“Thy kingdom come. Thy will be done on earth, as it is in heaven.”
So often, our prayers focus on what we want God to do. We bring Him our needs, our desires, our plans, and our problems. And He invites us to do just that! But prayer is more than asking God to bless our plans. It’s allowing God to align our hearts with His purpose. Jesus didn’t teach us to pray, “Lord, make my will happen.” He taught us to pray, “Thy will be done.”
So today, instead of asking God to change your circumstances, ask Him to change your heart so you desire what He desires. And remember, the greatest breakthrough in prayer may not be getting God to change our situation, but allowing Him to change us.
