Daily Devotional)

Teusday 12th April 2016

Topic: Thy Kingdom Come

Text: "…Thy kingdom come, Thy will be done, as in
heaven, so in earth" (Luke 11:2).

This excerpt from Luke 11 is a famous line from
what is commonly called the Lord’s Prayer.
Truthfully, Jesus didn’t pray this prayer just so
we could repeat it. It is actually a guideline on
how to pray and which things to prioritize in
prayer. Among them was a call upon God
for His Kingdom rule to have the preeminence
and that His will would be manifest in our lives.
However, the specific words in the prayer, “thy
kingdom come, thy will be done,” are spoken not
as formal requests, but rather as a strong
decree. This seems to be the one part of the
prayer that you almost want to repeat verbatim.
It isn’t that you are commanding God, but rather
it seems that you should say it in order to
command yourself. You are telling yourself that
you will live under God’s Kingdom rule and that
you won’t allow yourself to get outside of His
will.
Declare today for God’s Kingdom rule to
manifest over you and that you will walk in His
will. Say it many times. There is something about
your ears hearing you say it that solidifies its
truth in your heart. With God’s Kingdom rule
upon you and His will being your priority, you
can’t help but experience breakthrough. His
Kingdom is upon you now!

PRAYER
Father, I declare Your Kingdom come and Your will
be done in my life. I make this decree and say it
shall come to pass and cause me to live in
breakthrough every day. In the Name of Jesus,
amen.
