something that inspires awe and reverence
Your kingdom come, We are anticipating and having faith in
the return of Christ and also seeking that God will set up His kingdom in our hearts.
Your will be done The request for “thy will be done” is
God’s invitation to “join him in making things down here the way they are up there.” Which can be done by following the 7 gifts of the holy spirit.
Do the Lord’s will as the angels do, and follow the 7 gifts of the holy spirit and always have faith.

things that are against God's will.
