Lord, Let Your Will Be Done

When we do not obey God, we are liable to judgment and others who come under us may receive the judgment of God because of our sheer disobedience or we led them astray.

Throughout his earthly life, Jesus taught us one great teaching which is Doing the will of the Father. He says my food is to do the will of the Father. In the Lord’s Prayer, we see that the will of God is key to all our petitions and supplications.

We must accept and recognize the will of God in all that we do. The recognition of God’s will helps us to humble ourselves and as we place everything in God’s loving care we become consoled.

At the Garden of Gethsemane, Jesus was troubled in the heart because of what He was about to experience. He prayed to the Father that, ‘I wish this chalice should pass over him. Not my will but let you will be done.

Then an angel came to console him. That should be our mentality in our prayer. When we submit everything and who we are into God’s hand we are consoled and nothing can snatch us from his hands.
